Here's what we shipped to customers during the week of April 27, 2026: 6 product areas across the [Anyshift Product Updates](/blog/series/anyshift-product-updates) series. The theme was getting [Annie](/product) out of the web app and into the surfaces your team already lives in, including terminals, IDEs, and Slack channels.

## Run Annie from anywhere

### CLI / TUI updates

Our [CLI and TUI](https://docs.anyshift.io/pages/product/integration/cli) now mirrors the report and feedback flows that already existed in the web app:

- Kick off RCAs directly from the terminal.
- Generate and save **custom report definitions**, including arbitrary cron schedules.
- Rate Annie's answers with thumbs-up / thumbs-down feedback so the model improves over time.

### Remote MCP updates

The [remote MCP](https://docs.anyshift.io/pages/product/integration/remote_mcp) now exposes 4 new primitives, so any IDE or agent that speaks MCP (Claude, Codex, Cursor, custom agents) can:

- Save, schedule, cancel, and soft-delete custom report definitions.
- Run proactive reports and surface the results inline.
- Send feedback on chats, RCAs, and individual hypotheses.

### One-click copy across the app

Every report, message, RCA, and hypothesis Annie produces is now copy-as-markdown ready, so you can paste a clean version into a ticket, a doc, or a Slack thread without reformatting.

## New: Slack reports

You can now route any Annie report straight to a Slack channel, [on demand or on a schedule](/integrations/slack). Combined with Annie Automation, this is what unlocks weekly digests, recurring on-call summaries, and project-scoped status updates with zero glue code.

## Annie Automation, refined

[Annie Automation](https://docs.anyshift.io/pages/product/customization/instructions), the rules engine that decides what Annie does in response to specific events, got a UX pass:

- A single rule can now target **multiple sources and multiple channels**, so you don't fan out the same logic across five copies.
- New scope tabs and a clearer default-behavior card make it obvious whether Annie auto-replies in a channel or only when she's tagged.
- New `trigger_report` and `Generate a custom report` actions tie automation directly to the new report tooling.

## Tighter AWS onboarding

The [AWS integration guide](/integrations/aws) now ships a tighter, least-privilege IAM policy you can paste as-is. Fewer permissions, faster InfoSec review. Optional Terraform-state access is documented as a separate opt-in step for teams that want Annie to reason over `.tfstate`. Pairs well with the recent [Anyshift on AWS Marketplace](/blog/anyshift-now-available-on-aws-marketplace) listing for teams that want to procure through their AWS account.

## Prometheus custom headers

[Prometheus integrations](/integrations/prometheus) now accept arbitrary custom HTTP headers, which is useful for environments behind auth proxies, header-based tenant routing, or any setup where a bearer token alone isn't enough. The headers are stored encrypted on the credential and forwarded all the way through to the Prometheus MCP server when Annie queries metrics.
