# Unleash 8.2

_Published 2026-09-10 by Melinda Fekete in Product._

Unleash 8.2 is out, we launched a new website, the fall event calendar is filling up, and by popular demand the AI kill switch webinar is coming back for a third run. Let’s get into it.

## What’s new in Unleash 8.2

**Project-level release templates.** A [release template](https://docs.getunleash.io/concepts/release-templates) is a rollout plan you save once and reuse on any feature flag: for example, your own team first, then 20% of users, then everyone. Until now, all templates lived in one shared list for the whole instance. Project owners can now [create templates for their own project](https://docs.getunleash.io/concepts/release-templates#create-a-project-level-release-template), so your team can set up the rollout steps that fit your work without needing an admin.

**“New in Unleash” page for Open Source.** The “New in Unleash” page is now available in [Unleash Open Source](https://docs.getunleash.io/support/availability#plans) too. It lists the latest capabilities, marks which ones are Enterprise features, and links you to docs, beta access requests, and what we’re working on next.

**Filter flags by creator.** You can now filter the flags overview by [who created each flag](https://docs.getunleash.io/concepts/search-operators#filter-feature-flags). Find your own flags quickly, or see what your team has been working on.

## Rolled out to 100%: the new getunleash.io

We launched a [new getunleash.io](https://www.getunleash.io). We think it captures the use cases we’ve been hearing from you: ship at AI speed, experiment and validate ideas quickly, all with the safety net of instant rollbacks. Take a look and tell us what you think.

While you’re there, check the [events page](https://www.getunleash.io/events). We’ll be in Paris, New York, London, Amsterdam, Munich, San Francisco, and a few more places this fall. We’d love to grab coffee or lunch with you if you’re in the area.

## Unleash plugin for Claude Code

If you use Claude Code, you can now have it follow good feature flag practice on its own. We published a [Claude Code plugin](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash-claude-skills): a growing set of skills backed by the Unleash MCP server, encoding FeatureOps practices for controlling software behavior at runtime.

Two skills so far:

-   **`/unleash:featureops`** evaluates a change for risk, creates flags with consistent naming, wraps code behind flags, plans progressive rollouts, and cleans up stale flags.
-   **`/unleash:migrate-gitlab-flags`** migrates a codebase from GitLab Feature Flags to Unleash: inventory, concept mapping, provisioning, SDK rewrite, and behavior-parity verification.

Skills work out of the box, and some ship as customizable templates you can adapt to your team’s conventions.
