ADE 1.2.122 adds side chats, puts subagent chats in their parent’s actions pane, makes fast mode an account permission, and brings back sharp first-launch wallpapers.

​
New

  • Side chats: type /side <question> in a chat. A read-only “Side chat” tab opens in the Tools pane. It knows the whole conversation, cannot edit anything, and sends a message to the main chat only when you ask (#1890).
  • Kimi 2.3 and Pi 1.4, with a real fork, MCP servers and side chats (#1890).
  • New installs open on a wallpaper that fits their screen, from eleven new full-size pictures (#1888).

​
Improved

  • Subagent chats live in their parent’s actions pane on desktop, web, ADE Code and iOS. The Work list shows one small mark on the parent instead (#1891).
  • Fast mode is one account-wide permission, off by default. Turn it on in Settings › Chat › Speed & spend; each chat still starts Standard (#1884).
  • An App Control relaunch reuses its shell, so an edit, rebuild and relaunch loop leaves one shell (#1892).
  • A shorter, plainer README with current screenshots and GIFs (#1886).

​
Fixed

  • A Claude chat’s MCP secrets are no longer visible on its command line (#1890).
  • Moving a large project no longer times out on the size check (#1893).
  • Dead App Control shells no longer hide chats on other machines (#1892).
  • Chats from a second copy of a repository on another machine no longer show under that machine’s name (#1891).
  • ade apple simulator tools: no silent new device after a person releases the lane’s device, screenshot --out writes to your path, snapshot gives refs for every element, and gestures cannot be cut into (#1889).

​
iOS

  • Settled chats collapse correctly, the tab bar hides under an open chat, and normal iPhones keep their own Work list and chat chrome (#1891, #1889). Subagent chats move into the parent’s actions pane. All are in a new TestFlight build.
