Kilo Code 7.4.8: Agent Manager session inspection and cross-session prompting

The native Agent Manager tool can now inspect managed sessions and send a prompt to an idle one, gated behind a separate explicit approval. Also tightens permissions on file mentions and fixes several session/worktree lifecycle bugs.

  • Agent Manager: inspect managed sessions and send a targeted prompt to an idle existing session; requires separate explicit approval before prompting another session
  • Sandboxed agents inherit sandbox state when starting new Agent Manager sessions
  • Read and ignore permissions now enforced when file mentions add content to a prompt
  • Task tool subagents kept out of Agent Manager tabs; active sessions and subagents stop when a session tab or the Agent Manager tab closes
  • Reports active CLI and VS Code app and session presence
  • Task timeline: hover/focus a bar to highlight the matching tool call in the transcript
  • Prompt enhancer added to the New Worktree dialog
  • Moving a session into a worktree preserves the current local commit
  • "Browse files..." moved to the end of the @-mention dropdown so the closest match is the default
  • Fixed the token usage summary's cache-read indicator; cached input grouped with other input tokens
  • Chat input history keeps the initial session prompt; sidebar keyboard focus retained after closing an inactive tab
  • Improved descriptions for Temperature, Top P, Max Steps; better question-option visibility in light themes
