Release notes

2026-06-11

New

• Slack channel picker in Space settings. The Slack channel field in Space settings is now a searchable autocomplete. Start typing to see matching public channels. Private channels don't appear in search results — type the name directly and save to link one.
• MCP tool group controls. On the MCP server detail page, each tool group (Read, Write, Blocked) now has a collapse/expand toggle and a group-level permission dropdown. Set a whole group to Allow all, Custom, or Blocked in one click instead of toggling tools individually.

Improvements

• Faster Coding Agent startup. Repositories now check out in the background while the session initialises. Task sessions start noticeably faster, especially for large codebases.
• New-space scan progress banner. After creating a Space, the banner now persists across page navigations and transitions from "scanning" to "MeetAndy learned N new memories about this space" once the initial scan finishes.
• Better handling of large Slack threads. When a thread exceeds 200 messages, Andy fetches the first and last portions and notes in its reply that the thread was too long to read in full.

Fixes

• Fixed Plan tab showing empty when clicking Review from the activity banner before the page had finished loading the task.
• Fixed partial repo checkout: if some repositories fail to check out, Andy now posts a warning in Slack and continues with the repos that did check out, instead of blocking the whole task.
• Fixed the Slack channel field in Space settings rejecting channel names with non-ASCII characters (for example Chinese). Any valid Slack channel name now works, up to Slack's 80-character limit.

UX

• Mark as done button now uses a smaller Check icon and sentence-case label.
• MCP server detail page replaced the back link with a breadcrumb.

2026-06-04

New

• Create Space dialog. Creating a new Space now opens an in-page dialog instead of a separate page. Walk through naming your Space, picking repositories, linking a Jira project, choosing a Slack channel, and inviting teammates — all in one flow. When the Space is ready, Andy immediately scans the connected repos and Jira to build initial Space Memory.
• Edit Space name. Rename a Space from Space settings → General. The name saves automatically when you leave the field.
• Rescan space. A new Rescan space button in Space settings → Memory lets you trigger Andy to re-read your repos and Jira and refresh Space Memory on demand. The button shows live scan progress.

Improvements

• Clarifying questions in the web app. When the Coding Agent asks a clarifying question mid-task, the task page now renders interactive radio and checkbox options — the same experience already available in Slack. Pick an answer and the task continues.
• Better Slack thread context. When you @mention Andy with links to other Slack threads in your message, Andy now reads all linked threads and passes them to the Coding Agent. Previously Andy could miss the current thread when a URL was present, or fail to handle multiple linked threads at once.

UX

• Browser tab titles now reflect the current page. Task pages show the task title, Space pages show the Space name, and other pages show their section name — all in the format "Page | MeetAndy".

2026-05-27

New

• User settings page. A new Settings area consolidates your Profile, Access tokens, and MCP connections in one place. Open it from the user dropdown in the sidebar. The Profile page lets you view your email and update your display name.

UX

• The action banners on the Plan and Walkthrough tabs now include a short description alongside the action buttons, making it clearer what the next step is.

2026-05-20

New

• MeetAndy MCP server. Connect external AI tools (like Claude Code) directly to MeetAndy to look up tasks and Spaces from your editor. See MCP server.
• Personal access tokens. A new personal access tokens page to create and revoke the API tokens used by the MCP server.
• Confluence integration. Connect MeetAndy to Confluence so Andy can read and write pages in your linked Spaces. See Connect Confluence.
• Multiple Jira projects per Space. A Space can now host multiple Jira projects, and the same Jira project can be linked from multiple Spaces. Manage at Space settings → Jira. See Connect Jira.
• Welcome message when Andy joins a Slack channel. When you add Andy to a channel, Andy now posts a short intro with example prompts so the channel knows what to ask.
• New task page replaces the new-task dialog (web app). In the web app, clicking New task in the sidebar now opens a full-page form at /tasks/new, with the same prompt chips, textarea, and attachments as the Space null state, and a Space dropdown pre-selected to your current or last-used Space. See Creating a task.

