v26.3.0: Pull Requests, Without Leaving Braid

Braid Team
Braid Team

Reviewing pull requests no longer means jumping to your browser. This release brings a full GitHub Tasks panel right into Braid: browse PRs and issues across all your repos, read the conversation, scan the checks, page through changed files with inline diffs, and approve or request changes without ever leaving the app.

Added

  • A GitHub Tasks panel - Browse, filter, and manage pull requests and issues from all your repositories in one place. A multi-repo picker lets you pull tasks from several projects into a single view.
  • Full PR detail view - Open any PR to see everything that matters: a tabbed sidebar with reviewers, labels, assignees, and metadata, alongside its checks, changed files, and the full conversation.
  • Changed files, with diffs - Page through a PR's changed files in a tree, read inline unified diffs, and leave file-level comments without switching tabs.
  • The whole conversation - Threaded comments and review discussions render with GitHub-flavored markdown, syntax highlighting, task lists, and emoji reactions.
  • Review right from Braid - Approve, request changes, or leave a comment on a PR straight from the detail view.
  • Start a worktree from a PR - Spin up a fresh worktree pre-filled from a pull request, so going from "reviewing" to "working on it" is a single step.

Improved

  • PR clicks stay in the app - Clicking a PR from the checks list or the merge bar now opens the in-app Tasks panel with back-navigation, instead of launching your browser.

Other

  • Refactored the GitHub integration into a modular service with dedicated pieces for operations, reviews, status checks, and tasks, laying the groundwork for richer PR and issue features ahead.
