Release history

1. docs update Aug 29, 2026 · issue 010

   bolt.new adds a prompt queue supporting up to 20 queued prompts with reordering, pausing, and multi-user collaboration.

   └──▷ HOW TO FIND IT
   Reprioritize a prompt to run immediately when you realize a later task is more urgent, without losing the rest of your queue.
   📍1. Click Pause to stop the queue from advancing. 2. Drag the urgent prompt to the top of the list using the grip icon. 3. Click Resume — Bolt picks up that prompt next.
   Roll back to a known-good checkpoint mid-queue without losing the remaining prompts you planned to run.
   📍1. Click Pause to halt the queue. 2. Open Version history and click the version you want to restore. 3. Once Bolt finishes restoring, click Resume to continue building on that version.
   • ›Adds a prompt queue that lets you send up to 20 prompts while Bolt is building; each prompt starts from the finished result of the previous one, and you can scroll to see beyond the first 5 visible in chat.
   • ›Supports reordering queued prompts by clicking and dragging via the grip icon, letting you reprioritize work without canceling in-flight processing.
   • ›Adds inline editing of queued prompts via the 'Edit message' pencil icon; Bolt pauses that prompt while editing but continues processing others in order.
   • ›Adds per-prompt delete via 'Remove from queue' (trash can icon); users can only delete their own prompts, not collaborators'.
   • ›Adds Pause and Resume queue controls so you can halt automatic advancement — Bolt completes the current prompt before stopping, and triggering Stop on the active prompt also pauses the whole queue.

   • ›In shared projects, each queued prompt displays the sender's avatar so collaborators can distinguish whose prompts are whose; prompts remain in the queue if the sender closes their tab and do not block collaborators' prompts.
   • ›Enables version restores while prompts are queued by pausing the queue, restoring via 'Version history', then resuming to continue building on the restored version.
2. docs update Aug 29, 2026 · issue 010

   bolt.new adds chat tools for UI element selection and file tagging, plus a public OpenAPI spec at /api-reference/openapi.json.

   • ›Adds chat tools and shortcuts supporting UI element selection, file tagging, and prompt queuing while building.
3. launch-20260827-98658987 Aug 27, 2026 · issue 009

   Bolt.new adds prompt queueing: submit prompts mid-build, reorder them, and collaborate on a shared real-time queue.

   • ›Enables prompt queueing in every Bolt.new project: type and submit your next prompt while a build is running and it joins an ordered queue that fires automatically when the current build finishes.
   • ›Each queued prompt carries its own agent selection, so a standard-agent prompt and a max-agent prompt can coexist in the same queue and each runs with the settings it was sent with.
   • ›Collaborative projects share a single real-time queue visible to all teammates, with each contributor able to add prompts and manage their own entries independently.

   Bolt adds voice dictation, a template marketplace, one-click security audits, reusable skills, and Bolt Slides in this multi-week release.

   └──▷ HOW TO FIND IT
   Start dictating a prompt hands-free without touching the keyboard — useful when iterating quickly or accessibility is a priority.
   📍Press and hold CTRL + SHIFT + D, speak your prompt, then release to transcribe it into the chatbox before sending.
   Run a security audit on a project before publishing to catch and auto-fix issues without spending tokens.
   📍In your project, open the Publish menu, then click 'Security audit' to review and remediate code and database issues.
   Enable leaked-password protection on an existing Bolt database to block credentials exposed in known breaches.
   📍In your project, click the database icon › Authentication › Email row › turn on 'Prevent Leaked Passwords'.
   • ›Adds voice dictation in the chatbox via the Dictate (microphone icon) button, CTRL + SHIFT + D hold-to-talk, or right-click-hold; supports multiple languages and mixing speech with typed text in the same prompt.
   • ›Adds a template marketplace where projects can be started from pre-built, working templates for websites, apps, and internal tools using the 'Use template' button (free to start; customization consumes tokens).
   • ›Adds a security audit accessible from the Publish menu that reviews project code and database, auto-remediates most issues, and reports items needing manual action — available on paid plans and does not consume tokens.
   • ›Adds Skills: reusable instruction sets configurable at workspace or project level, importable from GitHub or a file, with curated skills (SEO/GEO, Web Design Guidelines, Writing Guidelines) that can be toggled per project.
   • ›Adds Bolt Slides, a new project type started by clicking 'Slides' below the chatbox on the homepage; decks include presenter mode, annotations, and interactive elements (3D models, before-and-after sliders, clickable maps, collaborative idea boards), publishable to a live URL.

   • ›Publishes the Bolt Slides component library and SKILL.md skill file as open source at github.com/stackblitz/bolt-slides for use with coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex.
   • ›Adds Prevent Leaked Passwords setting in database Authentication settings (Email row) — turned on by default for new databases — which checks new or changed passwords against known breach lists.
   • ›Adds a 'Restart database' option in the database's Advanced settings to recover unresponsive, timed-out, or connection-failed databases.
   • ›Adds guided questions to the 'Enhance prompt' flow in the chatbox, collecting context about the project before generating the enhanced prompt.
   • ›Adds a direct 'Export to Bolt' button in Google Stitch that attaches page screenshots and HTML and pre-populates a prompt in Bolt.
   • ›Moves version history to the top navigation (clock icon) in projects, replacing the previous title-menu location.
   • ›Adds a referral program paying 15% of referred subscriber revenue (up to $50 per referral); referral link accessible via 'Earn $50' in the sidebar, with payouts configured on the Rewards tab.
   • ›Adds Safari support for building in Bolt (previously Chrome and Chromium-based only); Code View files are read-only in Safari and previews run as hosted previews rather than in-browser.
   • ›Consolidates all database settings (Authentication, File Storage, Logs, Secrets, Server Functions, Tables, User Management) under a single Database Settings view accessible from the database icon at the top of a project.
   • ›Switches agent selection from individual model options to two named agents — Standard (everyday building) and Max (complex/deep reasoning) — with Bolt handling underlying model selection automatically.
   • ›Databases in published (live) projects are no longer automatically paused for inactivity; automatic pausing now applies only to unpublished projects with low activity for six or more days.
   └──▷ BREAKING ON UPGRADE
