What

Weekly changelog for 2026-09-28 and its launch thread.

  • Entry: apps/marketing/content/changelog/2026-09-28-file-editing-instant-workspaces.mdx
  • Launch thread: apps/marketing/content/changelog/2026-09-28-tweet.md (not rendered by the site)
  • New images: 2026-09-28-save-conflict-hero.png, 2026-09-28-file-changed-banner.png, 2026-09-28-mobile-settings.png. The iPhone hero is reused from /images/blog/superset-mobile/.

Sections

Left out on purpose: cloud environments (#7838 to #7874, still gated), the security PRs reverted by #7834, the #7870/#7871 revert pair, and the canary-only #7873.

How I checked it

  • Screenshots come from the dev desktop on a throwaway demo repo. The absolute path in the dialog was replaced before capture.
  • bun run lint exits 0. bun run --cwd apps/marketing lint:prose reports 0 errors and 0 warnings.
  • The entry renders at localhost:3242/changelog/2026-09-28-file-editing-instant-workspaces with all images.

Typefully drafts X 10972409 and LinkedIn 10972410 are planned, not published.


Summary by cubic

Adds the weekly changelog for 2026-09-28 covering safer file editing, instant workspace startup, and GPT-6/Claude Opus 5.5, plus 7 improvements and 14 bug fixes.

Also this week: new workspaces open in about a second while the agent names them in the background, GPT-6 and Opus 5.5 are in the model picker, and files get auto save plus drag and rename in the file tree, thanks to @theblondealex.

Plus a bunch of bug fixes. Thanks to everyone in the v2 open beta for the reports, please keep them coming!

Only the page creator can stop or add listening agents. On focus change also
saves on window blur, and Auto Save pauses on conflicts. Taken-down pages do
not unfurl. Model picker coverage matches agent-models.ts.
