datasette-agent 0.5a0

Datasette Agent 0.5a0 is a release of the agent chat plugin for Datasette, dated 3 November 2026. Its main new feature is the panel, which keeps the agent chat open beside Datasette pages such as a table or query page. Combined with datasette-apps, a user can prompt a database-backed app into existence and edit it from the adjacent chat. A hosted demo at agent.datasette.io needs GitHub sign-in.

TL;DR Announces Datasette Agent 0.5a0, which adds a side panel chat that stays beside Datasette pages and works with datasette-apps to build and edit apps.
