Release Notes

2026-10-03

Share and review Knowledge Base articles, keep Service Desk replies with the right customer, recover lost support email, and start child work in the right sprint.

In the 16 days since our last note, we shipped to production 63 times and delivered more than 130 new features, improvements and fixes you can see in DevStride. That pace comes from our own build automation: the DevStride plugin for Claude Code plans, builds, reviews and releases our roadmap straight from DevStride. Here are the highlights!
