🤖 Easily set up CI-based automations with templates
Now you can spin up new automation rules based on the CI status of your PRs! We've created templates for common workflows such as: wait to request reviewers until CI passes, and notify the PR author when CI fails.
👉 Create your first CI automation!
🧺 Reduce CI costs with batch merges
To help reduce your CI costs, Graphite can evaluate CI on a batch of PRs all at once and merge them if the status is green -- reducing your overall number of CI runs. This works with both stacked and non-stacked PRs.
You may be wondering how this is different from Parallel CI. Both increase merge throughput, and batching especially helps with reducing CI runs when you merge. But in case you ever need to revert a PR and want to know CI passed at that point in time, you can configure Parallel CI to still run on each individual PR -- ensuring fully green commit history on your trunk branch.
And good news: we're going to integrate both merge strategies so you get the best of both worlds!

🐸 Skip unnecessary CI runs with Graphite's CI optimizer
Graphite's merge queue helps reduce your costs and time spent waiting on CI when you click merge, but what about when you're still making changes?
Soon, you'll be able to integrate Graphite with Buildkite and GitHub Actions to intelligently skip unnecessary CI runs, such as those happening in the middle of stacks, or for rebases.
