Replit improved Ghostwriter's inline actions (Explain Code, Generate Code, Edit Code) by replacing popovers with persistent inline widgets, adding streaming for faster first-response times (sub-one second), syncing chat messages with the Ghostwriter pane, and introducing diff views for reviewing AI suggestions. Edit Code was renamed from Transform Code.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://replit.com/blog/ghostwriter-inline:

> AI suggestions are now streamed directly inside your editor, so we show the language model's response incrementally in the editor as it's generated. This means that the time to the first response is reduced from multiple seconds to sub-one second .
