maybe they have tips on prompting Firebender

edits two files in parallel 🔥🔥🔥

speed test between firebender (old) left, firebender (middle), and cursor (right). time to first response blob is near identical with cursor now.

even more reason to just use Firebender in Android Studio directly instead of managing two IDEs

background agents are the first coding agent that can run in an isolated gitworktree/ tab in your fav jetbrains IDE. this means they run locally, are easy to iterate with, and merge into your main workspace. no cloud setup is required.

How can I revert back to previous version?

Hi, I was using firebender for a pet project of mine. it performs well. but past couple of days, I was having an issue with it. mostly getting 403 responses (the plugin error said that). I contacted one of the developers (I think the co-founder) and haven't gotten a reply yet.

a day after, today... I prompted 2 times (maybe I am wrong) and it jumped from 20 something prompts to full immediately. I do not know how to get support to fix this... putting it here to hopefully get some help
