These are the features and fixes you'll get by upgrading from 2026.1.11242 to 2026.2.999.

9906 - Tasks list option for "All" not showing Timed Out tasks correctly
9913 - Implement a custom color picker directly within the Tenant Tag color selection dialog
9911 - Kubernetes live status tooltips now display the specific reason a resource has an Unknown health or sync status, instead of generic text
9909 - Added octopus variable to override NuGet source for dotnet scripts
9908 - Fixed an issue where package extraction does not respect build metadata

9910 - Add new Modify via Helm dialog to the Kubernetes agent/worker settings overflow menu. This can be used to get a Helm command for modifying the Helm release for the agent/worker
9904 - When Manual Intervention is used as the child of a step without target tags, other child steps do not wait for it to be resolved
9903 - Always display invalid compliance policies in the Server Task logs

9896 - Server restart now required to stop background work on UI nodes. We have updated how work gets done in the background on Octopus Server nodes, and a restart will now be required in order to stop/start background work on UI nodes where the task cap is 0. This change also stops deployment and runbook work being done on UI nodes

9898 - Added the ability for administrators of self-hosted instances to enable exporting OpenTelemetry traces to disk for diagnostic purposes
