Changelog
The product changelog for releases.sh, published to its own registry. Drafted daily from merged
PRs and reviewed via PR. See docs/changelog-style.md for the voice and curation rules.
July 10, 2026
Added
- Release importance scoring (1–5) — all newly ingested releases receive an AI-scored significance rating; a flame glyph marks high-impact (4) and landmark (5) releases on feed cards and detail pages;
GET /v1/releases/latest gains a ?minImportance= filter; MCP get_latest_releases and whats_changed expose a matching parameter.
/updates redesigned with a timeline rail and composition glyphs — month rows and area chips (CLI / Web) filter the feed client-side; per-release meta lines render composition counts as filled, half, and dash glyphs; Follow, Digest, and Atom links appear in the page header.- Category and collection scoping for search —
GET /v1/search now accepts ?category=<slug> and ?collection=<slug> to narrow results to a taxonomy category or a curated collection's member orgs.
- Wider catalog and collection layouts with an export rail —
/catalog and /collections expand to a wider shell; the collections index uses a two-column grid; collection detail pages gain a sticky rail with Export (.json / .md / .atom) and a Report a problem button.
Changed
- Digest emails and collection daily summaries now bias toward higher-importance releases — within each org section in digests and when selecting releases for collection date tiles, items with a higher importance score surface first.
Fixed
- Digest emails now capture releases ingested after the check window opened — editorial posts published hours before being fetched were previously dropped permanently; the email subject is also now dated for the window it covers rather than the delivery day.
- Inline code spans no longer stripped in compact org overview cards — tool names and verdict values that rendered as stray punctuation now appear correctly.
July 9, 2026
Added
- Homepage features an interactive CLI preview — job-led tabs demo live commands and responses, with a live vitals strip showing indexed source and release counts.
- Compact release cards now show a media thumbnail when the release has associated imagery.
- Org rows in the catalog and search results now display provenance — origin domain, alias badge, and a stub icon for listings awaiting verification.
- Digest emails redesigned for scannability — releases grouped by org with compact multi-release blocks and clearer visual hierarchy.
- In-place release re-fetch:
POST /v1/workflows/refetch-release re-fetches a single release's live page and updates its title, content, and date in place without changing its ID.
GET /v1/lookups/by-domain now auto-materializes a listing stub on miss when the domain has a valid releases.json manifest, returning a 200 instead of 404.
Changed
- Release pages now use a shared org-level OG card across all releases from that org, instead of rendering a per-release image.
/v1/search release hits no longer include full markdown content by default; pass ?include_content=true to opt in.
Fixed
- Org and product catalog pages now fall back to REST when GraphQL is unavailable during deploy windows, rather than showing an error state.
- Root-relative per-post permalinks (e.g.
/blog/post) now resolve correctly during extraction.
GET /v1/orgs/:slug now resolves by the org's primary domain, fixing lookups that previously returned 404.
July 8, 2026
Added
GET /v1/orgs/:slug/manifest — export any tracked org as a releases.json v2 domain manifest; reconstructs declared products, source locators, and canonical flags from live registry data; intended as an editable baseline to host at /.well-known/releases.json.creating-releases-json Claude Code skill — an agent-guided flow for writing a releases.json v2 manifest from your domain or repo; install via npx skills add from the monorepo; the /submit page now shows a click-to-copy install command alongside the listing check.- "Report an issue" button on org, product, source, and release pages — opens a contextual popover to send a short note to operators without leaving the page.
Changed
- The
/submit listing check now previews richer details for valid manifests — org identity (name, slug), products with per-product source counts, and a table of detected release locations with kind chips and tier badges.
Fixed
- MCP
get_organization now measures overview age from the last-edit timestamp instead of the original generation date — recently amended overviews no longer appear falsely stale.
July 7, 2026
Added
- Domain ownership claims — a new "Own this domain?" panel on listing pages lets signed-in users prove control via a
.well-known/releases-verify.txt file or a DNS TXT record; once verified, a single click enables live release tracking and materializes sources without waiting for curator review.
