See the important parts of job logs first
Job logs on the new build page are easier to scan now that Buildkite folds de-emphasized system groups into compact rows by default. Command output and the groups you usually need remain visible, while setup and other supporting output take up less space. Select a folded row to reveal just that section in place.
Test your schedules with or without edits
Run a pipeline schedule as configured, or customize a one-off build without changing the schedule. Helpful when you need to validate your schedules before turning them on. Two actions on the schedule page make the choice clear: Run now asks for confirmation, then creates a build using the schedule's saved message, commit, branch, and environment variables.
Buildkite Helm chart: Slack App integration
The Buildkite Agent Stack for Kubernetes Helm chart now includes built-in support for Slack App integration. You can configure Slack notifications directly in your Helm values without needing a separate sidecar or custom webhook setup.
Manage secrets from pipeline settings
If you can edit a pipeline and manage its associated cluster, you can now create and manage secrets directly from Pipeline settings → Secrets . Pipeline secrets are cluster secrets with access restricted to the current pipeline.
Understand pull request retry patterns with OpenTelemetry
Understand PR retry patterns in your existing observability tool, without joining webhook data. Buildkite's server-side OpenTelemetry traces include PR metadata, including for GitHub merge-queue builds, and job retry metadata to compare manual and automatic retries and follow attempts.
Elastic CI Stack v7 is here with Buildkite Agent v4
Elastic CI Stack for AWS v7 is now available, bringing Buildkite Agent v4 to both Linux and Windows instances. Agent v4 clears out functionality deprecated since v3 arrived in 2018 and makes supported behavior the default. New capabilities have continued shipping in v3, so for most setups the move changes nothing about how you use the agent.
Get notified about new macOS base image releases
You can now subscribe to RSS feeds for macOS base image releases on Buildkite hosted agents, making it easier to keep up with changes to your build environments. For updates to stable base images used in production, add the stable RSS feed to your preferred RSS reader.
Choose the organization for each Remote MCP Server connection
If you belong to more than one Buildkite organization, you can now choose which one each Remote MCP Server connection uses. Add the organization's slug to the server URL: https://mcp.buildkite.com/mcp?organization=your-organization When your MCP client asks you to authorize, that organization is already selected.
