What shipped to production (Jul 4 → Jul 17)

Release: v5.17.0

Operator

• Brev Agent chat is now Operator — rebranded, redesigned, and on for everyone
• Live goal, person, and team cards right in chat — act on them without leaving the conversation
• Answers and artifact builds are dramatically faster, with previews that stream in as they build
• Connect GitHub, Linear, and PostHog, and put Operator on a schedule — including a ready-made weekly recap

Meetings

• Control the recording bot from meeting chat with /brev commands
• Meeting citations now deep-link to the exact moment in the recording

Reporting & dashboards

• Artifacts home is now on for everyone — redesigned gallery, live thumbnails, per-person sharing, and rich link previews in Slack and social
• HTML deliverables now render as artifact tiles with an expandable full view
• Comments are now on for everyone — leave feedback right on the work

Goals & check-ins

• Goals navigation is now consolidated in the sidebar for everyone
• Advanced goal view filters — stack and combine filters to slice goals your way (turn on in org settings)

Integrations

• Microsoft Teams — DM the Brev bot for real agent answers, interactive check-in cards, and quick actions
• Integration owners now get an alert when a connected tool's access is revoked, so broken connections get flagged instead of failing silently

Behind a flag — select orgs only

• Company Brain — a daily, auto-generated company knowledge page built from your meetings, Slack, and goals, with citations back to the source
• Smart Nudges — check-in nudges that arrive within the hour when a goal goes at-risk, capped per channel so they don't become noise
• Home — a "focus for today" page that pulls your nudges into one feed
• Tile clipboard — copy tiles from one artifact into another

Fixes

• Rich-text lists keep their formatting,
• Collaborator cursors behave during shared editing