- Slack notifications are now a first-class setup path — a new guide at
/docs/integrations/slack walks through connecting a Slack incoming webhook, and the notifications page gains a dedicated section to paste, test, and remove a hook without going into the advanced webhooks form.
- Unlisted domains that are frequently searched now auto-create stub listings — domain lookup misses are captured as demand signals and a daily sweep probes high-demand unlisted domains for a
releases.json manifest, creating stubs automatically.
Changed
- Anonymous API reads are now served from Cloudflare Workers Cache — a global tiered cache rather than per-datacenter, so catalog, org, and search responses warm once and hit worldwide.
Fixed
- Auth sessions are no longer cached — a Workers Cache heuristic was letting
GET /api/auth/get-session responses land in the shared cache, causing signed-in users to appear signed out for up to two hours.
- Admin-gated and authorization-required API responses are no longer stored in shared cache — a gap where write-scoped and admin responses could be served to anonymous callers has been closed.
July 6, 2026
Added
- Self-serve listing on
/submit — enter your domain to validate your releases.json manifest and activate listing immediately; valid manifests show a plain-language preview of detected release locations with an activate button for unlisted domains; invalid manifests display field-level errors with a re-check loop. New POST /v1/listing/validate and POST /v1/listing/activate endpoints support the same flow for API and agent callers.
Changed
- Changelog pages load faster —
/changelog routes now render markdown server-side; shiki and react-markdown no longer ship to the browser on these pages.
July 5, 2026
Added
- Stub organizations appear in the registry catalog — orgs known from a
releases.json manifest but not yet ingested are listed with a stub badge; GET /v1/orgs/:slug and the domain-lookup endpoint return their declared source locations; MCP get_organization and lookup_domain surface stub status and declared release locations instead of an empty sources list.
Changed
- Org overview citation style rebuilt — the Sources section now links to release pages on releases.sh rather than placing inline superscripts; cited sources link inward to the canonical release URL when available and carry
CreativeWork JSON-LD for SEO; the fenced-JSON citation format is retired.
Fixed
- Raw JSON citation blocks no longer appear in org overviews — a generation-truncation edge case was leaking an unterminated JSON code block into the overview body; affected overviews have been repaired.
- Emoji sprites and CI-status badges no longer appear in newly indexed release media — the media pipeline now filters WordPress emoji sprites and CI badge URLs before mirroring.
July 4, 2026
Added
- Release URLs now include a human-readable slug — links look like
/release/rel_...-whats-new-in-v2 instead of bare IDs; old bare-ID links redirect permanently. The slugged canonical URL is now carried through MCP tool outputs, Atom feeds, webhook payloads, Slack cards, and digest emails.
releases.json v2 manifest — declare where your release notes live at /.well-known/releases.json; the registry auto-creates sources from feed, github, and appstore locators and reconciles product metadata, tags, and identity fields without overwriting curator edits.- Docs pages now support deep links and show an "On this page" rail — all
/docs/ section headings have stable anchor IDs, authored cross-section links resolve correctly, and a scrolling sidebar highlights the active section.
- Mobile app discovery from platform link files — iOS apps are auto-discovered from
/.well-known/apple-app-site-association and queued as paused candidates for curator review; no bespoke manifest required.
Changed
- Org overviews now adapt to release velocity — active orgs refresh on a 2-day cycle with a 30-day activity window; quiet orgs use a 90-day fallback; per-org cadence overrides are supported.
- Collection, category, and release-list pages load faster — markdown is now rendered server-side; shiki and react-markdown no longer ship to the browser on list views.
Fixed
- Product rows in org overview panels now link to their product pages.
- Hidden sources no longer appear on public org, product, or search pages — a filtering gap in release feeds, source rows, and organization search results has been corrected.
