What is Redocly?

Redocly finishes the Reunite config rename and points its agent at support desks.

Redocly is shipping daily. Platform v2026-10-31.1 makes the `platform` option and `access.rbac.platform` scope usable in `redocly.yaml`, following @redocly/config 0.70.0, which deprecated `reunite` and added `platform.agent.supportDesks`. Projects still using `reunite` keep working. Other recent releases passed tool calls to the AI assistant's search callback, fixed a sign-in path that could bypass an organization's SSO requirement, and improved Platform page load times.

What is Sonarr?

Sonarr 5.0 swaps its interactive search table for cards and trims what counts as advanced.

Sonarr keeps publishing 5.0 test builds every few days. Build 2907 replaces the interactive search table with cards, marks advanced settings and moves fewer settings behind that label, and cuts duplicate requests on load. Build 2870 added TMDb import lists and a Multi-Season Pack release type. Accessibility work continues, with more context on System page and Manual Import buttons.

Redocly finishes the Reunite config rename and points its agent at support desks.

◆ Current state

Redocly is shipping daily. Platform v2026-10-31.1 makes the `platform` option and `access.rbac.platform` scope usable in `redocly.yaml`, following @redocly/config 0.70.0, which deprecated `reunite` and added `platform.agent.supportDesks`. Projects still using `reunite` keep working. Other recent releases passed tool calls to the AI assistant's search callback, fixed a sign-in path that could bypass an organization's SSO requirement, and improved Platform page load times.

◆ Where it's heading

Reunite is being folded into a single Platform identity, and the rename has moved from schema to the editor's configuration form. The agent is widening from feedback and discovery duties toward support desks, which would connect docs work to customer tickets. Enterprise fixes around SSO, seats and permissions continue alongside.

◆ Prediction

Expect a support-desk agent duty built on the new option, and an eventual removal date for `reunite`. The entries do not yet name the supported providers or a removal date.

5.0

Sonarr 5.0 swaps its interactive search table for cards and trims what counts as advanced.

◆ Current state

Sonarr keeps publishing 5.0 test builds every few days. Build 2907 replaces the interactive search table with cards, marks advanced settings and moves fewer settings behind that label, and cuts duplicate requests on load. Build 2870 added TMDb import lists and a Multi-Season Pack release type. Accessibility work continues, with more context on System page and Manual Import buttons.

◆ Where it's heading

5.0 is still mixing contributor features with interface rework and accessibility polish. Performance work now joins it, with cache updates, import list sync and load-time requests all optimized in one build. Basic Auth removal and file safety defaults set its stricter baseline.

◆ Prediction

Expect more interface and accessibility fixes before 5.0 reaches the stable channel. Larger changes are still landing in test builds, so the timing of that release remains unclear.
