Summary

The dev environment "Get set up" panel used to be a static list of CLI commands that only disappeared once your tasks registered, so nothing ever changed after you ran init and people assumed it was stuck. It now tracks real progress: trigger init records the project as initialized, so step 1 checks off, and the panel updates live as the dev server connects and your tasks register.

It also adds a prominent "Copy AI agent prompt" button, presented as a clear alternative ("or") to the manual CLI steps, that copies a ready-to-paste setup prompt pre-filled with your project reference for Claude Code, Cursor, or any coding agent.

Notes

  • Adds a Project.initializedAt column (migration 20260811065646_add_project_initialized_at); the CLI init command calls a new project-scoped POST /api/v1/projects/:ref/init best-effort at the end of setup.
  • The init scaffold now imports from @trigger.dev/sdk instead of the deprecated /v3 subpath.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The change adds project initialization tracking with a nullable database timestamp and an authenticated initialization API. The CLI marks projects initialized after scaffolding and updates generated SDK imports. The web application loads initialization state, receives initialization events through SSE, and shows progress based on project and development-server state. The onboarding UI also adds a copyable AI-agent setup prompt.

The dev environment "Get set up" panel now reflects actual progress instead of static instructions. Running trigger init records the project as initialized (via a new project-scoped endpoint the CLI calls), so step 1 ticks off, and the panel updates live as the dev server connects and tasks register. Adds a "Copy AI agent prompt" button that copies a ready-to-paste setup prompt pre-filled with the project reference, and updates the init scaffold to import from @trigger.dev/sdk instead of the deprecated /v3 subpath.

## Summary
4 new features, 24 improvements, 10 bug fixes.

## Highlights

- Allow `trigger deploy` to authenticate with an environment API key
from `TRIGGER_ACCESS_TOKEN`.
([#4561](#4561))

## Improvements
- Chat in the browser now reconnects when the connection drops mid-turn,
instead of leaving the reply stuck as if it were still generating.
Reports can be fetched as structured data with the `json` format, and
the shortest report period is now one minute (`1m`, `30m`, `1h`, `7d`).
The `mint-token` command's help is clearer too: a token minted without
`--cap` is read-only, and `--ttl` shows the correct maximum lifetime of
7 days.
([#4418](#4418))
- The dev environment onboarding now tracks real progress. After you run
`init`, the setup checklist marks your project as initialized, and it
updates live as your dev server connects and your tasks register. The
blank state also adds a "Copy AI agent prompt" button that copies a
ready-to-paste setup prompt (pre-filled with your project reference) for
Claude Code, Cursor, or any coding agent.
([#4563](#4563))
  
The `init` scaffold now imports from `@trigger.dev/sdk` instead of the
deprecated `@trigger.dev/sdk/v3` subpath.
- Deployed images now ship dependencies and bundled task code as
separate layers. Repeat deploys with unchanged dependencies typically
push and pull far less data, making deploys and worker image pulls
faster.
([#4551](#4551))
- The current-worker API now reports each task's queue, so you can see
which tasks write to a given queue.
([#4525](#4525))
- Watch-mode chat streams now survive quiet windows and page reloads,
and a reply cut off by a lost connection shows an error instead of
appearing finished. Aborting a resumed subscription only closes your
local stream — call `stopGeneration(chatId)` or pass `stopOnAbort: true`
to stop the run. Also fixed a race where quickly restarting a stream
could break stop and reconnect, and stopping a chat now hands it back to
your other tabs instead of leaving them read-only.
([#4516](#4516))

## Server changes

These changes affect the self-hosted Docker image and Trigger.dev Cloud:

- The dashboard agent now has a monthly message allowance and plan-based
limits on watches. Queries stay read-only with clearer errors when busy,
and messages with unusual characters no longer fail to send.
([#4516](#4516))
- Meet the dashboard agent: a chat in every environment that answers
questions about your runs, queues, errors and health with real data and
links, replacing Ask AI everywhere it used to appear. Investigate a
failed run, an error, a backed-up queue or a run that hasn't started to
get a worked-through answer — what happened, why, and how to fix it,
with every claim linked to the runs, errors and deploys behind it. It
reads your data read-only, works on preview and dev branches with that
branch's own data, and reads the same everywhere — dashboard, terminal,
editor. A very long chat keeps working: the agent summarises the earlier
part and carries on.
  
**Watch…** on a run, queue, error or the health report tells you when
things change: a run finishes, a queue clears or grows past a number you
pick, an error comes back, an environment recovers. The answer arrives
in the chat and, if you want, by email, Slack or webhook — and the agent
can look into bad news on its own. A watch reaches you on any browser
you sign in from, without opening the chat first.
  
