Good morning, this is your Agora Next Updates for the week of January 18th through 25th, 2026.
Four pull requests merged and five additional commits this week, with significant focus on draft proposal management improvements.
Starting with features, Pedro Fernandes delivered the largest update with pull request 1374, adding comprehensive draft management capabilities. The changes include a "Clear all drafts" button for bulk deletion, a new tabbed interface organizing proposals, drafts, and sponsorship requests, and simplified card layouts. This addresses a real pain point - the OP manager currently has 286 drafts to manage. The update spans 11 files with over 600 lines added.
Also on the feature side, Fernandes merged pull request 1376, including proposal config type in the form parser, streamlining the draft creation process across 2 files.
Moving to fixes, Atomauro resolved an Atlas server authentication interaction issue in pull request 1378, a focused one-line change to the server auth module.
For infrastructure updates, Atomauro cleaned up Optimism preview link text in pull request 1377, updating text across RetroPGF application pages and configuration files.
Additional commits this week include Fernandes enabling grants functionality for demo environments and adding a new debug page with 351 lines of diagnostic code. This suggests ongoing preparation for expanded feature rollouts.
All merged pull requests received proper code review, with atomauro's contributions getting approval before merge.
The week's development pattern shows continued investment in user experience, particularly for high-volume users managing multiple proposals, while maintaining system stability through targeted fixes.
Looking ahead, the new debug infrastructure and grants enablement for demos indicates testing and feature expansion likely continue next week.
That's your Agora Next development update. We'll be back next week with more updates from the repository.
