Here's what shipped to customers during the week of October 12, 2026: 3 product areas, part of the Anyshift Product Updates series.

Replies in Slack threads without a tag

Once Annie is part of a Slack thread, follow-ups meant for her no longer need another @Annie. For each new message from a person in that thread, Annie reads the recent conversation and decides whether it is addressed to her. A follow-up question or a request gets a reply. Teammates talking to each other, acknowledgements like "ok" or "on it", and anything ambiguous get silence.

Bot messages, threads Annie hasn't joined, and threads where someone pressed Stop on her latest answer still need a tag. The behavior is controlled by the Reply in threads without being tagged switch on the Annie Automation default behavior card, on by default. Details are in replies in threads without a tag and the Slack integration guide.

Annie can update herself in annie-cli v0.9.14

annie update now updates the CLI for you. On a Homebrew install it runs the upgrade directly. For a website download it prints the exact commands for your OS, architecture, and binary location, so you can copy and run them.

The release adds 2 update tools to the CLI:

annie update
annie update check --output json

Stable releases also tell you when a newer version is available, in the TUI status bar and at most once every 24 hours after a command. Turn the reminder off with annie config set update_check false. See updating annie-cli, or get the latest build from the Annie CLI install page.

Read-only repositories and one-click write mode for GitHub

If your organization uses the Anyshift Agentic App for Propose Fix, repositories assigned earlier through the read-only app used to stay read-only with no hint in the UI. Repository Assignment now marks them with a Read-only badge, and Enable write mode switches every eligible repository to the Agentic App in one click, with no need to unassign and reassign each one.

When the Agentic App can't see a repository yet, the notice links straight to that GitHub account's app access settings so you can add it. Setup is in the GitHub integration guide.

That's the week. Try it in the Anyshift product, see how on-call investigations work, and tell us what it unlocks for your team at app.anyshift.io. Last week's updates are in What shipped, week of October 5.
