Buildkite Cache is generally available

GA2 days agoUnverifiedAdded Oct 23, 2026

Buildkite Cache is now generally available on hosted and self-hosted agents. It gives every job a way to reuse work an earlier job already did, from a dependency download to an entire build command. It's built into the Buildkite agent as buildkite-agent cache commands you can call anywhere in a pipeline.

Manage Test Engine workflows with Terraform and the REST API

You can now manage Test Engine workflows with Terraform and the REST API instead of configuring each one in the UI. The new buildkite_test_suite_workflow resource in Buildkite Terraform provider v1.43.0 lets you define monitors, filters, and actions in code, and import existing workflows.

Filter webhook job events by queue

Webhooks can now send job events for only the queues you choose. If your autoscaler, dashboard, or alerting only cares about one queue, it no longer has to receive every job event in your organization and throw most of them away. For example, a GPU autoscaler can now receive job.scheduled events only for jobs on your gpu queue.

Configure OpenTelemetry at the cluster level

You can now turn on OpenTelemetry tracing for every agent in a cluster with one setting. Choose an OpenTelemetry notification service in the cluster's settings. Each agent that registers in the cluster then exports traces to that service's endpoint, using its headers, with no OTLP configuration on the agent.

Inspect matrix jobs directly on the build canvas

Matrix steps previously appeared as a single node on the build canvas, with individual jobs shown in a separate panel. Now you can expand them in place to see each job's status and duration, and navigate directly to the job. Similar to group steps , failed matrix steps now start expanded and focus on failed jobs.

Updateunverified

Retry jobs with narrower API token permissions

Retry automation no longer needs the broader write_builds REST API scope. The new retry_builds scope allows a token to retry failed jobs in existing builds or individual eligible jobs, without granting access to the create-build or rebuild endpoints. When creating or editing an API access token, select Build Retries ( retry_builds ).
