✨ Improvements​

• Direct deep linking to resource details
  You can now access the detail view for workloads, dependencies, projects, variable groups, builds, and deployments directly via URL parameters, with automatic display of account context badges in each drawer.

• Cross-navigation and context badges in deployment and build views
  Deployment detail screens now show the deployment reason and allow one-click navigation directly to the associated build drawer. Build detail screens have a refreshed title, display up to three recent deployments in a rich table, and provide a convenient link to view all related deployments.

• Unified detail access from table resource names
  In any table, clicking on a resource name now opens its detail view, providing a consistent and intuitive navigation experience across the platform.

• Improved navigation from Activity Log
  Links in the Activity Log now take you directly to the detailed view of the affected resource instead of just the general listing, reducing navigation steps and improving troubleshooting.

• Quick navigation from any resource or user to filtered Activity Log
  Instantly audit activity for a specific resource or user by clicking new options that filter the Activity Log to the relevant context from any detail view or user list.

• Streamlined dependency messaging in Grafana Addon edits
  The warning message about dependency installation now appears only when creating an Addon in Grafana, preventing confusion during parameter edits and improving clarity.

---

🐛 Bug Fixes​

• Correct redirection after resolving notifications
  Fixed an issue where clicking 'Resolve' in notifications did not redirect users as expected. You are now accurately redirected after resolving a notification.

• Improved command autocomplete behavior
  Autocomplete no longer automatically fills commands when you fully clear an entry, ensuring a smoother command entry experience.

• Accurate progress display in Nodepools
  Progress bars for Nodepools now properly cap at 100%, preventing incorrect display of CPU or other metrics above their maximum.

• Reliable field validations in advanced Healthcheck settings
  Required field validations are now correctly enforced in advanced Healthcheck configuration forms, reducing the risk of submitting incomplete or invalid data.

🚀 New Features​

• Install and access Headlamp addon with integrated authentication
  You can now install the Headlamp IDE addon and access it directly from SleakOps using automatic token-based authentication. This feature allows seamless, secure launch of the Headlamp UI from the addons catalog without manual credential entry.

• Loki V2 addon: Next-generation logs with dual deployment
  A new Loki V2 addon is available, powered by Grafana Alloy for improved reliability and compatibility. Both old and new Loki addons can be installed in parallel; the new version becomes the default log datasource in Grafana. A notification guides you for a smooth transition, ensuring persistent log history during migration.

• Dedicated inbox and UI for auto-diagnostic tickets
  Auto-diagnostic tickets are now processed in a dedicated inbox, improving support tracking and clarity. There's a new diagnostics screen accessible from workloads, displaying only diagnostic tickets filtered by resource. The diagnostic flow opens in an expandable drawer, providing a seamless and consistent experience distinct from support tickets.

---

✨ Improvements​

• Enhanced Dockertron experience in project creation
  The Dockertron integration in project creation now lets you generate Dockerfiles via AI directly from the form. UI adjustments improve usability: key actions are clearer, form order is optimized, and visual feedback ensures a fast, guided setup for new projects.

• Project environment selection and improved navigation
  When creating a new environment from the Project form, the recently created environment will now be automatically selected, streamlining the multi-step project setup. Access to quickly create environments is restricted to users with the right permissions, increasing security.

• Cluster upgrade scheduling visibility in the dashboard
  Clusters scheduled for upgrades now clearly display their upgrade status directly on the dashboard, with visual markers and badges. This improves operational planning and reduces the risk of missed or delayed upgrades.

• Visual labeling of deprecated addons
  Addons marked as deprecated now show a clear "Deprecated" tag in both the addon list and details screens, helping users avoid obsolete deployments and plan migrations efficiently.

• Code editor for Custom YAML values in addon configuration
  The Custom YAML input for advanced addon configuration now uses a dedicated code editor with syntax highlighting and multiline support, replacing the basic text field for a more comfortable and reliable editing experience.

• Mandatory fields now visibly marked in all forms
  All mandatory fields across generic forms are now clearly indicated (with an asterisk), making the required information unmistakable and reducing form submission errors.

• Enhanced Dockertron project/process visualization and workflow
  Dockertron now displays a list of detected projects from a GitHub repository, enabling users to select which ones to containerize. The process includes clear confirmation, improved navigation, and notification when containerization completes, closing the feedback loop.

---

🐛 Bug Fixes​

• Clear filters when switching accounts
  Switching accounts now automatically resets project and environment filters, preventing confusing empty screens or inconsistent data when moving between organizations.

• Correct redirect after project creation with Dockertron
  After creating a project using Dockertron, users are now properly redirected to the Dockertron execution screen with the relevant project pre-loaded.

• Resolved resource name truncation issue
  Resource creation now preserves the full names for each resource, preventing unwanted truncation and ensuring all created resources receive their correct, unique identifiers.

• Correct alias state display for deleted web services
  The dashboard now accurately updates the status of deleted web service aliases, reflecting their removal as expected.

• Fix for error 400 when changing environment domains
  Changing the domain in an environment now correctly updates service URLs and triggers the necessary deployments, eliminating previous errors and supporting seamless changes.

• Proper validation when shutting down clusters with dependencies
  Fixed the shutdown process to allow clusters to power off even when dependent resources have deletion protection, resolving issues that blocked cluster operations.

• Reliable cluster start after project or environment state transition errors
  Clusters can now be started reliably even after interrupted resource state transitions, eliminating previous blockers linked to project environment errors.
