Fixes three classes of edit_files bugs and adds structured per-file
diff output for tool callers:
- New IncludeDiff flag on FileEditRequest; when set, the agent
returns FileEditResponse.Files[]{Path, Diff} with unified diffs
computed via go-udiff v0.4.1 Lines + ToUnified (not Unified,
which calls log.Fatalf on internal error).
- Fuzzy match comparators split each line into leading whitespace,
body, trailing whitespace, and ending. The splice substitutes at
each position: on agreement between search and replace the file's
bytes win; on disagreement the replacement's bytes are spliced
verbatim. Carve-outs for empty-body lines, multi-line EOF splices,
and level-aware indent translation for inserted lines.
- Indent-unit detection (GCD for spaces, tab-priority) lets a 4sp
LLM search insert correctly into tab or 2sp files. Falls back to
the previous cLead-inheritance path when units can't be detected
cleanly.
- Empty search is rejected with "search string must not be empty".
- Duplicate file paths in one request are rejected; symlink aliases
resolved via api.resolvePath before the dedup check.
- Frontend EditFilesRenderer consumes the structured files array by
explicit path (no label munging) with per-file synthetic fallback
for older agents or mismatched paths. On error, no diff is
rendered so the synthetic fallback doesn't misrepresent a
rejected edit as applied.
Breaking change: AgentConn.EditFiles changes from (ctx, req) error
to (ctx, req) (FileEditResponse, error) in codersdk/workspacesdk.
Source-breaking for external Go consumers; no compat shim per plan
owner.
Out of scope (tracked in CODAGT-214): level-aware indent for
middle-substituted splice lines. Locked in
TestEditFiles_FuzzyIndent_InsertionLevelAware's Lock_* cases plus
TestEditFiles_ReplaceAll_FuzzyIndentGap.
Coder enables organizations to set up development environments in their public or private cloud infrastructure. Cloud development environments are defined with Terraform, connected through a secure high-speed Wireguard® tunnel, and automatically shut down when not used to save on costs. Coder gives engineering teams the flexibility to use the cloud for workloads most beneficial to them.
- Define cloud development environments in Terraform
- EC2 VMs, Kubernetes Pods, Docker Containers, etc.
- Automatically shutdown idle resources to save on costs
- Onboard developers in seconds instead of days
Quickstart
The most convenient way to try Coder is to install it on your local machine and experiment with provisioning cloud development environments using Docker (works on Linux, macOS, and Windows).
# First, install Coder
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
# Start the Coder server (caches data in ~/.cache/coder)
coder server
# Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to create your initial user,
# create a Docker template and provision a workspace
Install
The easiest way to install Coder is to use our
install script for Linux
and macOS. For Windows, use the latest ..._installer.exe file from GitHub
Releases.
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
You can run the install script with --dry-run to see the commands that will be used to install without executing them. Run the install script with --help for additional flags.
See install for additional methods.
Once installed, you can start a production deployment with a single command:
# Automatically sets up an external access URL on *.try.coder.app
coder server
# Requires a PostgreSQL instance (version 13 or higher) and external access URL
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>
Use coder --help to get a list of flags and environment variables. Use our install guides for a complete walkthrough.