Improvements

• Selectable answers when Andy needs to clarify. When the Coding Agent asks a clarifying question mid-task, it now attaches the answer options in Slack: radio buttons for single-choice, checkboxes for multiple. Pick an answer and the task continues.
• Better automatic task titles. Andy's intent classifier now produces the task title across both Slack and the web app, so titles read more like your request and less like an excerpt of the message.
• Multiple repositories per Space without a "primary". Connect any number of repos to a Space and remove them freely, as long as at least one stays linked. The Import-Space picker also no longer blocks repos already used elsewhere; the same repo can back more than one Space.
• Outdated Forge app banner on Integrations. The Manage → Integrations page now shows a banner when the MeetAndy Forge app in Jira is behind, with a one-click upgrade link.
• Slack task links are now human-readable. Status update messages Andy posts in Slack use slug-based URLs (for example, hub.meetandy.ai/tasks/MPD-123) instead of opaque UUIDs.

Fixes

• Fixed duplicate user messages appearing in the task Activity timeline.
• Fixed a new Space sometimes not appearing in the sidebar right after it was created.
• Fixed the Space dropdown going blank on non-Space pages.
• Fixed page scrollbar behavior.

2026-05-11

New

• Ask Andy about your team's usage. Questions like "how many tasks did we ship this week?" or "show me a trend of tasks per day" now get answered in the thread, with a chart attached when one helps. See Asking Andy about usage.
• Plan version picker. When Andy revises a plan, every older version is still accessible. Open the Plan tab on a task and use the Latest / v1 / v2 … dropdown in the card header to switch between drafts. See Reviewing Andy's work.
• Linked Jira tickets on the task page. When the Coding Agent creates or updates a Jira ticket while working, the ticket now appears as a chip in the Links section of the Properties panel. One click opens it in Jira. See Task details.

Improvements

• Test Connection on every integration. The Manage → Integrations page now has a Test Connection button on the Slack, GitHub, GitLab, and Jira cards so you can verify Andy can still reach each service without disconnecting and reconnecting.
• Slack reconnect without losing history. Use Reconnect on the Slack card to rotate the bot token in place. Your Slack message history with Andy stays linked. A workspace can only be tied to one MeetAndy company at a time; the install screen now warns you up front. See Connect Slack.

UX

• The three-dot menu on the task header has been replaced by a circled-check Mark as closed icon. The icon hides once the task is in a terminal state.
• While Andy is pushing follow-up commits to an open PR, the Walkthrough tab shows a Making changes to this PR… banner and disables Make changes until the current pass finishes, so you don't queue a second change on top of an in-flight one.

2026-04-28

New

• ZIP archive attachments. Tasks now accept ZIP archives as attachments, and Andy unpacks the contents automatically. Max file size is 5 MB.
• Attachments in the web new-task and comment forms. Upload files when creating a task in the web app, and the same goes for the comment box on the Activity tab. Andy reads them as part of working on the task.
• Memory reads the surrounding thread. When you send a short "remember this" mention in Slack, Andy now reads the rest of the thread instead of just the one message, and stores the right context.

Improvements

• Idle-task reminders are on by default. Every Space starts with idle-task reminders enabled, so long-untouched tasks get nudged or auto-closed. Adjust under Settings → Automation.

Fixes

• PR status self-heals. Tasks that sit in PR_OPEN past the threshold are polled against GitHub / GitLab; if the PR has merged or closed, the task closes too. No more zombie tasks from missed webhooks.
• Fixed Make changes being unavailable on tasks that already had an open PR.
• Fixed the merge flow when a single task had multiple open PRs at once.
• Fixed the action buttons sometimes not appearing after a task paused at its max-turns limit.
• Fixed external resources sometimes not being tracked across multi-turn tasks (e.g. create the Jira ticket on turn 1, write code on turn 2).

2026-04-17

Jira integration

• Manage Jira tickets straight from Slack. Ask Andy to create, look up, or update a Jira ticket without leaving the thread.
• Ticket attachments. Attach one or more files when creating or updating a ticket.
• Rich content in tickets. Tables, code blocks, and headings render correctly in the ticket body (Atlassian Document Format).
• Smoother install flow. The Jira install and uninstall steps were redesigned to be more direct.

