Careti v0.4.8 Update: Message Queue, Gemini 3.1 Pro, and VSIX Download

Type next instructions while AI is streaming, cancel with a single ESC press. Also includes Gemini 3.1 Pro Support, Direct VSIX Download, CLI sub-agent execution, and v0.4.7 infinite loading fix.

Hi, I'm Luke, building Careti.

Careti v0.4.8 has been released. This version focuses on reducing the time you spend waiting for AI and brings new capabilities.

Careti v0.4.8

1. Message Queue System

Type your next instructions while AI is still responding.

Your input appears as a preview above the input field and is automatically sent when the AI finishes. You can edit or delete queued messages directly from the preview. Inspired by Claude Code's workflow.

Zero wait time when chaining multiple tasks.

2. ESC Instant Cancel

When AI's response isn't going the right direction, press ESC once to immediately stop streaming.

If you have queued input, it's automatically restored to the editor for editing before resending. Keyboard-only workflow — no mouse needed.

3. Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview Model Support

We've added immediate support for Google's recently announced Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview (gemini-3.1-pro-preview) model within the Careti provider. You can now leverage this faster and more powerful Gemini model to boost your development productivity.

4. Direct VSIX Download

You can now directly download the extension file (.vsix) from the download menu on the Careti website, without going through the VS Code Marketplace or Open VSX.

This makes it easy to install Careti manually in enterprise environments where marketplace access might be restricted due to security or network policies.

5. CLI Sub-Agent

Run a sub-agent in one line from the Careti CLI.

careti "write test code for this module"

This single command spawns an isolated agent process. Supports headless/yolo mode for automation pipelines. Three modes available: Agent, Chatbot, and Interactive.

6. v0.4.7 Infinite Loading Fix

Fixed the issue where the extension wouldn't start when the data.cline.bot server was unreachable in v0.4.7.

Feature flag polling changed to non-blocking with 14 requests parallelized under a 5-second timeout. Provider name migration from caret → careti is also handled automatically for v0.4.6 upgrades.

7. Other Changes

  • CLI Telemetry: PostHog-based usage analytics
  • CLI E2E Tests: Agent/Chatbot/Interactive mode coverage
  • Sub-agent pattern: Both careti "prompt" and cline "prompt" recognized

Closing

The message queue and ESC cancel create an uninterrupted workflow with AI, while Gemini 3.1 Pro empowers your capabilities. The CLI sub-agent is ready for your automation pipelines.

Feedback is always welcome.
