Highlight Featured this release ## The chat agent can read your test inbox Chat and PR reviews can look at the emails and SMS a test received, so email failures get a real answer. Three new chat tools let the agent search the project inbox, open a specific email – readable body, every link with its anchor text, and attachment info – and list SMS messages. Scoped to a test, they show which messages went to that test's addresses and whether one arrived after the test had already moved on. For [AI QA testing](https://qa.tech/) of sign-up and login flows, the PR review bot uses the same tools to tell a slow delivery or a test-side misread apart from a real app bug when an email test fails.

Update 02 of 03 ## PR triage applies to API and GitHub Action reviews Reviews started through the API or the GitHub Action follow your PR Triage setting, with an optional per-review override. Change reviews started with `POST /v1/chat/change-review` or the GitHub Action now follow your repository's PR Triage toggle and prompt, the same as mentions and "Start review". A skipped review shows up as a skipped `QA.tech / PR Review` check with a short summary. To override a single review, send an optional `triage` object: `triage.enabled` (`false` to never skip, `true` to allow a skip even when the toggle is off) and `triage.prompt` (up to 4,000 characters) to replace the triage prompt for that review only.

Update 03 of 03 ## Run without the agent cache from the API and MCP Runs and reruns started from the API or MCP accept a flag that skips Agent Cache for every test in the run. Pass `"skipAgentCache": true` to `POST /v1/run` or `POST /v1/run/{shortId}` (rerun), or to the `start_run_with_test_cases`, `start_run_with_test_plan` and `rerun_run` MCP tools, to run every test in that run without Agent Cache. It's a quick way to check whether a flaky test is a cache problem, without unticking the setting test by test. Omitting it or sending `false` keeps each test's own setting.
