Get notified in Slack or email when a workflow needs approval
You can now get notified by Slack or email when a workflow is paused on an approval job. Each notification includes a link that takes you straight to the approval job in CircleCI, where you can approve or cancel it.
Get tagged in Slack notifications
Link your CircleCI identity to your Slack identity, and CircleCI will @-mention you directly in Slack notifications for workflows you triggered , so you can immediately spot which commit or PR is yours. To use this feature, you must be using the CircleCI Slack integration . It is not supported for notifications configured through the legacy Slack orb.

The Xcode 27.0 Beta 4 image is now available to be used in CircleCI pipelines. The full manifest of installed software can be found here .
Runner Provisioner Release 0.1.2
This release lets a single provisioner deployment run many resource classes and ships a ready-to-use VM image so you can stand up a pool without building your own. New: Multiple resource classes per deployment. One deployment now scales many resource classes at once, instead of needing a separate deployment per class.
UPDATE: EOL notice for some pipeline values starting with pipeline.trigger_parameters.*
UPDATE: Effective September 21, 2026 , support for all pipeline values starting with pipeline.trigger_parameters.circleci.* and pipeline.trigger_parameters.github_app.* will be discontinued. These values will no longer be guaranteed to be present in pipelines after this date. The previously communicated date for end of life was August 1, 2026.
Code signing for iOS and macOS managed by API
You can now manage code signing for iOS and macOS builds through the CircleCI API. Upload your Apple signing certificate ( .p12 ) and provisioning profiles, create a signing bundle, then reference it by name in your macos executor using the new code_signing key and the install_signing_bundle step.
Server Release 4.9.5
Updates The source config size limit for orb imports has been removed for Server deployments. Pipelines that previously failed because their combined orb configuration exceeded the 6–8 MB threshold will now process successfully without any configuration changes.
Runner Release 3.1.11
Machine Runner: Machine runner now passes CircleCI’s built-in environment variables through to command_prefix wrapper scripts, so a wrapper can read job details such as the build number and branch. Container Runner: Fixed garbage collection so that when one agent replica dies, the surviving replicas clean up the task pods it left behind.
