AMA for Repos with Summaries DisabledMacroscope’s Slackbot can answer questions about any repository you’ve linked to Macroscope, even if PR summaries are disabled. Based on customer feedback, we changed the PR summary setting so that it only controls whether generated summaries are posted to GitHub. This allows your Slack users to @ mention Macroscope with questions about PRs in repos where the PR summary posting feature is disabled.Shorter Code Review CommentsWe’ve adjusted Macroscope code review comments to be more succinct.

Path-Based Filters for Slack SubscriptionsWith path-based filters, you can limit code activity subscriptions to specific parts of a repository. Any activity that modifies files matching the specified path filter(s) will trigger a Slack notification in the subscribed Slack channel. To create a code activity subscription that is filtered by file path, add the
Custom Code Review Rules [beta]We’re introducing the ability for Macroscope to run an independent code review focused on your team’s best practices, based on custom rules you define. In 
--paths= flag to the end of a /macroscope subscription command, and specify which file path(s) you want to filter by. Learn more about path-based filters in our help docs.Filtered Issues in Code ReviewIf you’ve been curious which comments Macroscope considered leaving on your pull request but didn’t, you can now see them. By default, these lower-signal comments are hidden to keep reviews focused. However, you can expand the “Filtered Issues” section at the bottom of the PR description to see which comments were excluded, by file, and expand each file to view the specific comment(s) identified.
macroscope.md files throughout your codebase, you can define your team’s best practices (i.e. anything that’s idiomatic of how you want code to be written). During reviews, Macroscope will run a separate CheckRun that flags violations and leaves inline comments that reference the relevant rule. Learn more about code review rules in our help docs.This feature is currently in beta. If you would like to use this feature, contact support@macroscope.com.

AI Web Research in Code ReviewCode review now has web research capabilities, meaning that Macroscope can search the web for external knowledge sources. When reviewing your code, Macroscope uses Parallel’s search API to find the latest documentation, so that code reviews take into account every library and package you use.
Ticket Creation in SlackYou can now ask the Macroscope Slackbot to create Jira and Linear tickets. Ask @Macroscope to create a ticket and Macroscope will use the context provided to generate a ticket on your behalf. To enable this, you will need to re-authorize your Jira / Linear integrations in Settings → Connections. Learn more about our Jira / Linear integrations here.
Displaying Teammate NamesThe web app now shows contributors’ GitHub display names (instead of their GitHub usernames) across commits, contributors, and team views, making it easier to identify team members.

Contributor Metrics in AMAMacroscope AMA now has access to Contributor Productivity Metrics (e.g. # commits, # PR, coding time), so you can ask questions like “@Macroscope how many PRs were opened in the last 2 days?”. Macroscope’s agent can retrieve any metrics that are visible on the Macroscope website, across any time range.Linear Integration v2Macroscope is now using Linear’s new “Agents” framework. Soon, Macroscope will be able to take actions on behalf of users in Linear. Existing customers will need to unlink and re-link their Linear application in their Macroscope settings in order to authorize fresh permissions.Jira Integration v2We are building a deeper Jira integration in Macroscope AMA. Soon, Macroscope will be able to create Jira issues and answer questions about your Jira projects and issues.Squash Merge SummariesThe Commits page now displays summaries for squash merges. Users can hover over a branch’s release details to view the summary, which shows the number of commits squashed and the date range covered.

Exportable Contributor Stats across Custom Time RangesThe Contributors page shows engineering productivity metrics grouped by individual contributors or by GitHub Team. This page now includes total opened PRs, in addition to Commits and Coding Time. Metrics can be filtered across any custom date range and exported as a CSV.
Smarter, Faster “PR Assistant”We made our PR bot smarter and faster by ensuring it retains all the context of the code research it collected while reviewing your code. This means that when you’re asking clarifying questions or debating implementation details within a Pull Request review comment, Macroscope will have better informed responses and lower latency.Better Code ReviewWe have made several improvements to code review that increase bug detection rate while reducing false positives.Slack MessagesWe have improved the formatting of code activity updates in Slack so that messages are easier to scan and understand.

We’re Live!As of September 17, we’re officially out of private beta.Coding Time EstimatesImproved our Coding Time estimate algorithm to provide more accurate estimations based on the complexity of code changes.Code Review ImprovementsOptimized our code review pipeline to reduce the likelihood of false positives. In our testing, this results in ~30% lower comment volume without a meaningful impact to overall bug detection rate.Deployment Tracking for Commits
Commits now display a “Released to” indicator with a rocket icon and linked branch tag when released to a specific branch, making it easier to track deployment status.Slackbot ResilienceImproved reliability and resilience of responses from Macroscope’s Slackbot. Sometimes, when users asked code research questions, the Slackbot would struggle to respond when the response included emojis due to Slack API compatibility issues. Now, the Slackbot responds without failure.Mobile ViewingBetter viewing on tablets and larger mobile devices, plus improved chart displays.Resynchronize with GitHubIn the rare event your repositories or related data in Macroscope ever fall out of sync with GitHub, you can click the “Resynchronize Now” button in Settings → Support to manually trigger a resynchronization.
