[oXygen-user] [ANN] Oxygen AI Positron Assistant 4.1 is now available!

[Alin Belu]

Hello,

We are proud to announce the release of *Oxygen AI Positron Assistant 
4.1*, a powerful tool that helps you increase your productivity by 
providing support for using AI-generated content within Oxygen tools - 
Oxygen XML Editor/Author/Developer, Oxygen JSON Editor, Oxygen XML Web 
Author, and Oxygen Content Fusion. *Version 4.1* enhances the existing 
AI features and introduces a wide range of new functionalities, 
including improved validation tools, dynamic AI workflows, and enhanced 
collaboration capabilities, making the assistant even more capable and 
user-friendly.

With this newest version, you can preview the changes that the *Create 
Topics* and *Split Topic* actions will make before saving them to disk, 
ensuring greater confidence and control over modifications.

The *Intelligent Agents* category now includes a new *Fix Validation 
Problems* action. This action validates the current document and 
suggests fixes for all identified issues, streamlining both the 
validation process and the resolution of validation problems, ensuring 
high-quality content. The new *Formula/Equation* action leverages AI to 
generate MathML formulas based on your descriptions. This feature 
simplifies the creation of complex mathematical representations and 
enhances technical documentation workflows. Furthermore, the *Annotate 
Code* action is now available and adds comments to XSLT, Schematron, or 
XSD code, explaining its purpose and functionality. This is particularly 
useful for developers aiming to improve code readability and 
maintainability.

Version 4.1 also introduces the *Export Chat* action, allowing you to 
export chat sessions as JSON documents. These can be shared with others 
or re-imported using the *Import Chat* action, making it easier to 
troubleshoot custom AI actions issues, or to resume conversations at a 
later time.

When an AI action processes content but does not result in any changes, 
you are now informed, eliminating the need for unnecessary previews or 
visual inspection. This improvement saves time and ensures a smoother 
workflow.

A new XPath function has been introduced, enabling you to seamlessly 
invoke an AI Positron action from any XPath context (such as XSLT, 
XQuery, Schematron, etc.) by providing the action ID, contextual text, 
and the content to be processed.

The plugin now includes several new *AI callback functions*, which are 
specialized mechanisms enabling the AI to dynamically invoke external 
processing and use the results in generating its response. These new 
functions can be used to invoke another AI action, to find all the 
available AI actions, and to validate a document, thus empowering you to 
create complex, dynamic workflows as part of a custom AI action.

Most of the features were also implemented for Oxygen XML Web Author and 
Oxygen Content Fusion, including the *Fix Validation Problems* action, 
the *Formula/Equation* action, the notification when content is not 
changed, and the AI callback function to validate a document.

In addition to the support to attach a remote file, a new *Attach from 
computer* option allows users to incorporate files from their local 
machine into prompts. Attachments are useful in various use cases. For 
example, the user can attach a screenshot and ask the AI to update a 
documentation topic based on that image.

As always, thank you for your support and don't forget that feedback is 
welcome!

Best regards,
Alin
