Orbit 2026.09.08 adds similar-issue suggestions, a workspace project updates feed, and comment moderation. This source release includes the refreshed README, 40 current product screenshots, and a backfilled changelog. Self-hosting remains Preview.
Added
- Similar-issue suggestions while creating an issue, using title similarity
within the selected team and the current user's permissions. Suggestions open
the existing issue for review. #379 - A workspace project updates feed under Projects > Updates, bringing
project health reports together with links to their projects.
#372 - Members and admins can delete other people's comments, with authorization
enforced on the server. #399
Fixed
- Duplicate suggestions disappear as soon as an issue is submitted.
#429 - Isolated issue failure tests and restored workspace provider mocks to prevent
test files from affecting one another.
#426,
#438
Changed
- Vercel preview builds follow pull request readiness, with an operator guide
for the deployment gate. #341 - Updated the Next.js and React dependency group and GitHub Actions.
#431,
#433 - Defined analytics lead and cycle time and removed unused analytics components.
#400,
#427 - Refreshed the README and demo screenshots, backfilled the release history,
and documented source releases and upgrades.
Upgrade notes
No new database migration or environment variable is introduced relative to
2026.09.06. Duplicate suggestions use PostgreSQL's pg_trgm extension, which
is part of the existing database setup. Run the normal database release check
before deploying. Self-hosting remains Preview; this release does not enable
Slack globally or complete the production readiness checklist.
