Lovable enables targeted plan edits by highlighting text sections
TL;DR
Lovable lets users highlight sections in Plan mode to request edits. The tool updates only the selected text and shows changes as a visual diff.
What changed
Developers and Vibe Builders can highlight specific sections of a plan in Plan mode to request targeted edits. Lovable updates only the selected text and displays the changes as a visual diff. Basic Users gain easier ways to refine their plans without starting over.
Why it matters
This feature lets Developers make precise adjustments during planning similar to workflows in Cursor. Basic Users and Vibe Builders save time on revisions in app building projects with multiple plan iterations.
What to watch for
Compare the visual diff approach against alternatives like direct chat edits in Claude. Developers should test by highlighting text in an existing plan and requesting a change to verify the update.
Who this matters for
- Vibe Builders: Highlight specific text blocks in Plan mode to tweak target app features without rewriting full prompts.
- Basic Users: Select single plan sections to request quick corrections and compare updates using the visual diff.
Amy’s take
Surgical plan editing solves a major friction point in prompt-driven development. Forcing users to regenerate entire specification plans for minor adjustments creates drift and wastes execution context. Visual diffs give non-technical creators immediate clarity on exact structural changes.
This update brings Lovable closer to developer-focused IDE workflows like Cursor. Granular scope controls keep plan revisions tight, reducing hallucinated side effects across your broader application spec.
