Releases & Changelog

2026-10-01

Allow local will-file handlers to await workspace.applyEdit() through waitUntil without reacquiring the file-operation lock. Reject expired participant edits while completing edits already in progress.

Notify language servers that support workspace/didRenameFiles of external renames detected by file system watchers.

Make non-overwrite workspace.createFile() exclusive after will-create handlers, and delete symbolic links themselves, including dangling links.
Replace earlier minimatch native ignores with raw restricted glob strings for bundled native watcher subtree excludes: * stays within a component and ** matches components; other glob punctuation is literal. Regular watcher event patterns retain minimatch.
Exclude fixed Git storage directories from native traversal and filter emitted events to Git status files and refs.

Add workspace.createDirectory() and workspace.copyFile() with create-file participation and completion events, rejecting existing targets.
Add restricted native Git metadata subscriptions with workspace.createGitFileSystemWatcher() without changing ignored folders.
Add opt-in TreeViewOptions.preserveSelection and declare the existing TreeView cursor and disposal events in the public API.
Keep expanded sibling branches when refreshing a TreeView subtree.
Add TreeViewOptions.selectOnInvoke, command-less directory expansion, and right-click actions for TreeView items.
Declare the existing TreeView.registerLocalKeymap() API for view-owned local keymaps.
Make TreeView.registerLocalKeymap() return a Disposable for cancelling pending or active view-owned local keymaps.
Release all TreeView local mappings and safely dispose mappings after their buffers have been wiped.
Declare the existing FileSystemWatcher.onDidListen event for subscription readiness on newly watched roots.
Add an options overload for workspace.createFileSystemWatcher(). Set includeDirectories: true to receive directory events from the native watcher through the existing event handlers. Existing calls and Watchman remain file-only.
Use minimatch for native watcher ignore patterns and remove picomatch. Unicode POSIX character classes are not supported by the native backend.

Use bundled native-watcher binaries on macOS, Linux, and Windows. Native watcher events exclude symlinks and special entries. A symlink workspace root is resolved to its real path before subscribing.
A configured nonempty fileSystemWatch.watchmanPath now tries Watchman once before the native watcher. Without it, coc.nvim tries the native watcher first and looks up Watchman only after native watcher initialization fails.
On Linux with glibc below 2.28, skip the native watcher and quietly use the existing Watchman fallback when available.
Forward fileSystemWatch.ignoredFolders to the bundled native watcher and ignore .git and node_modules directory trees by default.

Include [extension: <id>] in uncaught exception and unhandled rejection logs when the owning extension's async context is available, including socket errors whose stacks contain only Node.js internals.
Fix inline completion's line acceptance inserting the entire suggestion. Add line+indent to coc#inline#accept() to accept the first line plus the following newline and indentation (#5756).

Fix multi-cursor uppercase and lowercase conversion overwriting different selected words with the same text (#5755).

Support day-based npm min-release-age cooldowns and min-release-age-exclude patterns when installing or updating extensions.

Improve Next Edit previews with cursor-stable candidate filtering, character-level insertion/deletion highlights, and cross-file float hints.

Support neovim OSC 8 hyperlinks. Hold Command on macOS or Ctrl on Linux/Windows to open the link. In mouse-capturing TUI applications, also hold Shift.
