Codegen Weekly Diff
The past week’s releases focus on refinement — polishing UI consistency, strengthening integrations, and streamlining daily workflows. From unified scrollbars to expanded Jira linking, Codegen is faster, cleaner, and more intuitive to build with.
Consistent scrollbars across components
We introduced a unified scrollbar system (cg-scrollbar) now used across 20+ components — from Kanban boards to tables and dialogs. The result: a smoother, cohesive feel across the entire app.
Clearer calendar design
The Calendar component now highlights today’s date with improved CSS selectors for quicker visual scanning. Subtle, but meaningful for time-sensitive work.
Kanban improvements
Kanban boards are getting smarter and more manageable:
- Added tri-state checkboxes for “All columns,” so you can easily toggle column visibility.
- Added a placeholder state when no columns are shown.
- Refined visibility controls for better project navigation.
These small touches make large boards more intuitive — especially when managing multiple workflows.
Streamlined dates & cleaner code
The DateRangePicker now uses the compact MMM d, yy format (e.g., Oct 6, 25), improving readability across analytics dashboards.
Behind the scenes, unused props (popoverId, onOpenChatModal) and imports were removed across several components — another step toward a leaner, faster codebase.
Bigger uploads, better UX
We’ve removed the 100MB GitHub upload limit, letting developers handle larger assets and repositories directly through Codegen — no workarounds needed.
We also resolved card interaction bugs in Kanban, improved accessibility with focus outlines, and fixed pointer behavior in dialogs. These tweaks make the UI more predictable and a11y-friendly.
Jira issue linking
Developers can now create and manage relationships between Jira issues — like “blocks” or “relates to” — directly within Codegen. This strengthens end-to-end workflow visibility.
Voice and visual enhancements
Agents can now process Slack audio messages — MP3, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG — through the chat_with_video tool, enabling voice-based interactions with AI agents.
We also upgraded PR status chips in the command palette, making “Open,” “Merged,” “Closed,” and “Draft” states instantly recognizable.
Wrapping up
These releases may look small on paper but add up to a noticeably smoother, more consistent developer experience.
From unified visuals to integration depth, Codegen continues evolving as a platform that values both design polish and engineering precision.
