Rider 2026.2.3 Is Released!
Summary
Rider 2026.2.3 is released, adding AI performance analysis to the Monitoring tool window and fixing an issue with the AI Agent Setup widget on Windows. The Monitoring tool window collects runtime data every time an application runs, allowing the AI agent to find bottlenecks and link them to code using the Analyze with AI action, which sends a prompt to the agent to begin the investigation. The agent uses the dottrace-analyze skill to show where time was spent, follow hot paths in code, and provide useful performance insights in the chat. This feature requires Windows, dotUltimate or the All Products Pack, and the AI Assistant plugin. The widget fix addresses issue RIDER-143160, where clicking its taskbar icon with display scaling below 175% failed to open the widget, and updates are available from the IDE, Toolbox App, or website.
