Hatch

Full release history, newest first.

  1. v0.10.3

    Release notes backfill

    • Filled gaps in the release notes feed (0.2.1–0.2.3) and aligned the Dependabot+GitFlow entry with v0.10.2

  2. v0.10.2

    Dependabot + GitFlow

    • Dependabot update PRs pass the GitFlow branch-name check and no longer mint version tags on merge

  3. v0.10.0

    Free tier foundations

    • Every Hatch account now has an explicit Free plan record (Pro grants via staff override when needed)
    • Platform staff and admin roles are stored in the database (env allowlist still bootstraps admins)
    • Plan entitlements define Free and Pro caps for projects, docs, storage, members, Advanced Settings, and MCP
    • Attachment storage is tracked against projects and doc spaces you own (for Free plan caps)
    • Free plan is limited to one project and one doc space — creating another asks you to upgrade
    • Free projects stay solo — inviting collaborators requires Pro
    • Free plan storage is capped at 100 MB across owned projects and doc spaces
    • Templates, workflows, and test-suite blocking stay Pro-only on Free (milestones remain available)
    • Settings shows your Free or Pro plan usage, and Free-limit errors share one upgrade banner
    • MCP tokens and request rates follow your plan (Free: 1 token / 60 RPM / 90-day TTL; Pro: 5 / 300 / 1 year)

  4. v0.8.0

    Board views

    • List board view is removed — boards use Kanban and Table only (existing list prefs switch to Kanban)
    • When the board is grouped by epics, each epic row has a View epic link
    • Live board update streams tear down cleanly on disconnect
    • Quieted Next.js MaxListenersExceededWarning noise in local dev (framework close-listener budget)
    • Next.js upgraded to 16.3.4

  5. v0.6.0

    Google Analytics

    • Google Analytics (gtag) is available via NEXT_PUBLIC_GA_MEASUREMENT_ID so Hatch usage can be measured

  6. v0.4.0

    Live board updates

    • Board and epics views update instantly when tickets change — no more 15-second polling
    • Changes from MCP, other tabs, and other users show up live in production

  7. v0.3.0

    Cross-surface search

    • Search tickets, epics, and projects from the header (typeahead + full results page)
    • MCP search tool ranks key matches above title and description, including done items across projects
    • New projects get a unique ticket key prefix (preferring short acronyms like APS)
    • AlienDev's Postal Service tickets rekeyed from ALIENDEV-* to APS-*
    • New epic from the epics list opens create on the board again
    • Kanban drag-and-drop can reorder cards; sorting switches to Manual and keeps that order
    • Accessibility: clearer landmarks and control names, larger sort touch targets, stronger contrast, and status field labels
    • robots.txt and noindex/nofollow meta tags block search engines and AI crawlers from indexing Hatch

  8. v0.2.3

    GitFlow

    • main is protected with squash-only merges, signed commits, and automatic SemVer tags from branch type

  9. v0.2.2

    MCP pagination and project URLs

    • Large ticket_list, epic_tickets_list, and doc_page_tree (flat) results are now paginated so the MCP can page through big boards, epics, and doc spaces
    • Board lives at /projects; project management at /projects/manage; ticket links use /projects/tickets/[id]

  10. v0.2.1

    Release notes page

    • In-app release notes at /release-notes, fed from this JSON file
    • Footer link to release notes
    • robots.txt and X-Robots-Tag headers to discourage crawlers and LLM indexing

  11. v0.2

    Docs

    • Standalone doc spaces, separate from project boards
    • Nested pages within a space, with drag-to-reorder
    • MCP tools for reading and writing docs programmatically
    • Share actions for inviting members to a doc space

  12. v0.1

    Release notes feed

    • Introduced this release notes feed at /release-notes.json
    • Every AlienDev product will publish updates in this same format
