[oXygen-user] [ANN] New release of Oxygen AI Positron Assistant brings chat, preview, new actions, and more

[Alin Belu]

Hello everyone,

We are excited to announce a new release for the *Oxygen AI Positron 
Assistant* add-on!

Version 0.9.2 comes with a variety of exciting new features, including 
chat functionality, the ability to preview changes, AI-based quick 
fixes, AI-based XPath extension functions, and new AI actions for 
grammar corrections, content rewriting, and checking how your content 
responds to specific questions.

The *AI Positron Chat* side-view provides a better user experience and 
more control when invoking AI actions, allowing you to see the response 
and preview its impact on the document using an action that triggers the 
visual XML-aware comparison. You can also further refine the responses 
by continuing the discussion with the *AI Positron* platform in the chat 
view.

In a chat message, you can use editor variables that expand to the 
selected content or the entire document. These allow you to define 
flexible prompts, and the support to save favorites enables you to store 
and easily reuse the prompts you find useful.

Along with the preview action for the AI responses, you can also use 
actions to insert the response into your document or copy the response 
to the system clipboard.

Version 0.9.2 of the add-on improves the existing actions and 
contributes new AI actions:
  * *Correct Grammar* - Corrects the grammar and spelling of the 
selected content.
  * *Use Active Voice* - Converts the selected content from passive 
voice to active voice.
  * *Generate Questions* - Displays possible questions that the selected 
content or the entire document responds to.
  * *Answer Questions* - Displays AI responses to your questions found 
in either the selected content or the entire document.

The add-on now also helps you with validation problems. If an error 
message provides a good description of the identified problem and 
eventually a hint on how to fix it, which is typically the case with 
Schematron errors, then you can take advantage of the *AI Positron Fix* 
quick-fix action that tries to find a solution to the validation 
problem. This action can be triggered from the contextual menu for the 
validation problems that are displayed in the application's Problems list.

The add-on now also contributes two *XPath extension functions* that can 
be used from XSLT stylesheets, XQuery scripts, and from Schematron 
schemas to process content or to perform validation checks on existing 
content. Custom XML refactoring operations (based on XSLT or XQuery) can 
also take advantage of these AI functions, so you can apply batch 
processing on multiple documents.

For additional information on the *Oxygen AI Positron Assistant* add-on, 
including the installation instructions, you can check out this article

We want to remind you that we plan to frequently release new features 
and improvements, so please let us know what you think of the current 
version and stay tuned for exciting new versions of this add-on!

Best regards,
Alin