July 3, 2026
Added
- Release cards now show a "Breaking" severity badge — releases classified as breaking changes display the severity level on feed cards, org pages, and search results; the detail page gains a migration notes block when notes are present. The
breaking and migrationNotes fields are now returned on all release read API endpoints and search results.
- releases.sh is now listed on integrations.sh — the REST API, MCP server, and CLI are declared as integration surfaces with auth instructions;
/openapi.json on releases.sh proxies the live OpenAPI 3.1 spec, and the MCP server card now includes a connect URL for integration scanners.
Changed
- MCP
get_release and search tool calls now serve cached results, and the latest-releases edge cache is flushed on publish — faster repeated MCP reads and new releases appear in feeds immediately without waiting for a cache TTL.
July 2, 2026
Fixed
- Clicking into a release or org from the feed now scrolls to the top of the page — a Next.js 16 routing change had caused page transitions to land partway down the destination.
- Source submission form now shows the specific rejection reason instead of a generic error — rate-limited, oversized, and service-unavailable responses each display their correct message.
July 1, 2026
Changed
- Discovery agents and search queries now use Claude Sonnet 5 — higher-quality changelog extraction and keyword search across the registry.
- Webhook delivery activity now shows the delivery format — the account notifications panel displays whether each webhook was sent as Slack or standard JSON.
- New orgs added to the registry now have AI content generation enabled by default — overviews and summaries start generating automatically for freshly curated orgs.
June 30, 2026
Added
- Settings Webhooks & API panel now has a click-to-copy install command — tap the MCP or CLI card to copy its setup command, with manual card navigation between them.
Changed
- Disabled placeholder controls removed from active settings pages — Bio on Profile, Instant release alerts on Notifications, and Default visibility on General no longer appear in the live UI.
- Org overviews now regenerate weekly for active orgs (was every two weeks) — orgs with recent release activity get fresher summaries more often.
- API and MCP reads are now cached for anonymous traffic — most catalog, org, and collection endpoints serve from a worker-level cache on repeat requests; nine MCP read tools (latest releases, catalog, orgs, collections, and others) additionally cache results.
Fixed
- Settings right-hand rail now renders as a side column on wide screens — the panel was appearing as a footer block below the main content.
June 29, 2026
Changed
- Sign-in, sign-up, forgot-password, and reset-password pages unified — all authentication screens now share the centered card layout introduced with the OAuth and device flows, with consistent typography, button styles, and dark-mode support.
June 25, 2026
Added
- User and workspace avatar uploads — upload a photo from Account → Profile (user avatar) or Account → General (workspace avatar); avatars appear in the account menu, settings sidebar, and workspace switcher. Workspace General also adds editable company website, changelog URL, and GitHub handle fields.
Changed
- Account settings rebuilt with a new design — a two-pane layout with a grouped sidebar, workspace selector, and individually-addressable pages for Profile, Security, Notifications, General, and Webhooks & API; the header account dropdown gains a workspace switcher with switch and create actions.
- Org pages redesigned — wider layout with a new header, "Copy for agent" split-button (agent prompt / page link / Markdown), product tiles with sparklines and cadence indicators in the Overview, "By product" chips in Releases, sources grouped by product with type badges in Sources, an About / Export context rail, and a dot indicator that lights when releases ship after your last visit.
- OAuth and device authorization flow redesigned — consent, device-code entry, and device-approval screens now share a centered card layout with a connection visual, collapsible permission groups, and full dark-mode support.
Fixed
- Org page mobile layout restored — headers, tabs, release rows, and install commands wrap correctly on narrow screens after the redesign introduced overflow.
- Account settings copy corrected — MCP install command, Homebrew tap URL, and workspace profile descriptions now match the real commands and routes.
June 24, 2026
Added
- Slack delivery format for webhooks — set
format: "slack" on a subscription and point it at an incoming-webhook URL to receive releases as Slack Block Kit cards; the default HMAC-signed JSON delivery path is unchanged.
