The response you choose stays, everything after it is permanently removed, and your current draft and attachments remain ready so you can continue from there. - Added tools that AI models can use on their own, starting with Web Search and Read Web Page. When you ask something a model cannot answer from what it knows, it now searches the web, reads the pages it found, and answers with the sources it used. You decide which tools a model may use, right below the message field, and you can watch it work: AI Studio shows which tool is running and, afterward, every call it made with its result. Whether tools are offered at all depends on the model because it has to support them. Read Web Page works right away; for Web Search you pick a search service in the app settings — Tavily or Staan with a free API key, or a SearXNG instance you run yourself. Set up more than one, and they can take turns when one of them finds nothing, or be asked all at once with their results combined. Many thanks to Peer Schütt (`peerschuett`) and Nils Kruthoff (`nilskruthoff`) for building this feature. - Added answers that appear word by word even while the AI uses its tools. You read along as the model writes, including the short note it puts down before it looks something up, and the answer that follows a tool call arrives the same way instead of all at once at the end. - Added safeguards around everything these tools bring back. Anything fetched from the web is treated as untrusted: AI Studio removes instructions hidden in a page before a model reads it and tells you when it did, exactly as it already does for the documents and web pages you load yourself. A model can never point a tool at your own network. Each tool states how much you have to trust a provider before it may be used with it, so your questions do not travel further than you allow. You can adjust that requirement per tool in the app settings.

The response you choose stays, everything after it is permanently removed, and your current draft and attachments remain ready so you can continue from there. +- Added a way to copy an entire chat. The copy opens right away so you can continue in it, while the original conversation stays exactly as it was. +- Added a way to roll a chat back to an earlier AI response. The response you pick stays, and every message after it is removed permanently, together with the attachments of those messages. - Added tools that AI models can use on their own, starting with Web Search and Read Web Page. When you ask something a model cannot answer from what it knows, it now searches the web, reads the pages it found, and answers with the sources it used. You decide which tools a model may use, right below the message field, and you can watch it work: AI Studio shows which tool is running and, afterward, every call it made with its result. Whether tools are offered at all depends on the model because it has to support them. Read Web Page works right away; for Web Search you pick a search service in the app settings — Tavily or Staan with a free API key, or a SearXNG instance you run yourself. Set up more than one, and they can take turns when one of them finds nothing, or be asked all at once with their results combined. Many thanks to Peer Schütt (`peerschuett`) and Nils Kruthoff (`nilskruthoff`) for building this feature. - Added answers that appear word by word even while the AI uses its tools. You read along as the model writes, including the short note it puts down before it looks something up, and the answer that follows a tool call arrives the same way instead of all at once at the end. - Added safeguards around everything these tools bring back. Anything fetched from the web is treated as untrusted: AI Studio removes instructions hidden in a page before a model reads it and tells you when it did, exactly as it already does for the documents and web pages you load yourself. A model can never point a tool at your own network. Each tool states how much you have to trust a provider before it may be used with it, so your questions do not travel further than you allow. You can adjust that requirement per tool in the app settings.

The copy opens right away so you can continue in it, while the original conversation stays exactly as it was. Many thanks to Peer Hogeterp (`peerschuett`) and Jens Erler (`j-erler`) for this feature. - Added a way to roll a chat back to an earlier AI response. The response you pick stays, and every message after it is removed permanently, together with the attachments of those messages. -- Added tools that AI models can use on their own, starting with Web Search and Read Web Page. When you ask something a model cannot answer from what it knows, it now searches the web, reads the pages it found, and answers with the sources it used. You decide which tools a model may use, right below the message field, and you can watch it work: AI Studio shows which tool is running and, afterward, every call it made with its result. Whether tools are offered at all depends on the model because it has to support them. Read Web Page works right away; for Web Search you pick a search service in the app settings — Tavily or Staan with a free API key, or a SearXNG instance you run yourself. Set up more than one, and they can take turns when one of them finds nothing, or be asked all at once with their results combined.

You read along as the model writes, including the short note it puts down before it looks something up, and the answer that follows a tool call arrives the same way instead of all at once at the end. - Added safeguards around everything these tools bring back. Anything fetched from the web is treated as untrusted: AI Studio removes instructions hidden in a page before a model reads it and tells you when it did, exactly as it already does for the documents and web pages you load yourself. A model can never point a tool at your own network. Each tool states how much you have to trust a provider before it may be used with it, so your questions do not travel further than you allow. You can adjust that requirement per tool in the app settings. - Added tools to the assistants. Each assistant has its own tool settings: which tools it starts with and whether you get to change them while you work. The chat, the coding assistant, and the Slide Builder always show the selection; for every other assistant you switch it on where you want it.

Only make the minimal manual formatting changes required for the specific edit. -- **I18N resources are generated** - Do not manually edit `app/MindWork AI Studio/Assistants/I18N/allTexts.lua`, `app/MindWork AI Studio/Plugins/languages/en-us-97dfb1ba-50c4-4440-8dfa-6575daf543c8/plugin.lua`, or `app/MindWork AI Studio/Plugins/languages/de-de-43065dbc-78d0-45b7-92be-f14c2926e2dc/plugin.lua`. These files are updated automatically by the I18N process. +- **I18N resources are generated** - The developer produces the translations by running the localization assistant in the app; agents only review and correct the German values afterward. See "Localization" above. - **Spaces in paths** - Always quote paths with spaces in bash commands - **Agent-run builds** - Never start `.NET` or Rust builds in the agent's own shell; it is sandboxed. Use the `rider` and `rustrover` MCP servers instead, which build in the IDE outside that sandbox. See "Running builds from an agent" above. - **Debug environment** - Reads `startup.env` file with IPC credentials
