Windsurf just announced Wave 2.

It takes AI coding to a whole new level with so many incredible features.

8 wild examples:

1. Web Search

The AI assistant (Cascade) can now search the web so you can pull in the latest API docs or the changelog of your favorite open source project.

You can also use @ URL to specify any website.

2. Automated Memories

Cascade automatically figures out patterns in how you want work to be done, and saves them to a bank of Memories that you can later inspect and edit.

3. Problems Tab

You can get Cascade to have the context of (and solve) your issues without a single copy-paste.

4. Docs search functionality. 

It can now search any docs online. Additionally some popular docs are already pre-indexed there that you can access with “@ docs”

5. Code Execution Improvements

When Cascade runs terminal commands as part of its execution, it is now able to do so utilizing the underlying IDE terminal shell.

6. Dev Container

Additionally, they have greatly improved the dev container extension.

7. Enterprise Ready

 Available on Enterprise SaaS + Hybrid plans.

8. Explain Problem UI

Cascade can now explain and fix issues directly in the editor.

Happy to see the bookmarks 👀

It's humbling when AI tools I already recommend like Windsurf offer to sponsor my content.