- Workspaces now support member and invitation management — invite teammates by email, toggle member/admin roles, remove or leave a workspace, and accept or decline invitations from the emailed link.
Changed
- Digest email subjects now include the covered date — daily digests show "Jun 24, 2026" and weekly digests show "week of Jun 17, 2026" alongside the update count, making threads easier to find in your inbox.
June 23, 2026
Changed
- CLI reference docs at releases.sh now document
--page-all streaming output, --fields field projection, --input JSON payloads, and --dry-run for write commands; the stale "Summaries & Comparisons" page documenting removed commands has been removed.
June 22, 2026
Changed
- Web frontend polish sweep — stat counts in the homepage hero use tabular digits to prevent layout shift; headings and summaries use balanced line-breaking; image borders are now neutral instead of tinted; interactive controls across the site (follow, load-more, copy, theme toggle, lightbox) respond with a subtle scale-on-press; copy and theme-switch icons cross-fade instead of hard-swapping.
June 21, 2026
Changed
- Digest email delivery and webhook release fan-out are now queue-backed — each recipient gets an independent retry budget so a transient failure no longer silently drops messages.
June 20, 2026
Added
whats_changed MCP tool and GET /v1/whats-changed API endpoint — given a package name and from/to versions, returns the changelog entries in that range with per-release breaking-change verdicts (none / minor / major) and migration notes; SDK, tool, and platform releases now receive automated breaking-change classification at ingest so results are immediately available.
June 19, 2026
Added
- Self-serve webhook management — create, list, update, and delete subscriptions from Account → Notifications with org-scoped or follows-scoped targeting, per-event product and release-type filters, delivery activity history, and auto-pause on repeated failures with an owner email alert when a subscription is paused.
Changed
- Feed rows with multiple image attachments now display a compact bottom gallery of chips; single-attachment rows keep the existing side-rail preview.
- Following feed now renders immediately on page load — the first page is server-prefetched and cached (~90 s TTL) so the timeline appears without a client-side loading flash.
- Personalized feed API (
GET /v1/me/feed) switched to cursor pagination; the ?page= parameter is rejected with 400.
Fixed
- Product and source bylines no longer display version labels for codename-versioned releases — only numeric semver/calver strings appear; model codenames (e.g. "Opus 4.7") are omitted.
June 18, 2026
Added
- Account settings rebuilt with a two-column layout and individually-addressable pages — profile, email, security, connections, notifications, and API keys each get their own URL; a sidebar link shortcuts to your Following feed.
- Source suggestions that include a contact email now receive an acknowledgment.
- Bulk release management API —
DELETE /v1/releases/batch and POST /v1/releases/batch-suppress delete or toggle suppression for a list of releases in one call.
Changed
- Org overview pages now show enriched product chips — cadence badge, sparkline, windowed release count, weekly average, and latest version synced to the timeline brush — replacing the per-source card lists.
- Follow and admin controls repositioned into the title row on org and product pages; follow button is larger and pill-shaped; page layouts widened.
Fixed
- Collection daily summaries now incorporate actual changelog text — SDK version-tag releases (e.g.
wrangler@4.101.0) now produce a meaningful description instead of echoing the version string.
- "Get Started" install steps on the homepage no longer show agent-launcher dropdown menus; copy-to-clipboard remains.
June 17, 2026
Fixed
- Digest emails now include real release notes in SDK version-tag rollups — the most substantive tags render as
version — one-liner with a "+N more" overflow link; pure dependency-bump entries are ranked out.
June 16, 2026
Added
- "Get Listed" docs page at
releases.sh/docs/listing — explains how changelog owners declare their source via releases.json or .well-known/releases.json, with examples, the honored fields, and fill-if-empty / curator-protected rules. The JSON schema for editor autocompletion is served at releases.sh/schemas/releases.json.
Fixed
- Social preview cards now appear on org sub-pages (releases, sources), product and source changelogs, highlights, source detail pages, and standalone pages (catalog, categories, submit) that were previously missing
og:image.
