Changelog Entry

Description

  • Added a "Search the Web" option to the response regeneration menu. This allows users to quickly re-run a query with web search enabled without needing to toggle the global setting. The option is only visible if web search is configured and the user has the required permissions.

Added

  • New "Search the Web" button in the RegenerateMenu component.
  • Support for feature overrides in the regenerateResponse and sendMessage flow in Chat.svelte.

Changed

  • Updated RegenerateMenu to accept a showWebSearch visibility prop.
  • Modified ResponseMessage.svelte to check for web search permissions before showing the option.
