Dyad0.7.5
Copy app, Smart Context gets smarter and quality improvements
Dyad v0.7.5 makes it easy to copy apps, enhances Smart Context for Dyad Pro members, and includes a number of improvements and bug fixes.
Highlights
Copy apps
As shown in the video above, copying an app is now dead-simple. You can choose to copy with or without Git history.
In most cases, copying with history is preferred. But if you’re encountering a weird Git issue, copying without history lets you start fresh—without affecting the original app’s history.
Note: Copying an app does not copy the Supabase project. You can manually select the same Supabase project for the copied app, or choose a different one.
Smarter Smart Context
As a quick recap, Smart Context is a Dyad Pro feature that uses a lightweight model to identify the most relevant files in your codebase for your current chat. This dramatically reduces token usage for the flagship model.
Since the v0.7.0 release, we’ve made Smart Context even smarter. Now, the AI is aware of all files in your codebase and can ask for more files if the initial set doesn’t provide enough context. This strikes a good balance between optimizing AI credit usage (up to 3× more messages) and maintaining high-quality responses.
Native Git support (experimental)
You can now enable native Git support in Settings. This switches Dyad to use your computer’s Git CLI instead of the bundled Isomorphic Git JavaScript library.
You'll need to install Git separately to use this. The main benefit is speed—native Git is significantly faster. If you encounter any issues, please let us know!
Improvements
Smarter system instructions
Based on a user report that the AI was hallucinating and importing files that didn’t exist, we’ve updated the system prompt to reduce this behavior, helping the AI create all the files it references more reliably.
Misc
Some smaller updates include:
- Clearer error messages when a Supabase project can't be found.
- Dyad Pro members can now view remaining AI credits directly in the app (previously only available on the Dyad member site).
- Dyad Pro promo message in chat no longer appear if Dyad Pro is disabled.
- The Next.js template no longer errors out when using npm (Dyad tries
pnpmfirst, withnpmas a fallback).
Other notes
Behind the scenes, Dyad now has 40 automated tests—a long-term investment in ensuring product quality.
