<p>Spring is arriving in many parts of the world, and we have a lot of product and platform updates to share from the last few weeks.</p> <h2 id="news-and-updates">News and updates</h2> <ul> <li>We shipped support for webhook filtering in our automation flow, including filtering builds by changed paths and related webhook conditions. This was tracked in <a href="https://github.com/readthedocs/readthedocs.org/issues/12707">Add support for webhook filtering #12707</a>.</li> <li>We published our website changelog post for <code>llms.txt</code> and <code>llms-full.txt</code> support to make AI-friendly project metadata easier to discover. See <a href="https://github.com/readthedocs/website/pull/375">Add llms.txt changelog post #375</a>.</li> <li>We improved the Addons configuration UI by exposing the Custom Script input URL directly in the form, tracked in <a href="https://github.com/readthedocs/ext-theme/issues/689">Addons: expose Custom Script input URL in the UI #689</a>.</li> <li>We fixed a Safari-specific visual diff issue where navigation arrows were not displayed correctly, tracked in <a href="https://github.com/readthedocs/addons/issues/581">Missing navigation arrows on diff for Safari #581</a>.</li> <li>We continued improving build stability by reducing edge cases where builds could remain in non-final states and not be cleaned up correctly. This work is tracked in <a href="https://github.com/readthedocs/readthedocs.org/issues/12473">Builds: some builds are not terminated by our healthcheck cleanup logic #12473</a>.</li> </ul> <h2 id="upcoming-changes">Upcoming changes</h2> <ul> <li>We are continuing to iterate on webhook and automation-rule UX so that more teams can express build conditions without custom scripting.</li> <li>We are continuing to improve Addons customization and cross-browser behavior as more users adopt newer Addons features.</li> </ul> <h2 id="possible-issues">Possible issues</h2> <ul> <li>As we continue tightening webhook and automation behavior, some projects may need to revisit filters and build expectations to match their repository workflow.</li> <li>If you notice unexpected build states or cleanup behavior, please report it so we can keep improving reliability.</li> </ul> <hr> <p>Questions?
