Linear — October 8, 2026 release roundup | made with ngram

About the video

This video was created by ngram to summarize Linear's October 8 release notes in a quick, scannable format using HTML/CSS motion graphics. It opens by framing the shared benefit of the update: clearer visibility into code changes and AI usage. The video then walks through stacked pull requests now appearing in Linear Diffs, showing review, CI, and merge status for every PR in a stack so reviewers and leads can see what's ready at a glance, with a note to open Reviews from the sidebar. Next it covers real-time diffs that update during coding sessions, including uncommitted changes, letting engineers catch wrong turns early and steer the agent by opening the coding session on a delegated issue. The video closes on a new usage explorer for billing admins and owners, breaking down AI credit spend by team, feature, user, or loop, alongside spend limits to keep usage in bounds, both found in Settings under Usage and Limits. It ends by pointing viewers to the full October 8 release notes to explore the updates directly in Linear. Structured across five scenes—opening, stacked pull requests, real-time diffs, AI credit usage and spend limits, and a close—the video uses captioned narration synced to each feature in a 16:9 format suited for a changelog or product update rollout.
