New Features:

  • Re-review GitHub PRs as new commits land: A github_pr trigger now accepts a new opt-in trigger_on value, updated, that turns Promptless into a review bot for an open pull request: whenever new commits are pushed, it re-reviews the PR and keeps its suggestions current as the code evolves. It’s inert by default and requires an explicit repos list to enable (repos: all isn’t allowed), and it applies to GitHub only. See Trigger modes.

  • Start a Promptless session from a Jira ticket: A Jira ticket can now start a Promptless session—assign the ticket to Promptless, add a promptless label, @mention Promptless in a comment, or configure a trigger on a Jira project, label, or status—and Promptless replies on the ticket with the documentation PR linked. See Jira triggers.

  • Trigger documentation work from a GitLab merge-request comment: Mentioning @promptless anywhere in a merge-request comment now starts documentation work, bringing GitLab to parity with the existing GitHub comment-mention behavior. Matching is case-insensitive. Use @promptless-for-oss for OSS. GitLab also recognizes /promptless at the start of a comment line as a less-reliable alternative. A comment on a merge request Promptless opened revises that suggestion, while a comment on any other merge request starts a new documentation review for it. Because a mention is an explicit request, Promptless reviews that merge request even if the project isn’t in your trigger’s repo list—it only needs your GitLab connection to have access to the project. Unlike GitHub, a mention in a merge-request title or description does not trigger; only comments do. See GitLab merge requests.

  • Acknowledge GitLab merge-request comment mentions with a 👀 reaction: When you @mention @promptless in a GitLab merge-request comment, Promptless now adds a 👀 reaction to acknowledge it saw your request, bringing GitLab to parity with the existing GitHub behavior. The reaction appears even when Promptless decides no documentation change is needed. See GitLab merge requests.

  • Post citations as inline comments on GitLab merge requests: Citations for a suggestion now post as diff-positioned discussion threads directly on the GitLab merge request, bringing GitLab to parity with the existing GitHub behavior, with an unanchored file-and-line thread as a fallback when a citation can’t be anchored to the diff. See GitLab projects.

  • Run documentation checks on a schedule: Promptless now supports schedule triggers—run standing instructions on a repeating cron schedule, at most once an hour, in the timezone you pick (for example, a Monday-morning check that the changelog and release-notes page still agree). See Schedule triggers.

  • Triage every screenshot in one place: The new Screenshot Updates tab gathers every screenshot on an open suggestion into a single gallery grouped by doc collection, so you can spot and act on screenshots that are easy to miss one suggestion at a time. Click a screenshot to jump straight to its suggestion. See Screenshot Updates.

  • Start documentation tasks from your editor over MCP: Connect Promptless to an MCP client like Claude Code or Cursor and start documentation tasks, search existing suggestions, list your collections, and check task status without leaving your editor. The connection authorizes with OAuth, so there’s no API key to create or paste, and every org member can set it up for themselves. The existing API key path is unchanged for server-to-server callers. See MCP triggers.

Improvements:

  • CI failures now appear as a distinct “CI failed” event: When a check fails on a suggestion’s docs PR, it now shows up in the suggestion’s event timeline as its own GitHub-branded “CI failed” event, visually separate from other events. Previously this surfaced as a generic Promptless “Feedback” item, which made machine-reported CI status look like human feedback. The event’s summary names the specific checks that failed—for example, “build, lint failed.” When more than three checks fail, it abbreviates, as in “build, lint, e2e and 2 more failed.” The event is tied to the docs PR the failure came from.

  • Research breakdown now reads Knowledge Base inline and attributes delegated research: Each trigger’s research breakdown—on the Triggers page and a suggestion’s Triggers & Analysis tab—now shows Knowledge Base reads inline, in the sequence the agent read them, instead of grouped at the end. Delegated research appears as an attributed branch labeled with the subagent type and its tool-call count. A “research agents” callout appears next to the summary when Promptless delegates research. See Research breakdown.

Bug Fixes:

  • Image changes now show a before/after diff and apply correctly: Image and screenshot changes in a suggestion previously appeared as empty file cards in the dashboard suggestion viewer; they now display as a side-by-side before/after image diff, and an added or deleted image shows only the side that exists. Suggestions that changed only images were also mislabeled as rejected and couldn’t be applied at all—they now show their real status and can be applied and published like any other suggestion. Finally, rejecting an individual image in a suggestion used to delete the file; it now restores the original version, matching how rejecting a text file already worked.
