Release Notes#

Current Release#

USD Code 1.0.0 GA (Feature Branch)#

Release date: December 2024

This is Feature Branch (GA) release of USD Code API, including a downloadable Helm chart for self-deployment.

Added#

  • Added self-deployment option to integrate API into IDE and Omniverse Kit.

  • Added ability to generate USD Code Helper Function (High-level Python USD Code) to perform stage modification tasks.

Improved#

  • Improved response quality:

    • Better contextual awareness and more relevant follow-up responses due to increased context window size.

  • Improved developer experience in Kit 106.5 by providing clearer error messaging when API errors occur

  • Improved expert routing robustness to ensure the right expert being routed to address user prompt tasks.

Known Limitations#

  • IDE Integration: Copilot capabilities in VS Code are limited by the Continue.dev extension’s capabilities. Autocompletion is currently not supported by USD Code.

  • Context window length: USD Code is based on a large language model that has a finite context window, so time-outs can occur if chats grow too long over the context window. As soon as previous chat history is no longer relevant to provide context, starting a new chat is recommended.
