We’re excited to announce that Agentic Pipelines is now generally available across all paid Cloud Bitbucket plans. You can run agents on our cloud runners or on self-hosted Linux Docker runners, with support for more runner types coming soon. With this launch, Bitbucket Pipelines evolves from a CI/CD tool into an intelligent workflow engine that increases developer productivity by letting agents handle routine engineering tasks.

We’re refreshing the Bitbucket Pipelines experience to make it easier to read logs, find the steps you need, and navigate a pipeline run. The update focuses on the Pipelines list and Pipeline result pages. This is a visual refresh only. Your pipeline configurations, builds, data, runners, variables, deployments, and integrations stay as they are. It’s the same Bitbucket Pipelines underneath, with a cleaner, more focused view.

Agentic Pipelines now integrates with the redesigned Atlassian MCP server for Claude and Codex agents. Rovo Dev CLI agents in Agentic Pipelines currently use the original version of Atlassian MCP server and are unaffected by this update.

Merge Queues help keep your busy branches stable by testing how changes work together before they’re merged. Today, we’re introducing public APIs for Merge Queues, available to all Standard and Premium workspaces in Bitbucket Cloud. The new APIs let your tools use the existing merge endpoint to queue pull requests, track their progress and respond to the outcome.

Flaky tests stall pull requests. Slow tests drag out builds. Outdated tests add maintenance work that’s easy to put off. To help optimize your test suite, we’re adding two new agents in Bitbucket, Test Optimizer and Test Cleanup and an improved Flaky Test Fixer. With these agents, your team will spend less time babysitting tests and more time shipping.

Engineers write tests for the logic that worries them and let the small details slide. One of our commerce engineering teams now has a scheduled agent that finds the thinly tested files, writes the missing tests, and opens a pull request for review. Nobody decides to skip a unit test. The core logic gets covered, the small details don’t make the cut, and most days that’s a fair trade.

Developers use Bitbucket Cloud every day to turn plans into working software. Code lives in repositories, feedback happens in pull requests, and Bitbucket Pipelines helps teams validate changes before they move forward. For an AI assistant to help with this work, it needs access to the same information. Without a direct connection, developers have to gather pull request details, pipeline results, logs, and links before the assistant can help.

Last quarter, our AI reviewer told a developer who was fixing a CSS bug to rethink how their component fetched data. The comment was well written and confidently worded. It was also about code they hadn’t touched. That’s what tends to happen when you hand an agent every team’s review guidelines at once.

The hard part of a feature flag is rarely adding it. It is remembering to remove it months later, when the rollout is over, the original context has faded, and there is always a more urgent piece of work waiting. Since April 2026, one Atlassian team has used Agentic Pipelines to clean up their monthly backlog of stale feature flags. The workflow prepares the change and opens a pull request, while engineers still review and merge the pull request.

Finding code across your repositories in Bitbucket just got a major upgrade. We’ve rolled out code search in open beta for Bitbucket Cloud: a faster, more integrated search experience built to help you find code across your workspace without interrupting your workflow. For many developers, search is one of the fastest ways to explore an unfamiliar codebase, investigate an incident, audit API usage, or scope a refactor.
