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
