## Announcements: v0.28.0 - 2026-02-03

you generate prompt suggestions
([#17264](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/pull/17264) by
@NTaylorMullen).
- **IDE Support:** Gemini CLI now supports the Positron IDE
([#15047](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/pull/15047) by
@kapsner).
- **Customization:** You can now use custom themes in extensions, and we've

([#17327](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/pull/17327) by
@spencer426, [#17976](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/pull/17976)

## Highlights
- **Event-Driven Architecture:** The CLI now uses an event-driven scheduler for
tool execution, improving performance and responsiveness. This includes
migrating non-interactive flows and sub-agents to the new scheduler.
- **Enhanced User Experience:** This release introduces several UI/UX
improvements, including queued tool confirmations and the ability to expand
and collapse large pasted text blocks. The `Settings` dialog has been improved
to reduce jitter and preserve focus.
- **Agent and Skill Improvements:** Agent Skills have been promoted to a stable
feature. Sub-agents now use a JSON schema for input and are tracked by an
`AgentRegistry`.
- **New `/rewind` Command:** A new `/rewind` command has been implemented to
allow users to go back in their session history.
- **Improved Shell and File Handling:** The shell tool's output format has been
optimized, and the CLI now gracefully handles disk-full errors during chat
recording. A bug in detecting already added paths has been fixed.
- **Linux Clipboard Support:** Image pasting capabilities for Wayland and X11 on
Linux have been added.
- **Commands & UX Enhancements:** Introduced `/prompt-suggest` command,
alongside updated undo/redo keybindings and automatic theme switching.
- **Expanded IDE Support:** Now offering compatibility with Positron IDE,
expanding integration options for developers.
- **Enhanced Security & Authentication:** Implemented interactive and
non-interactive OAuth consent, improving both security and diagnostic
capabilities for bug reports.
- **Advanced Planning & Agent Tools:** Integrated a generic Checklist component
for structured task management and evolved subagent capabilities with dynamic
policy registration.
- **Improved Core Stability & Reliability:** Resolved critical environment
loading, authentication, and session management issues, ensuring a more robust
experience.
- **Background Shell Commands:** Enabled the execution of shell commands in the
background for increased workflow efficiency.