- Docs and legal pages now have correct heading structure — the page title renders as
<h1> instead of <h2>; og:url and og:type are also filled in across these pages.
- The JSON Schema URL at
releases.sh/schemas/releases.json now resolves — a routing rule was incorrectly intercepting .json paths under /schemas/ and returning 404.
June 15, 2026
Added
- Signed-in admin users can now access the full admin surface in production — inline edit menus on orgs, sources, products, and releases; the Status dashboard; and Fetch Log and Playbook tabs on org pages. Previously only available in local development.
Changed
- The /live feed now shows rich release cards: org avatar and name, source and product identity, descriptive AI title with version tag, two-line summary, and inline media or video preview.
- Feed and collection surfaces now serve AI-generated excerpts instead of the full release body; the complete text stays on the canonical release detail page.
Fixed
- Google Sign-In and One Tap now correctly store the original-cased display email address rather than the dot-stripped lowercase form.
June 14, 2026
Added
- Collection daily summaries — AI-generated headline, one-line summary, and bullet takeaways now appear as a date header above each day's releases on collection pages.
- Account settings now let you change your email address (a confirmation link goes to your current address) and connect or disconnect linked social sign-in accounts.
Changed
- Collection timeline rebuilt: same-product releases in a day collapse into a single grouped card; release cards lead with descriptive AI titles instead of raw version strings; "Show more" appears only when content actually overflows.
Fixed
- RSS feeds that deliver raw markdown in
content:encoded now parse correctly — headings, code spans, and links are preserved instead of being backslash-escaped into plain text.
- Release pages with no content now show a placeholder instead of a blank body.
- Long CLI and MCP install commands now wrap instead of clipping in the copy-to-clipboard inputs.
- The sign-in form on incompatible origins (e.g., preview-deploy URLs) now explains why authentication won't work and links to the canonical site.
June 13, 2026
Added
- Passkey sign-in — use Face ID, Touch ID, or a hardware security key to authenticate. Manage, rename, and remove passkeys from the account settings page.
Fixed
- Relative links in ingested release notes (e.g.
/docs, ./changelog) now resolve against the vendor's domain when rendered — no more broken in-page navigation.
- Coverage-side release URLs now redirect to the canonical release page instead of returning 404.
June 12, 2026
Added
- "What agents ask" section on the homepage — three example prompts showing what the platform answers for agents tracking their stack, ecosystem integrations, and industry trends.
Changed
- Homepage refreshes: the org table now has a "Featured" heading; the hero release count displays in compact form (35.6k-style); signed-out visitors see a signup link under the CLI demo.
- Status removed from the top navigation — it remains accessible via the Admin dropdown.
Fixed
- Coverage siblings in the "N other posts cover this launch" rail no longer link to suppressed pages that return 404 — they render as plain, non-linked rows.
June 11, 2026
Added
- Site-wide notices — admins can post a banner or homepage card with a configurable color and an optional dismiss button.
- Avatar facepile previews on category pages and collection search results — up to three member logos so you can recognize what's inside at a glance.
Changed
- Search entity matching now uses word boundaries and relevance ranking — searching "ai" shows AI-focused orgs and products, not every
.ai TLD. The web search page adds a capped "All" tab with per-section "show all →" links, URL-synced tabs (?filter=), and word-boundary highlights. The MCP search tool now uses the same matching logic.
Fixed
- Source fetch now auto-generates AI titles and summaries for newly-inserted releases in the same request, without waiting for the next cron run.
- Release detail API responses are now stale for at most ~90 seconds (down from ~3 minutes).
June 10, 2026
Added
/updates — releases.sh now publishes its own product changelog at releases.sh/updates, with daily entries and per-day permalink pages going back to March.- API key last-used time — the account page now shows when each read-only API key was last used, or marks it as never used, making it easy to spot stale keys before revoking them.
