This article details the updates to agent-shell version 0.47.1, a native Emacs mode for interacting with LLM agents powered by ACP. Key improvements include renaming 'claude-code-acp' to 'claude-agent-acp', support for new agents like Auggie, Cline, and GitHub Copilot, and experimental bootstrapped and resumable sessions. Enhancements have also been made to clipboard image handling, status display, image rendering, and table rendering. The update also introduces usage tracking, improved diffs, event subscriptions, and customizable context sources. The author encourages sponsorship to ensure the project's sustainability.
The author added model icons to the `chatgpt-shell` Emacs package's model picker, using Lobe Icons. The feature is available in v2.30.1 and can be disabled by setting `chatgpt-shell-show-model-icons` to `nil`. The article also includes a sponsorship request for the indie developer.
