+title: January 2026
+---
+
+**New Features:**
+
+* **Atlassian Integration (Jira + Confluence):** Connect both Jira and Confluence through a single unified Atlassian integration. Promptless now searches your Confluence spaces alongside Jira tickets—pulling documentation patterns, terminology, and architectural decisions when creating suggestions. This replaces the previous Jira-only integration—if you previously connected Jira, reconnect to access Confluence while preserving your Jira project configuration.
+
+
+
+
+
+**Improvements:**
+
+* **Calibration Progress Tracking:** Track your progress in helping Promptless learn your documentation preferences. The new Calibration Progress banner shows how many suggestions you've published and how much feedback you've provided—Promptless uses both to understand your writing style, tone, and standards. The banner appears on all dashboard pages until you reach calibration goals (5 published suggestions and 5 pieces of feedback), then disappears automatically.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+* **Ready Count Includes Open PRs:** The Ready count on the Change History page now includes suggestions with open documentation PRs—not just unpublished suggestions. Previously, only suggestions without PRs were counted as ready, so you can now see everything that needs your review in one place.
+* **Suggestions Stay Active When Being Reviewed:** Viewing a suggestion now counts as activity—so suggestions you're actively reviewing stay active even if no edits are made for over 30 days. Previously, suggestions would be automatically pruned after 30 days of inactivity. This works alongside the "Viewed" file checkbox added in December for tracking review progress.
+* **Faster Suggestion Page Loading:** The Change History page now loads faster. Suggestion metadata—titles, descriptions, and trigger details—appears immediately while the diff loads in parallel.
+* **Smarter Screenshot Capture:** Promptless now makes better decisions about when to capture fresh screenshots for documentation. When processing UI changes, Promptless proactively identifies which screenshots need updating and captures fresh, high-quality images from your live product.
+* **Screenshot Cropping:** Promptless can now crop screenshots to focus on specific UI elements—highlighting exactly what users need to see without extra clutter.
+
+**Bug Fixes:**
+
+* **Confluence Integration Reliability:** Fixed an issue where Confluence workspace connection data could be lost when refreshing the integration, making Confluence spaces temporarily unavailable.
+* **New Task Project Dropdown:** Fixed the New Task feature to only show doc collections that have completed analysis—preventing errors when submitting documentation requests. Previously, users could select doc collections that were still being analyzed, which would fail when submitted.
+* **Promptless Capture Reliability:** Fixed intermittent failures when capturing screenshots.
+* **Citation Display in Editor:** Fixed citation icons overlapping when multiple citations reference the same line—they now stack properly for easier viewing.
+* **Citation Popup Positioning:** Fixed citation popup positioning and arrow placement issues in the editor, ensuring popups display correctly even when citations are stacked.
+* **Comment Bubble Overflow:** Fixed comment bubbles extending beyond the editor viewport, keeping all interface elements properly contained within the editing area.
+* **Cleaner Suggestion Diffs:** Fixed suggestion diffs to exclude internal system files—diffs now show only your documentation changes, making them easier to review.
+* **Slack Notification Diff Files:** Fixed diff file attachments in Slack notifications—teams can now see the full diff of documentation changes directly from Slack without needing to open the PR or web interface.
+* **Git Sync Reliability:** Improved reliability of git sync operations when Promptless pushes documentation changes—sync operations now properly wait for concurrent git processes to complete, preventing intermittent failures.
+* **Git Repository Access Reliability:** Fixed intermittent failures from git configuration lock contention when processing multiple documentation updates simultaneously.
+* **GitHub PR Processing:** Improved reliability when processing GitHub PRs with many file changes—Promptless now handles large PRs with multiple files more consistently, preventing intermittent errors during analysis.
+* **Background Job Processing:** Improved reliability of background job processing—jobs now properly initialize cache clients, preventing intermittent failures during documentation generation.
+* **Suggestion Tracking with Multiple Doc Collections:** Fixed suggestion tracking with multiple doc collections—trigger events now link to the correct suggestions. Previously, when multiple agents responded to the same trigger (like a Slack message) but used different doc collections, trigger events could link to the wrong suggestion.
+* **Change History Page Performance:** Improved performance and reliability of the Change History page when viewing suggestions—page updates now happen more efficiently to ensure consistent functionality.
+* **Internal Evaluation Infrastructure:** Fixed inconsistent default resource configurations in the evals system—resource defaults are now maintained in a single authoritative location, improving reliability of internal evaluation runs.
