Auggie CLI 1.2.0 Release Notes

Auggie 1.2.0 is the first stable release of Auggie 1.x, a major rewrite of the Auggie CLI built on the open-source pi coding agent. npm install -g @augmentcode/auggie now installs 1.x, and 0.x installs with auto-update enabled upgrade automatically.

Breaking Changes

  • Personas replaced by agents: /persona is gone; use custom agents, rules, and /permissions instead.
  • Plan mode shortcut: Shift+Tab now changes reasoning effort instead of toggling plan mode.
  • New line shortcut: Option/Alt+Enter now queues the message as a follow-up instead of inserting a new line. Use Shift+Enter, or Ctrl+J in any terminal.
  • Tool names: Tools are now read, edit, write, grep, find, and bash. Hooks using the old names still match for now.
  • Hook payloads: bash hooks no longer list changed files; use git status or git diff instead.
  • Bash output: The agent sees up to the last 2000 lines or 50 KB of bash output, plus a path to the full output, instead of a ~100-line excerpt.
  • Removed: Inline completions while typing, and Gist-based session sharing.
  • Staying on 0.x: Install @augmentcode/auggie@v0-release and set "autoUpdate": false in ~/.augment/settings.json (or AUGMENT_DISABLE_AUTO_UPDATE=1); otherwise 0.x upgrades back to 1.x.

New Features

  • Faster terminal UI: A new renderer keeps scrolling and streaming smooth, and every menu supports type-to-filter.
  • Session tools: /tree browses conversation branches, /worktree manages git worktrees, /export and /import save and resume sessions, and /compact summarizes on demand.
  • Side questions: /btw answers a one-shot question while the main agent continues; discard it or keep the answer in the conversation.
  • Reasoning effort: /effort picks how much a reasoning model thinks, or /effort <level> sets it directly. Shift+Tab, and Tab in /model, also change it.
  • Getting started: A skippable introduction appears in chat after login.
  • Daemon error logs: An Errors tab shows every retained error with a count, and Logs and Errors wrap long entries with independent scrolling.
  • Windows background commands: The terminal UI supports background commands on Windows.

Changes

  • MCP tool discovery: Choose Automatic, Always on, or Always off in /settings.
  • Resume keeps launch options: Resuming a session restores its --permission and --add-workspace values unless you pass them again.

Bug Fixes

  • Searches stay in your project because Augment models now know the current working directory.
  • A local MCP server that fails during startup is retried automatically, and a server that reconnects after sign-in shows as connected again.
  • Ctrl+J inserts a new line in terminals with enhanced key reporting.
  • Hide thinking no longer leaves a Thinking... line in each reply.
  • Background Git and SSH operations no longer take over daemon dashboard keyboard input or hang waiting for authentication.
  • The indexing percentage no longer shows 100% while files are still pending.
  • /plugins shows each plugin's commands, agents, rules, MCP servers, hooks, and skills, including for disabled plugins.
