Run Logs
-
More reliable invocation event streaming: Invocation event streaming is more reliable for long running jobs by deriving totals from the latest stream event identifier.
-
Reduced Redis usage after log streams complete: Log streaming now cleans up Redis keys after a stream completes, reducing stale keys and Redis memory pressure for high volume runs.
Fixes
dbt Copilot
- Consistent usage limit messaging in Insights and Studio IDE: When users hit the usage limit, dbt disables Copilot and shows a clear message, including the reset date when available.
Studio IDE
-

defer_env_idto defer against a specific environment andno_defer=trueto explicitly disable deferral. -
Studio IDE: Deferral toggle applied more consistently to Language Server Protocol connections: When “defer to production” is turned off, the Studio Integrated Development Environment (IDE) now passes
no_defer=trueto align editor intelligence with the selected deferral behavior. (Language Server Protocol (LSP))
