Axiowisp 0.3.5 Is Out — Split Editor and AI Slash Commands

It's a focused release. Two features, both significant. If 0.3.4 was about expanding what the editor can do, 0.3.5 is about how you interact with it — how you navigate multiple files at once, and how you talk to the AI.

Split Editor

You can now open two files side by side in the same window.

Click the split icon at the left of the tab bar to enable it. The editor divides into two independent panes. The left pane tracks your normal active tab as always. The right pane has its own tab strip — click any open file to load it there.

Prefer the faster approach? Right-click any tab → Open in Split. It opens directly in the right pane and enables the split in one action.

The divider between the two panes is draggable — pull it left or right to give more space to whichever side you need. Close the split with the X on the right pane header when you're done.

The use cases are obvious once you have it: comparing two files, writing a function while reading its tests, editing a component while referencing its CSS, copying between files without losing your place. It's one of those features that changes how you actually work, not just what you can technically do.


AI Slash Commands

The AI chat panel now has a command system.

Type / in the chat input and a menu appears above it with six commands:

  • /explain — walk through what the current file does, step by step
  • /fix — find and fix bugs, with an explanation of what was wrong
  • /test — write unit tests for the current file
  • /docs — add JSDoc or docstring documentation to the code
  • /refactor — rewrite for clarity, performance, and maintainability
  • /review — audit for security vulnerabilities and code quality issues, categorized by severity

Navigate with arrow keys, press Enter to select, or just click. Selecting fills the input with the full prompt — you can edit it before sending if you want to narrow the scope.

All six commands automatically use your currently open file as context. No pasting code, no specifying a file. Open it, type the command, send.

The most useful one in practice is /review — it gives you a structured breakdown with severity levels (Critical, High, Medium, Low) without you having to describe what to look for. /fix is a close second for quick bug hunts on files you haven't touched in a while.


Bug Fixes

HTML Preview was showing a blank white pane. Blob URLs created via URL.createObjectURL don't load reliably inside Electron iframes — switched to srcdoc, which injects HTML content directly. Fixed.

HTML editor pane wasn't rendering at all when preview was enabled. A missing height: 100% on the editor container meant Monaco had no height to fill. One line of CSS.
