Continue Newsletter - Winter Launch Week 2025
Why are you manually bridging the gap between your tools? Continue updates turn your fragmented toolchain—Slack, Sentry, GitHub, and more—into a self-healing system.
Last week, we shared five major upgrades built around the question: Why are you doing the integration work your tools should do for you?. While the new UI is beautiful, the real story is how these updates turn your fragmented toolchain—Slack, Sentry, GitHub, and more—into a self-healing system.
Here are three workflows you can run right now using the new features:
1. The "Drive-By" Refactor
Powered by the new Slack & GitHub Integrations
- The Workflow: Mention
@Continuein a Slack thread with a task like "Fix the auth timeout in api/users.ts". - The Magic: The agent reads the thread context, generates the code changes, and opens a GitHub PR for you.
- Why it matters: It keeps you in the conversation while the agent handles the implementation.
Don’t break your flow to open a ticket or switch contexts just to log a bug.
2. The "Auto-Fix" Loop
Powered by new DevTool Integrations & Workflows
- The Workflow: Connect Sentry, Snyk, PostHog, Netlify and more to Mission Control.
- The Magic: When a new vulnerability or error is detected, a Workflow triggers an agent to analyze the stack trace, generate a fix, and open a PR.
- Why it matters: You move from "alert fatigue" to "reviewing fixes."
Don’t break your flow to open a ticket or switch contexts just to log a bug.
3. The "Monday Morning" Briefing
Powered by Tasks and Workflows
- The Workflow: Set up a Workflow using a Cron schedule or Webhook
- The Magic: Your agent wakes up, scans your repo history, and drafts a weekly changelog or runs a security audit without you lifting a finger.
Automate the repetitive chores that eat up your engineering time.
The Engine Behind It All
To make these workflows possible, we overhauled the entire platform. Here is the rest of what’s new:
- Mission Control Redesign: We rebuilt Continue as a unified command center where you can manage your Agents, view your Inbox, share with your team, and configure every aspect of your automation.
- New Metrics Dashboard: Trust is earned. You can now track exactly how your agents are performing, including success rates, PR activity, and intervention trends over time.
