What’s New in June

Here’s a roundup of the new features and improvements we shipped over the past month.

Checkly MCP Server

We released our first version of the Checkly MCP! You can read the announcement or install it straight away using its URL:

https://api.checklyhq.com/mcp

You’ll find more specific instructions for each supported client, as well as limitations in our documentation.

Checkly CLI v8.10.0: What’s New

Upgrade to v8.10.0 to access the latest CLI features and improvements released over the past month.

Deploy larger CLI projects reliably (CLI v8.10.0)

The CLI now supports large deployments more reliably, including projects with thousands of resources. For longer deployments, the CLI displays progress based on the resources being created or updated. It also handles multiple deployments started at the same time:

  • By default, a new deployment waits for the current deployment to finish.

  • Use -cancel-in-progress-deployment to cancel the running deployment and start the new one immediately.

Result assets, straight from the terminal (CLI v8.8.0)

No more digging through nested check-result JSON. List and download the artifacts of any check run or test-session result - logs, Playwright traces, videos, screenshots, pcaps, reports:

  • checkly assets list --result-id <id> --check-id <id> (or --test-session-id) — filter by --type/--asset, view as table/tree/json

  • checkly assets download <same as above> --type all — pulls everything into ./checkly-assets/…, with --force / --skip-existing

→ Learn more in our docs.

Drill into a single test-session result (CLI v8.7.0)

Jump straight to one result's logs and timing inside a session with checkly test-sessions get <id> --result <result-id>. Pairs with checkly test-sessions list to find the session first.

→ Learn more in our docs.

Delete a check by ID (CLI v8.8.0)

Delete a check by ID with checkly checks delete <id>. Confirmation prompt by default (or --force), plus --dry-run to preview. Note that checks managed by a CLI project get recreated on the next deploy, remove those from your project code instead.

→ Learn more in our docs.

Manage account members (CLI 8.7.0)

Use checkly account members update / delete to manage account members. Beyond listing, you can now change a member's role (--role) or remove them, by email or user ID. Confirmation prompt and --dry-run included.

→ Learn more in our docs.

Tag Manager: Manage tags in one place

The Tag Manager is now available in the top level menu under Configuration, making it easier to manage tags across your entire account.

You can now:

  • Rename existing tags: Updates the tag everywhere it is used, including checks, groups, and maintenance windows.

  • Delete unused or incorrect tags: Clean up typos and outdated tags without updating each resource individually.

  • Add tag descriptions: Give Rocky AI additional context it can use when generating root cause analyses.

The Tag Manager is currently available in the Checkly UI only. Head to the Checkly Webapp to try it out now.

Developer Experience

Checkly Slack app

You can now install the Checkly Slack app to receive alerts and rerun checks or AI analyses directly from Slack. The app replaces webhook-based Slack alerts and is available through a new CLI construct, with Terraform support coming soon. Learn more on the in-app installation page or in the docs.

Cancel Agentic Check runs

You can now cancel Test prompt runs, Test session runs, and Check runs for Agentic Checks from both the API and UI.

Rocky AI RCA now uses OTel traces and the last passing result

To improve root cause analysis, Rocky AI now automatically looks for related OTel traces and compares the failure against the most recent passing result. This gives Rocky more context to identify regressions and explain what changed. Read the full changelog for more information.

Trace IDs are now included in check result API responses

When using Checkly OpenTelemetry Traces, the Check Run Result now returns the corresponding Trace ID through the API:GET /v1/check-results/{checkId}/{checkResultId}. You can use this ID to correlate a check run with its trace in Checkly or your observability backend.

HTTPS record support for DNS monitors

DNS monitors now support the HTTPS resource record type. Learn more in the DNS monitor docs.


Happy monitoring!
