The wait docs describe the 5 second compute-billing threshold as if it
were also the suspension threshold. It isn't, and the gap is confusing
when you're sizing a poll interval:
- **Compute** stops being charged for any wait longer than 5 seconds.
- **Concurrency** is only released once the machine has been snapshotted
and shut down. For `wait.for` and `wait.until` that happens 60 seconds
into the wait — a shorter wait stays `EXECUTING` and holds its
concurrency slot for the whole wait, even though the compute is free.
So `await wait.for({ seconds: 30 })` in a polling loop never releases
its slot, which looks like a bug if the docs told you waits over 5
seconds checkpoint.
## Changes
**`docs/snippets/paused-execution-free.mdx`** — rendered on `/wait`,
`/wait-for` and `/wait-until`. Drops "we checkpoint and" from the
billing sentence so it's purely about compute, then adds one paragraph
for the concurrency half.
**`docs/queue-concurrency.mdx`** — the "Waits and concurrency" section
states flatly that waiting runs don't consume slots. Adds a short
subsection for the time-based exception.
**`docs/how-to-reduce-your-spend.mdx`** — "Waits longer than 5 seconds
automatically checkpoint your task, meaning you don't pay for compute" →
the compute claim only. Code comments follow, plus a pointer that
waiting doesn't always free concurrency.
**`docs/how-it-works.mdx`** — the Checkpoint-Resume walkthrough used
`wait.for({ seconds: 30 })` as *the* example of a wait that suspends.
Bumped to 5 minutes and noted the sub-60s exception.
No behaviour change — docs only.
## Summary
Adds `node-24` and `node-26` as first-class `runtime` options in
`trigger.config.ts`. Previously these Node versions were only reachable
via the `experimental-node-24` / `experimental-node-26` names.
Those experimental names are now **deprecated aliases**: they still
resolve to `node-24` / `node-26` for backwards compatibility, but
loading a config that uses them prints a deprecation warning pointing at
the new name.
```ts
export default defineConfig({
runtime: "node-24",
project: "<your-project-ref>",
});
```
## Details
- `ConfigRuntime` (the public config schema) now accepts `node-24` and
`node-26` directly; the internal `BuildRuntime` already supported them,
so base images and the deploy path are unchanged.
- `resolveBuildRuntime` passes the new names straight through and keeps
mapping the experimental aliases to their replacements.
- Renamed the runtime helper from `isExperimentalConfigRuntime` to
`isDeprecatedConfigRuntime` and added `deprecatedRuntimeReplacement` so
the CLI can name the replacement in its warning.
- Docs snippet updated to list the new versions and flag the deprecated
names.
The dashboard was redesigned and two pages moved, but the docs still
described the old sidebar:
- **Schedules** no longer has its own sidebar page — schedules are
managed from the **Tasks** page (open a scheduled task to create / view
/ edit / enable-disable / delete them).
- The standalone list-based **Test** page is deprecated — you test a
task from its own **Test** button now.
## Changes
- `tasks/scheduled.mdx`: rewrote the "attaching schedules" and "testing
schedules" sections for the Tasks-based flow, added a "managing
schedules in the dashboard" section, and added explicit callouts noting
both pages moved (so readers — and search — aren't pointed at a page
that no longer exists). Re-shot the four schedule screenshots and fixed
a mislabeled alt text.
- `run-tests.mdx`, `snippets/step-run-test.mdx`,
`guides/examples/sentry-error-tracking.mdx`: replaced "select the Test
page in the sidebar" with the task-first flow plus a callout, and
refreshed `test-dashboard.png`.
TRI-11939
Removes the release-candidate framing from the docs for the 4.5 GA: the
`@rc` install caveats on the `skills` CLI command, and the AI Agents and
Prompts release-candidate banner (a shared snippet used across the
ai-chat and prompts pages) plus the `>=4.5.0-rc.0` compatibility pin in
the AI reference.
A batch of technical-SEO fixes across the docs, all reader-facing
(titles, links, redirects):
- Canonicalize the duplicate CLI command pages: the bare `/cli-dev` and
`/cli-deploy` paths now permanently redirect to their `-commands`
equivalents, and a duplicate navigation entry is removed.
- Give the three pages that all rendered as "Overview" distinct titles
(Building with AI, self-hosting overview, Management API overview), with
sidebar labels unchanged.
- Replace the generic "Learn more" links in the introduction's
build-extension list with descriptive anchor text.
- Switch two http links to https in the Supabase guides, point a
troubleshooting page's help link to Discord, and add missing meta
descriptions to three help and troubleshooting pages.
## Summary
Lands the full AI Agents documentation surface alongside the v4.5
release candidate of `@trigger.dev/sdk`. Covers `chat.agent` end to end
— defining agents, lifecycle hooks, the frontend transport, sub-agents,
recovery from cancel/crash/OOM, AI Prompts integration — and the
Sessions primitive that backs it.
## Coverage
- **Conceptual**: Overview, Quick Start, How it works.
- **Building agents**: Backend (`chat.agent` / `chat.createSession` /
raw primitives), Lifecycle hooks, Frontend transport, Server-side
`AgentChat`, Sessions reference, `chat.local` state primitive,
TypeScript types.
- **Features**: AI Prompts integration, Fast starts (Preload + Head
Start), Compaction, Pending Messages (steering), Background Injection
(`chat.inject` + `chat.defer`), Actions (undo / regenerate / edit),
Error handling.
- **Patterns (13)**: Sub-agents, Branching conversations, Code sandbox,
Database persistence, Persistence and replay, HITL, Tool result
auditing, Large payloads, Agent skills, OOM resilience, Recovery boot,
Trusted edge signals, Version upgrades.
- **Reference**: API Reference, Client Protocol (wire format), Testing
harness (`mockChatAgent`), MCP server tools, Upgrade guide, Changelog.
## Structure changes
- Top-level nav: AI → **Agents**, with sub-groups for *Building agents /
Features / Patterns / Reference*.
- New RC banner snippet on every page links to the supported AI SDK
versions table on the API Reference.
- All examples use Anthropic with `stopWhen: stepCountIs(15)`.