Improvements

• More readable Slack messages. Andy's Slack replies render headings, tables, and lists correctly. Long messages read like a document, not a wall of text.
• Space Memory capacity doubled from 1,000 to 2,000 characters, so Andy can hold more project context.
• Faster open of the Spaces list on the dashboard.
• Faster startup for tasks created from the web.

Fixes

• Fixed the Plan tab sometimes not auto-updating.
• Non-coding tasks no longer show a stray Create pull request button.

UX

• Tooltips and dropdowns on mobile no longer mis-trigger or get stuck.

2026-04-10

New

• New navigation. The left sidebar now has a quick-switch Spaces list, a My Tasks entry, and a collapsible / drag-to-resize layout.
• Create and track tasks fully on the web. Create a new task, pick a Space, and submit from the web app, then watch all in-progress and finished tasks in My Tasks. You're no longer locked to Slack for this.
• Cleaner task Activity. The Activity feed hides Andy's working steps by default so the high-level flow is easier to read.

Improvements

• Better Slack formatting for markdown tables and dividers in Andy's replies.
• Faster pre-commit. Format and lint now scan only changed files, not the whole project.
• More reliable branch sync. Andy now syncs before every push, not just when opening a PR.

2026-03-31

New

• Auto-join Space from Slack. If you mention Andy in Slack and you're not yet a member of the Space, Andy adds you and pings the Space admin in the same thread. No more manual add / retry round-trip.

Improvements

• More accurate intent classification. Technical and code questions like "what framework do we use?" no longer get misrouted to memory lookup; they go to code analysis and get a real answer.

2026-03-23

Improvements

• More accurate intent detection. Fixed Andy occasionally classifying a follow-up request as "plan" while it was still in "build" mode.
• More complete answers. Fixed Andy sometimes cutting answers short.
• Faster package installs for yarn / npm.

2026-03-20

New

• Multi-PR tasks. A single task can now be linked to multiple pull requests, for work that needs to ship across several PRs.
• Redesigned Git repository settings. The integration settings page is easier to navigate.

UI

• Chat Memory revision history moved into a dialog, with the editor name shown on every entry.

2026-03-18

New

• Smart intent detection. Andy figures out whether a message means "plan" or "build" automatically. No need to switch modes. The existing plan and build keywords still work.
• Chat Memory revision history. Chat Memory now keeps a full revision history; every change is viewable in the UI with timestamps and the editor's name.
• Identity-aware replies. Andy recognizes who sent the Slack message and combines that with Space Memory to give more on-point answers.

Behavior changes

• Company Admin scope. Company Admins can now manage a Space's settings without first being added as a Space member.

2026-03-15

New

• Learn from conversations. When a task wraps up and Andy spots something worth remembering, it creates a Chat Memory entry automatically.
• Memory conflict resolution. If a new memory contradicts an existing one, Andy asks whether to update or keep.
• Auto-close idle tasks. After a task has been idle long enough, Andy posts a reminder and then marks the task as done.

2026-03-05

New

• GitLab MR code review. Andy can review GitLab merge requests and leave code-quality suggestions.
• Stripe metered billing integration.

Improvements

• Auto-recovery on context overflow. When a conversation exceeds the model's context limit, Andy retries automatically instead of failing with "prompt is too long."
• Long-running tasks no longer killed by mistake. Fixed tasks being misclassified as timed out and force-terminated.
• Looser trigger-keyword parsing. Formats like plan, xxx, plan: xxx, and plan - xxx are all recognized as triggers.
• Stale branch info. Fixed branch info not refreshing after git fetch.
• yarn / npm install failures. Fixed install hangs behind a proxy.
• Multi-repo work. Better hints across repos so Andy lands on the right target.

UI

• User management: added multi-select and filter.
• Layout polish for mobile.

2026-02-25

• GitLab MR code review. Andy can now review GitLab merge requests automatically and leave code-quality suggestions.

2026-02-11

New

• Andy can read Microsoft Office files shared in Slack.

Improvements

• Fewer image-reading hallucinations. Stopped over-shrinking images that caused the model to misread them.
• Faster project startup. Streamlined the Git repository preparation flow.
• Project setup no longer stalls when the Git connection hangs.
• More stable long-running tasks. Fixed long-running tasks occasionally being marked done early.
