I'm excited to share another feature-packed release! This week's updates focus on streamlined DinoAI interactions, advanced Git functionality, and deeper Code IDE integrations.

🦖 Enhanced DinoAI Context

Advanced Context Control with ⌘L Shortcut

We've introduced a powerful new shortcut (⌘L)/(Ctrl+L) that allows you to send selected code directly to DinoAI Chat.

This feature is particularly valuable for multi-file editing scenarios and advanced development tasks where you need precise, targeted context. Instead of manually describing what you're working on, simply select the relevant code and send it instantly to DinoAI for more accurate assistance. (If disabled, check our docs here on how to activate in-line context)

🔍 GitLens lands in the Code IDE

We've integrated GitLens, bringing additional Git capabilities directly into your Paradime workspace:

• Inline Git Blame: See author information and commit details directly in your code editor

• GitLens Inspect: Get X-ray vision into your codebase with rich commit and stash details

• Line History Navigation: Jump through the complete revision history of selected lines

• File History Exploration: Trace the evolution of files, folders, or specific line ranges

• Advanced Search & Compare: Find specific commits, authors, or code changes, and compare branches, tags, or commits with powerful visualization tools

This integration transforms how you interact with Git, providing contextual information and insights focused on your active work areas.

🤖 dbt™️ Defer to Production in Data Preview

Extended dbt™️ defer functionality to work seamlessly within data preview panel.

This allows you to test queries and dbt™️ transformations against production state without manually switching contexts, streamlining your development-to-production workflow and ensuring consistency across environment