June 9, 2026
Added
- Daily and weekly digest emails for the organizations and products you follow.
- Inline video cards — Loom, Wistia, Vimeo, and YouTube links in release notes now render as play-thumbnails.
Changed
- Clearer visuals and hierarchy for organization, product, and collection results in search.
- Version-tagged releases now collapse into a tidy per-product rollup on your Following feed and in digests.
June 8, 2026
Added
- Follow organizations and products, and get a personalized feed of everything they ship.
- Subscribe to that feed over RSS/Atom with a private feed token.
- Manage who you follow from the CLI and the MCP server.
Changed
- Release breadcrumbs now show the organization logo and product name.
June 7, 2026
Added
- Sign in with Releases — Releases is now an OAuth/OIDC provider, so other apps and MCP clients can authenticate users through it.
June 6, 2026
Fixed
- Bluesky accounts now appear among an organization's linked social profiles.
June 5, 2026
Added
releases login — sign in from your browser with no copy-paste tokens (device authorization).- Create read-only API keys for your account from the web dashboard.
- Claim and shape your organization's listing with a
releases.json file on your own domain.
Changed
- Refreshed homepage with an animated backdrop and a search-first CLI demo.
June 4, 2026
Added
- Sign in with Google, including Google One Tap and avatar sync.

- Organization and product pages now show a "Featured in" sidebar listing the collections they belong to.
Changed

Added
- GitHub star counts now appear on repository-centric pages.
- A new public status page with health checks for the service.
June 1, 2026
Added
- Add a timeframe filter to the search page to narrow results to a recent window.
Changed

- Refreshed the home page hero headline and subhead.
Fixed
- Search is now live and responsive as you type, with no dropped characters or stale results.
- The MCP server now flags an ambiguous bare source or product slug instead of quietly resolving to the wrong organization.
- Cleaned up the header navigation, made sidebar domains clickable, and fixed the mobile menu stacking.
May 31, 2026
Added
- Release images in feeds now open in a redesigned lightbox that keeps the release in context, with left/right paging between every image.
May 30, 2026
Added
- Browse every tracked organization on a new A-to-Z catalog page, reachable from the header nav.
- The home page now spotlights a curated set of featured organizations.
- Filter releases on an organization feed by time range — last 30 days, 3 months, year, or all time.
- Filter organizations by category in the MCP server's list_organizations tool.
Changed
- Aliased category links now resolve to the right category across the web app and MCP server.
May 29, 2026
Added
- Track product-launch videos: YouTube channels and playlists can now be followed as a source, with their launches indexed as releases.
- Releases with video play inline on the release page, with a play badge in feeds.
- A new "Open in [agent]" launcher next to the install commands sets up Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, or VS Code to use releases.sh in one click.
- Try-it-yourself use-case tabs on the home page demo — check product updates, track a company, or search across vendors.
- A new release-composition visualization on detail pages and feeds shows what a release is made of at a glance.
Changed
- Same-day App Store versions now roll up into a single entry in the organization feed, and mobile app releases get a more compact presentation across the site.
- SDK and package releases now group into clusters in organization and collection feeds for easier scanning.
May 28, 2026
Added
- Product pages now show their releases directly, in the web app and in the JSON and markdown formats, with a link to the product's Atom feed.
- Search can now be scoped to a single product.
- Ask for a product's releases in the MCP server and get one feed merged across all of its sources.
Changed
- Product pages now share the same layout as organization and source pages.
- Release feed rows now lead with a descriptive title and demote the version number.
Fixed
- Visiting a product's /changelog URL now lands on the product page instead of a 404.
May 27, 2026
Added
- Product pages are now the default landing and feed unit: a bare /org/product URL resolves to the product hub, complete with its own activity timeline, heatmap, and per-product Atom feed.
- Search results and MCP search hits now show the owning product for each release.
- Owners and curators can rename an organization, product, or source display name directly from the admin menus.
