Slite is making its docs readable by agents before it finishes making them prettier.

mcpagent-accessknowledge-baseeditor-layoutcomment-threads
◆Current state
Slite is a team knowledge base whose recent releases split between editor surface work and agent access. The MCP integration now exposes comment threads for reading and resolving, while the editor gained multi-column layouts and a reworked boxed shell that demotes Search and Ask to ordinary sidebar rows. The feed also carries recurring privacy-banner fragments that are crawler artifacts, not releases.
◆Where it's heading
The MCP work is the load-bearing direction. Exposing comment threads — not just document text — means an external agent can participate in the review loop rather than only read the output, which is a different product than a searchable wiki. The layout changes read as groundwork; the release notes themselves say the sidebar rework 'sets the stage' for something larger.
◆Prediction
The natural next step is writing through MCP — posting comments or edits, not just resolving threads. The boxed-layout note explicitly signals a bigger change behind it, but the entries don't say what it is.

◆Recent moves

  1. 3mo ago

    New boxed layout

    The main content area moves into a white box and Search and Ask become ordinary sidebar rows. A visual refresh on its own, but the notes present it as preparation for a larger navigation change rather than a finished one.

    MCP: Read and resolve comment threads

    ⚡ SPARK

    Comment threads become readable and resolvable over MCP, which moves agents from consuming Slite's content to acting inside its review workflow. It is the clearest statement of direction in this window and the reason the editor work reads as secondary.

    Privacy banner text (feed artifact)

    Consent-banner copy captured by the crawler as a changelog row. Not a release.

  4. 3mo ago

    You can now place content side by side in your docs.

    Up to four columns via /column or by dragging blocks, with layouts adapting on smaller screens. Real editor depth for comparison tables and summaries, and the kind of structural formatting that also makes documents easier for the MCP layer to parse.

    A second record of the multi-column release covered elsewhere in this window.

    Privacy link text (feed artifact)

    Another consent-link fragment scraped as an entry. Not a release.
