3.2.1

Copilot for Obsidian - Release v3.2.1

A patch release with search improvements and bug fixes.

• Improved vault search: Better tag matching with hierarchical support (e.g. searching #project also matches #project/alpha) and a cleaner, faster search pipeline.
• New in-chat indexing progress: Indexing progress now shows as a card inside Copilot Chat with a progress bar and pause/resume/stop controls, instead of a popup notice. No more phantom re-indexing on mode switch.

Bug Fixes

• #2176 Fix ENAMETOOLONG error when Composer creates files with long names @logancyang
• #2174 Fix insert/replace at cursor accidentally including agent reasoning blocks @logancyang
• #2173 Fix phantom re-indexing on mode switch @logancyang

3.2.0

Copilot for Obsidian - Release v3.2.0 💪

The first version of Self-Host Mode is finally here! You can simply toggle it on at the bottom of Plus settings, and your reliance on the Copilot Plus backend is gone (Believer required)!

The builtin model list has been updated, click "Refresh Built-in Models" above the model setting table to see them!

• 🚀 Autonomous Agent Evolution — The agent experience gets a major upgrade this release!
  • ✨ New reasoning block: The new reasoning block replaces the old tool call banners for a cleaner and smoother UI in agent mode!
  • 🔧 Native tool calling: We moved to native tool calling from the XML-based approach for a more reliable tool call experience. Nowadays more and more models support native tool calling, even local models!
• Brand new Quick Command and Editor "Quick Ask" Floating Panel! Select text in the editor and get an inline AI floating panel for quick questions — with persistent selection highlights so you never lose your place! (@Emt-lin)
• Twitter/X thread processing: Mention a tweet thread URL in chat and Copilot will fetch the entire thread! (@logancyang)
• Modular context compaction architecture — a cleaner, more extensible design for how Copilot manages long contexts. (@logancyang)
• LM Studio and Ollama reasoning/thinking token support — thinking models in LM Studio and Ollama now display reasoning output properly. (@logancyang)
• Major search improvements: better recall with note-diverse top-K scoring, and a new "Build Index" button replacing the warning triangle in Relevant Notes for a clearer UX. (@logancyang)

In the next iterations, self-host mode will let you configure your own web search and YouTube services, and integrate with our new standalone desktop app for more powerful features, stay tuned!

👨‍💻 Known Limitations: Agent mode performance varies by model, recommended models: Gemini Pro/Flash (copilot-plus-flash), Claude 4.5+ models, GPT 5+ and mini, grok 4 and fast. Many OpenRouter open source models work too but the performance can vary a lot.

3.1.5

Copilot for Obsidian - Release v3.1.5 🔥

Our first release in 2026 has some long-awaited upgrades!

• Copilot can read web tabs in Obsidian now!! 🚀 With the new builtin YouTube and web clipper slash commands (use "generate default" button under the Commands settings tab), you can get beautiful clips with mindmap with just one prompt! 🤯
• We now have a new custom system prompt system where every system prompt is stored as a markdown file. You can add and switch your custom system prompt in the Advanced settings tab or just above the chat input via the new gear icon!
• As requested, we now have a new side-by-side diff view for composer edits! You can toggle between the inline diff view and side-by-side when a diff is displayed.
• New auto compact when the context attached is too long and overflows your model's context window. You can set the token threshold, default is 128k tokens. If you want it to be less aggressive, set it to 1M tokens.
• OpenRouter embedding models are supported! You can simply add them using the OpenRouter provider in the embedding model table.

There are a lot more upgrades, including a significant improvement in index-free search, better sorting of chat history and projects, composer auto-accept toggle in the chat input menu (the 3 dots), a new LLM provider "GitHub Copilot", etc. Huge shoutout to @Emt-lin for the significant contributions!
