Relayer

Every release now carries its provenance, and the serving sheet got the redesign it needed: facts, controls and lifecycle actions each have their own place.

Added

• Source column on the releases list: see at a glance whether a release came from GitHub, the API or the dashboard. Existing releases are classified retroactively.
• Relayer's own changelog now lives on the landing page, rendered live from /changelog/relayer.

Changed

• Release sheet rebuilt with a clear hierarchy: read-only Details (status, source, channel, created, offers), Adoption, Serving controls (targeting, rollout) and Lifecycle (pause, resume, roll back) with the consequence of each action stated next to its button.
• Import from GitHub dialog is wider, so release titles and dates no longer truncate.

Every changelog entry now shows its life story, and the editor stops guessing about your intent.

Added

• Activity timeline on every changelog entry: who created it and how (GitHub webhook auto-draft, import, AI generation, or a person), plus every edit, publish and status change since - sourced from the audit log, so it cannot drift from reality

Changed

• The save button is dirty-aware: disabled until something actually changes, then comes alive; label reads "Save draft" only while the entry is a draft, "Save changes" once published
• Imported entries now carry their GitHub release provenance (release tag and repo) instead of looking hand-written

Fixed

• No-op saves no longer fire API calls or pollute the entry's activity with phantom "Edited" events
• Activity panel no longer refetches on every keystroke in the editor
• Save button no longer shifts layout when toggling between enabled and disabled

v1.1.0 · Targeting, rollback fallback, explainable rollouts

Serving grows up: choose WHICH devices get a release, know exactly what happens to devices on a pulled build, and ask the system why any device gets any version.

Added

• Label targeting per release (tier=canary), fail-closed with fall-through; l.* params on /u/, inline labels on decisions
• Rollback fallback: stranded devices are served the newest published release below as a downgrade (allowDowngrade), with stranded counts and fallback preview before you commit
• "Why this update?" decision trace + per-device Next-check line - the same walk production serves
• Engineering blog at /blog with three launch posts
• Manage serving from CI: PATCH /api/v1/releases (rollout, pause, rollback, targeting)

Changed

• Rollout % and targeting edit freely until the first offer, then only move forward
• Releases tab redesigned: data table, channel filters, serving side panel

v1.0.0 · GA - GitHub connect + the changelog product

Relayer 1.0: connect GitHub and your changelog writes itself from what you actually merged - then you edit, publish, and it IS your public changelog.

Added

• GitHub App connect + per-app Source tab (PRs, commits, releases, tags)
• AI changelog generation: checkpoint-based "since last publish" or per-release scope, PR-link toggle
• Rich editor (TipTap), categories, tags, featured images, editable publish dates
• SEO entry detail pages, curated changelog RSS, sitemap coverage
• Webhook auto-draft on every GitHub release; import past releases as drafts
• Promote from GitHub: turn a tagged release into a served Relayer release
• Usage metering: AI quota + storage meters in org settings

v0.8.0 · Enterprise SSO (beta)

Bring your identity provider: OIDC SSO with per-org configuration, tested against Microsoft Entra.

Added

• SSO provider picker with IdP trust rules and optional email-claim mapping
• Login with SSO flow alongside existing methods

Changed

• Pricing restructured around monthly active devices, flat Team tier, unlimited seats

v0.7.0 · Accounts, hardening + auth telemetry

A production-trust release: account controls, evidence trails and a hardening pass audited end to end.

Added

• Profile page: auth methods, linked GitHub identity, session management
• Versioned Terms acceptance log with consent evidence (IP + user agent)
• Org-visible sign-in event log (sign-ins, failures, sign-outs)

Changed

• Redesigned sign-in/up pages, accessibility end to end
• Production hardening: configurable rate limits, per-account auth limits, error logging

v0.6.0 · Hosted changelog pages + feeds

Every app gets a shareable public changelog and machine-readable feeds - rollbacks disappear from all of them automatically.

Added

• Hosted changelog page per app with human slugs and pagination
• RSS 2.0 and JSON release feeds per channel, CORS-open, cached
• "Get updates" popover (RSS / JSON / page link) on the Releases tab

v0.5.0 · relayerctl, the zero-dependency CLI

Publish from any CI in one line: npx relayerctl releases create ... with artifacts, channel and starting rollout. One binary, an API key, no SDK.

Added

• relayerctl on npm: releases create/list, artifact flags, channel selection
• Safe retries: duplicate versions answer 409, so re-run CI jobs are harmless

v0.4.0 · Push-mode fleets

For fleets where devices never call home: an orchestrator reports state and plans whole update waves in one call, using the exact same decision logic as /u/.

Added

• POST /api/v1/fleet/report - bulk device state, the heartbeat for fleet visibility
• POST /api/v1/fleet/decisions - up to 500 decisions per call, dry-run mode
• Device labels: opaque key/values (customerRef, siteRef, ...) stored and echoed

v0.3.0 · The multi-tenant core

The foundation: devices ask GET /u/... "I am X, running Y - what should I do?" and Relayer answers with staged rollouts, channel policy and full fleet visibility.

Added

• Update-check endpoint with semver-aware comparison and artifact matching
• Staged rollouts: sticky per-device cohorts, pause, permanent rollback
• Channels with min-version policy (below it, updates become required)
• Fleet dashboard: adoption, 24h check-ins, device pages + detail sheet
• Tauri dynamic-updater contract + electron-updater feed out of the box
• Organizations, roles (owner/admin/member), invite links, audit log
