Working Copy

Working Copy 6.8.0 has a new agent mode you can hook up to Anthropic, Google, OpenAI and custom (Ollama) LLM endpoints for natural language Git stuff.

You won't be vibe-coding without a compiler or way to run tests, but it can be very useful to ask when things changed and have the agent check commit history or make small edits.

@WorkingCopy @palmin glorious. Some days after an ugly merge I go “please fix this merge mess” and wait :-)

@Migueldeicaza @WorkingCopy You are going to need a high-end model for that. 😬

@palmin @WorkingCopy true - it does work wonders :-)

@palmin @Migueldeicaza @WorkingCopy I’m somewhat curious how well / not well the on-device model worked for the simplistic cases.
Show threadAnders Borum1d ago

@grork @Migueldeicaza @WorkingCopy I disabled the on-device model for the App Store release as it ran out of context window and got confused almost immediately during beta testing.

But it is very good at tool calling before running out of context and I hope/expect iOS 27 to include a model that can power this Repository Agent.

@WorkingCopy Could we get some way to dock it, or have it open as a right-hand inspector panel? It's a super useful feature and possibly first of it's kind on iOS - an agent with visibility of folders and the filesystem, but the way it's stuck as a tiny little window that covers some other UI is a bit of a shame.

@SalvagedTechnic I agree that there are certainly some thing that could be improved in that respect and am experimenting. Next step might be to allow it to be an independent window on iPad.

Note that you can drag the top of the panel to move it.
