Add your first model to start
Ghast doesn't bundle a default model. Pick a provider below — you can add more later, and switch per message.

{c.recommended && Recommended}
{c.logo}
{c.name}
{c.desc}
Add
))}
I'll do this later

Better tool-use, faster boot, fewer crashes. Multi-cursor in editor; agent budget caps.

0.2.1 May 4, 2026
Faster, calmer, harder to break
{/* Body */}
New
Multi-cursor in editor. Hold ⌥ and click to drop additional cursors — like in Cursor.
New
Agent budget caps. Set a max token spend per agent run; soft warning at 80%, hard stop at 100%.
Faster
Boot 2.4× faster. Skills now load lazily; chat opens before all providers connect.
Fixed
Markdown tables no longer overflow on narrow chat panes (#4189).
Fixed
Tool calls hanging on flaky network — now retried with backoff (#4202).

Auto-update will fetch a new build every hour you're online.
