Jev is live in Finch. TypeSafe’s decision model — not another chat model. Fast typed answers for routing, classification, and scoring. Add it from Minitools → Productivity. Works with the TypeSafe AI API and OpenRouter. Also shipping in Finch 1.7: • MCP toolbox tab: add, edit, authorize, and manage your own MCP servers in-app • Side chat in the right panel — same workspace, doesn’t interrupt the main session • AGENTS.md loads along the git repo chain for project rules • Pick your Shell on macOS, Linux, and Windows (Git Bash / CMD / PowerShell) • Mini-apps can read the model catalog, switch models, and hand off shared work across agents If you build agent workflows, start with Jev. Then update to 1.7.

Your agent shouldn’t need a plugin just to show a flowchart. Finch 1.6.2: • Mermaid charts render in-app — fullscreen zoom and pan, and the main package dropped from 1199 kB to 572 kB • Highlight any text in a reply to quote it, then jump back to the source • Session header now holds overview, mini-apps, and the menu in one bar • MCP gets Resources and Prompts, with config that survives switching install sources • Linux: Wayland, Finch logo title bar, and rpm builds • GPT-6 Astra is in the model list If you live in sessions all day, this is the 1.6.2 worth updating for.

My Agent Tierlist

Most agents think the same on every prompt. Finch 1.6.1 thinks harder when the work is actually hard. • Professional thinking mode: a deeper reasoning chain for messy, multi-step work, not “max thinking” on every prompt • GLM 5.3 and GLM 5.3 Flash, and it won’t auto-select a model you can’t actually use • Skills from ~/.agents/skills, the shared path people are already putting agent skills in • Diffs and file preview now use Shiki. About 10x faster on big files • Session.suggest: when a turn ends, it proposes the next move instead of going quiet • Mini-apps get a Finder-style file picker, HTML preview, and a usage dashboard you can actually read If you run agents all day, this is the 1.6.1 that matters.

Grok Bot gave Grok a cloud computer. Finch 1.6.0 puts it on yours. Native xAI login, a side panel that keeps browser and diffs alive across sessions, DeepSeek vision at 1M context.

Great list, but you are missing one 🐦
