2026.05.0$$$“Golden Wattle” | Date: 2026-05-26$$$New$$$RStudio$$$(#17539): The data viewer is now faster and supports pinnable columns; a Summary sidebar with type-aware stats and sparkline histograms; keyboard navigation; and clipboard copy.$$$(#17539): Added the data_viewer_show_summary user preference; which controls the default visibility of the data viewer’s Summary sidebar.$$$(#17539): Raised the default value of data_viewer_max_columns from 50 to 200.$$$(#17477): Posit Assistant: the ui/openDocument JSON-RPC method now accepts an optional 1-based line parameter; and RStudio advertises the ui/openDocument/line capability so the assistant can open documents at a specific line.$$$(#17478): Posit Assistant: added the ui/revealInFilesPane JSON-RPC method; which navigates the Files pane to a directory (or to a file’s parent directory) and brings the pane to the front.$$$(#17479): Posit Assistant: added the ui/previewUrl JSON-RPC method; which navigates the Viewer pane to an http(s) URL (e.g.; a local Shiny app); supports an optional height parameter that mirrors rstudioapi::viewer() (-1 for maximize; 0 for no change; positive for pixels).$$$(#17514): Added the allow-package-source-recording session option (default true); when set to false; RStudio will not annotate DESCRIPTION files of packages installed via install.packages() with the remote repository they came from.$$$(#5809): Roxygen tag autocompletion (e.g. @param; @return) now works on # lines inside R code chunks of R Markdown and Quarto documents; matching the behavior in plain .R files.$$$(rstudio/launcher#1368): Added opt-in singularity-image-directory-mode option to launcher.slurm.conf to control how the Launcher Slurm plugin resolves singularity-image-directory when a user matches multiple profile levels. See the Slurm plugin README for details.$$$(rstudio/launcher#522): Added nfs-heartbeat-poll-threshold option to launcher.local.conf to tune the Launcher Local plugin’s Network File System (NFS)-mode offline detection latency (default 6 polls × 10s = 60s).$$$Posit Workbench$$$(rstudio-pro#10905; rstudio-pro#10828): Added the assistant-enabled key in /etc/rstudio/profiles as a preview setting for unified Posit Assistant control across RStudio Pro and Positron Pro sessions; with global; per-group; and per-user scopes$$$(rstudio-pro#10331): Moved the project path to a sub-line under the project name on the homepage. The Path column is now hidden by default but can be re-enabled via column settings$$$(rstudio-pro#9817): Updated Posit Workbench logo; favicon; and icons to new branded assets across the Workbench UI$$$(rstudio-pro#10419): Added user-friendly label support to job launcher image dropdown. Use the :: delimiter to append a user-friendly label to images in launcher.{plugin}.profiles.conf$$$(rstudio-pro#9838): Added a “Quit all” sessions action to the homepage$$$(rstudio-pro#10337): Added on-hover tooltips to launcher dialog fields; with links to relevant documentation.$$$(rstudio-pro#9818): Multiple custom OAuth integrations can now share the same issuer URL$$$(rstudio-pro#5766): Added Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE) support for OpenID Connect authentication; enabled by default$$$(rstudio-pro#10837): CLI administrative commands (including interpreters; user management commands such as add-user; list-users; lock-user; set-admin; and unlock-user; plus user-service and upgrade positron) can now be run by the configured Workbench service account (server-user; default rstudio-server) in addition to root.
