Project Health, What's Next and Changelogs
Every project's dashboard has Project Health, which checks your open work for blocked tasks, stalled work, urgent bugs and whether the active release is on pace for its target date. Release pace compares how many tasks a week the release still needs with how many you closed over the last two weeks. Each check is a segment of the bar and a row below it, and a failing row names the task behind it so you can open it straight away.
The tag at the top sums it up as Healthy, At risk, Stagnant or Unhealthy, and hovering it lists every reason. Project Health follows fixed rules and uses no AI credits. Beside it, What's Next ranks up to five open tasks by priority, the active release, due dates and what users have asked for, with work assigned to you and work already in progress ranked higher.
Expand a row to see why it's there, press Start to move it to In Progress, or dismiss it for yourself. At most one piece of advice sits above the list, such as a release that's ready to ship or past its target date, and some offer Ask Frostbyte, which has the Agent look first and change nothing until you say. A connected coding agent gets the same list from the whats_next tool.
Set your product's stage and focus
The Product page is a four-line brief you edit in place, covering what you're building, who it's for, the problem it fixes and why your approach wins. Set up with Agent asks a few quick questions and writes it for you. Everyone on the project can read it, and so can the Frostbyte Agent and any agent you connect, before they plan or suggest work.
Pick a stage from Idea, MVP, Live and Growth, and the line under it says what that stage is about. It describes where you're aiming now, so nothing locks and nothing changes it for you. Current Focus is the one goal you're working towards now, such as "Get half of new signups to finish onboarding", and it shows on the dashboard.
The stage shapes the advice you get. At MVP, work already in progress in the active release ranks higher in What's Next, and a release much bigger than you usually ship gets flagged. At Live, bugs and requested work rise. If what you're doing doesn't match the stage, such as shipping releases while set to Idea, the owner gets a hint to move it.
Changelog posts with a headline and cover
Release notes are posts on your Feedback Portal's changelog. Each one has a headline, an optional cover image, images inside the notes, and your name as the author. A post's own page lists everything in the release, with a Built from your feedback card showing the requests and votes behind it.
Auto generate drafts the headline and notes from the release's Done tasks and the portal requests linked to them. The changelog is on every plan. Covers and images need Indie, and a release can hold up to 10.
The rest of the portal has a new look too, with one composer, a feed beside a sidebar, and request pages that show where each request is up to, such as Planned or Shipped. While the public roadmap is on, a task drafted from a public request starts ticked to appear on it. Untick it in the draft to keep it off.