A sample of conversations is scored automatically so the agent keeps
getting better; only the score and a one-line summary are kept, never
your messages, data or code, and we can switch it off for your
organization on request. Ask the agent instead of the Docs buttons in
page headers — they stay there when the agent isn't available to you.
Separately, a queue's wait times, peak depth, throughput and throttling
can now be read from the API.
([#4418](#4418))
- Add backend support for delaying cron schedules within a specified
window with a minimum of 60 seconds.
([#4566](#4566))
- Reduced recurring background database load from the billing-limit
recovery check, so paused environments are reconciled with less
overhead.
([#4590](#4590))
- Validating a schedule when deploying or updating a schedule now does
less work on projects with many preview branches, so those operations
stay fast as branches accumulate.
([#4598](#4598))
- Project pages now load faster for projects with a large number of
preview branches, by no longer loading archived branch environments that
aren't shown.
([#4595](#4595))
- Database queries that filter on a list of values now reuse cached
query plans more consistently, instead of forcing the database to
re-plan whenever the list length changes.
([#4480](#4480))
- Routine cleanup of old dashboard agent data now runs on its own
schedule.
([#4599](#4599))
- Database connection metrics are now reported for every configured
database connection instead of only the primary one, and stay accurate
regardless of connection type.
([#4541](#4541))
- Deployment-related API endpoints now draw from their own generous rate
limit budget, configurable via the `DEPLOYMENT_RATE_LIMIT_*` environment
variables, so runtime API traffic no longer competes with deployments
for the same per-environment budget.
([#4565](#4565))
- Deleting or editing a secret environment variable is now fast and no
longer slows down as a project accumulates variables.
([#4555](#4555))
- Speed up personal access token lookups by indexing them on their owner
([#4588](#4588))
- Switching project or organization in the sidebar now keeps you on the
same page instead of sending you back to Tasks. Pages for a specific
run, deploy or other single item open the matching list instead.
([#4585](#4585))
- Reduced database load when loading the dashboard by removing an unused
organization member count that was being calculated on every page
navigation.
([#4587](#4587))
- The environment variables page now loads a page at a time, keeping it
fast for projects with a large number of variables. Search matches
variable names across every page.
([#4597](#4597))
- Groundwork for an alternative database connection driver, gated behind
configuration and disabled by default, so there is no change to default
behavior.
([#4539](#4539))
- Deleting an alert channel is now fast and no longer slows down as a
project builds up alert history.
([#4554](#4554))
- Reduced internal overhead on the API under high load.
([#4532](#4532))
- Out-of-date upgrade prompts no longer appear in the dashboard: the
"V4" badges and the notices saying preview branches and the queues table
need V4 have been removed. The side menu still warns you when a project
is on v3, with updated wording and a link to the v4 upgrade guide.
([#4589](#4589))
- Make background worker registration cheaper for projects with many
scheduled tasks by scoping declarative schedule reconciliation to the
current environment and dropping redundant schedule lookups.
([#4577](#4577))
- Speed up setting and importing environment variables for projects with
many variables.
([#4579](#4579))
- Loading the deployments list is now faster, especially when filtering
by deployment status on projects with many deployments.
([#4591](#4591))
- Fixed the billing limits page timing out for organizations with many
preview branches, especially while a spend limit was being enforced. The
page now loads quickly, so you can raise or resolve your limit without
delay. ([#4594](#4594))
- Fix the Concurrency page showing the plan's default concurrency for
the dev environment instead of the environment's actual limit.
([#4596](#4596))
- Creating an organization sometimes left you back on the creation form
even though the organization had already been created, so clicking
Create again made a duplicate. Creating an organization now completes
and takes you to your new organization.
([#4530](#4530))
- Ensure creating a project completes instead of returning to its
creation form after a navigation error.
([#4584](#4584))
- Renaming a project now keeps you on the project settings page and
tells you what happened, instead of silently moving you to the tasks
page or clearing the form with no explanation.
([#4601](#4601))
- Fixed support threads showing no account details for some customers,
so the team can see your plan, organizations and projects when you get
in touch.
([#4575](#4575))
- In the light theme, the Format, Clear and Copy buttons on the query
editor no longer blend into the query text behind them.
([#4592](#4592))
- The health report now says start latency is "unknown" when there is no
data for it, instead of showing a healthy-looking 0ms
([#4544](#4544))
- Realtime streams written inside a chat session run now use the same
backend as the session itself, and runs are no longer created against a
backend that cannot serve them.
([#4564](#4564))
- The grouped "watch updates" notification now shows the total number of
results waiting, instead of only the most recent batch's count.
([#4525](#4525))
