AdaL CLI v0.8.0: New Models, Redesigned UI, and Referral Program

New to AdaL? Learn what AdaL CLI is → · Read the docs →

I cannot be more excited about this milestone. Our team is too busy pushing AdaL to the next one, so there is no fancy launch video yet.

Introducing the new AdaL CLI, with doubled agentic tool use capability across all models. Enjoy the best of each model and balance the cost. The $20 plan may be enough!

New Models

Be a good assistant and give your coding agent the models they need: Gemini 3.1 Pro, Opus 4.6, Sonnet 4.6, Codex 5.2, and Minimax M2.5 Highspeed.

Google — Gemini 3.1 Pro

Gemini 3.1 Pro brings massive context windows and top-tier reasoning capabilities to your terminal.

Anthropic — Claude Sonnet 4.6 & Opus 4.6

Claude Sonnet 4.6 brings improved agentic coding performance with better planning and tool-calling capabilities. Paired with Opus 4.6, you have the ultimate Anthropic powerhouse available immediately via /model.

OpenAI — GPT-5.2 Codex + 9 More

We've added GPT-5.2 Codex along with 9 additional OpenAI models, giving you the latest reasoning and code generation capabilities from OpenAI's lineup.

MiniMax — M2.5 Highspeed

MiniMax M2.5 Highspeed is optimized for faster response times at competitive quality. Minimax is 10x cheaper than Sonnet, with the same level of capability.

UI & Experience

Who said terminal agents have worse UI? No, it is better. Fast, accessible, and packed with shortcuts:

Click to expand / collapse for lengthy tool outputs, keeping your terminal clean
Click anywhere in the input to edit your prompt seamlessly
Inline diff highlighting — The diff view now highlights individual changed characters within lines, making code reviews faster

Redesigned `/model` Dialog

The model picker has been completely redesigned with provider-specific sections — models are now grouped by Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and MiniMax, making it faster to find what you need.

Floating Header

A new overlay-style floating header sits in the top-right corner, showing your current model and session info without taking up vertical space.

Theme & Layout

New theme selection with configurable terminal background colors
Refreshed user query UI design
Improved bash confirmation dialog layout with better context

AdaL Web Updates

AdaL Web (adal --web) continues to mature:

Real-time git branch updates — The file explorer auto-refreshes when you switch branches
Sidebar diff viewer — Review file changes directly in the sidebar without leaving the chat