Changed
- Mobile app releases now render as a compact app-update row instead of the standard version-and-screenshot layout.
May 26, 2026
Added
- Recommend a new changelog source to index right from the web app.
- Release pages now carry richer structured data and clearer, keyword-aware feed titles for better search-engine and social previews.
Fixed
- Release images that previously showed "Image unavailable" now render correctly, as proxied image URLs are unwrapped to the underlying asset.
May 25, 2026
Added
- Track iOS and macOS apps: App Store versions are now indexed as releases, with app icons, platform badges, and an "Available on" affordance on product and source pages.
- MCP release-feed tools now drill from a list into release detail with full, web-parity markdown and inline images.
Changed
- Long overview source lists now collapse behind a "Show more" toggle and release thumbnails are downscaled for a tidier layout.
May 23, 2026
Changed
- The "More from this org" and "From other products" rails now show consistent, content-first release cards ranked by recency and quality, dropping stale and empty entries.
May 22, 2026
Added
- Scope search and latest-releases queries to a time window with since and until filters across the API, MCP server, and CLI.
- Send feedback straight from the CLI with the new releases feedback command.
- The home page now leads with an animated terminal demo and a featured-collections promo block.
May 21, 2026
Added
- The org overview and sources pages now fold an organization's SDK sources into one collapsible group so SDK churn no longer crowds out the main changelog.
- Filter releases by kind in the MCP get_latest_releases and list_catalog tools.
Changed
- The home page recent ticker shows a roomier three-line byline and syntax-highlighted, click-to-copy install commands.
- Summary-only feed releases are now enriched by following through to the full article, so entries carry real content instead of a teaser.
May 20, 2026
Added
- Mint, list, and revoke scoped, revocable API tokens to authenticate with the API and CLI.
- MCP tools now enforce token scopes, so a read-only token can no longer perform writes.
May 19, 2026
Added
- Classify and filter products and sources by kind — platform, SDK, mobile, desktop, docs, integration, or tool — across the API and MCP server.
- Pin a single product to a collection instead of bringing its whole organization along.
Changed
- The catalog, search, and home page now hide organizations with no indexed releases by default, with an opt-in to show them.
- Boilerplate releases with no real content no longer get a misleading auto-generated summary.
May 18, 2026
Added
- Images, GIFs, and videos embedded in GitHub release notes now appear in the release's media.
Changed
- Release timelines and collections now load more as you scroll instead of needing a Load more click.
- Search now ranks fresher releases higher, so recent results rise above older ones with similar relevance.
- Release content converted from HTML now renders more reliably, with code blocks and examples preserved.
May 17, 2026
Added
- Releases now show a composition chip summarizing how many fixes, features, and enhancements they contain.
Fixed
- Overview citation markers now snap to the end of the cited sentence instead of splitting words, and overviews render fully expanded by default.
May 15, 2026
Added
- Search now lives in the header on every page, and organization avatars appear throughout the homepage.
- Social accounts in the sidebar now show platform icons and link straight to the live profile.
- Feeds now expose each release's content size so agents can decide whether to fetch the full body before spending a round-trip.
Fixed
- Fixed duplicate releases appearing in the feed for some RSS-based sources.
May 14, 2026
Added
- Collections now show up in search results across the web, API, MCP server, and CLI.
- Release notes now render GitHub-flavored extras — note/warning callouts, emoji shortcodes, and @user and org/repo#123 autolinks.
- Feed lists show a small +N indicator when a release bundles related coverage from other sources.
- AI summaries now appear as a clearly labeled block above the release body.
Changed
- Prereleases like alphas, betas, and RCs are hidden by default, and version ranges render as a clear before-and-after diff.
Fixed
- The Latest version and version range now pick the highest semantic version instead of the most recently published, so backported patches no longer masquerade as the newest release.
May 13, 2026
Changed
- Org chip and release-type filters on collection and category timelines now apply across the whole feed, not just the current page.
May 12, 2026
Added
