@planepowers v2.6.0 is here. Self-hosters, this is one of our biggest! Everything from launch week is now live for self-hosted, in a single release: - PQL - a query language for work items - Releases as a first-class feature - Collections in Wiki - A rebuilt work item page - IdP Group Sync for Enterprise Thread 🧵

What a week. @planepowers Launch Week is wrapped. Full recap below. We shipped across the full surface of work: work items, queries, dashboards, releases, docs, AI, MCP, Cursor, and Bitbucket.

The best companies in history treat their core technology as a living organism… Continuously replacing itself on a regular cadence and continuously improving… Just like living organisms have proteins that continuously get replaced over time.

☕️ Releases are now generally available in Plane. - Group work items from any project under a named release - Progress bar updates as work item states change - Write and publish the changelog on the same page - Tag items with a Release custom property Two new custom property types ship alongside, - Release picker, which automatically routes work items into a release's Scope tab. - Formula field, which computes values from other properties on the work item. Day 3, launch week. ☕️ Step inside our coffee launch week - Read more about Releases -

1/5 Introducing PQL, Plane Query Language, and enhanced Dashboards. Now generally available. A query language for work items, an AI that writes queries from plain English, the same syntax inside dashboards, redesigned dashboards, and interactive charts.

Introducing the all-new work-item detail view. State, Priority, Assignee, and dates now sit in the center column under the title. The properties pane is grouped into Details, Project structure, and Custom properties.

Introducing work-item hierarchy in Plane. Define parent-child rules between work item types at the workspace level. Plane enforces them across the product: work item creation, sub work-items, type changes, bulk ops, and imports.

Work item detail pages just got a major upgrade. Here is what's new, 1/7 Parent-child relationships now show inline in the header, so you know exactly where you are in the hierarchy.

1/ We released Collections just a few days ago, and one thing has become very clear already: - Knowledge management on @planepowers is growing much faster than we expected. Across Cloud and self-hosted (with telemetry on), we’re seeing nearly 50x growth in adoption.

Project Apollo. Project Glasswing. Project Hail Mary. The interesting word isn’t the second one. “Project” — from projicere, to cast forward. Every Project is an act of throwing something into the future and betting it lands. That’s why the word carries weight decades after Apollo and still fits fiction set decades ahead. Projects are where ideas gather force. Plane is where they take shape.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ @planepowers!

Follow @Carles_Reina — one of the most exceptional people in the game when it comes to understanding new-age GTM and scaling. Had a great chat with him the other day. Humbled and honoured. 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️ Also, watch:

For the last 3 years, I've been building @planepowers across geographies, constantly moving between Hyderabad and London. Today, Plane supports teams across aerospace, financial institutions, automobiles, retail, defense and large enterprises, helping millions of people move work forward inside their organizations. With that scale comes something heavier than growth. Responsibility. When your systems sit at the core of how organizations operate, you don't just ship features. You carry the weight of their progress. Over the last year, one thing became clear: A large part of that responsibility sits in the US. And I wasn't close enough. At the same time, the way Plane is being adopted is changing. Fast. Larger deployments. Deeper integrations. A shift toward agent-driven capabilities across the stack. The conversations are different now. The expectations are higher. The surface area is expanding faster than any of us anticipated. This phase demands proximity. To customers. To operators. To builders shaping how these systems evolve in real time. We're building Plane to be the coordinate system for how serious companies run their work, with humans and agents on the same plane. > One place where every team, every project, every outcome is plotted together. That mission belongs closest to the people we serve. So I made a decision. I've moved to San Francisco. Permanently. Not as an experiment, but as a commitment to be closer to the people who trust Plane to run their mission-critical systems, and to build the next phase of the company with more clarity, speed, and depth. The gap between idea and execution is collapsing. I want @planepowers to move at that speed. We're building from the US now: hosting gatherings, going deep with teams operating at the edge, and meeting the people defining what comes next. If you're one of them, I'd love to meet. P.S. A few frames of SF from my last few weeks. There's something about this city that makes you want to build. Couldn't capture the Karl yet!

NMR receptivity — the single number that ranks atomic isotopes by how detectable they are in a magnetic field — traces its lineage through five Nobel Prizes: Bloch and Purcell for discovering nuclear magnetic resonance in 1946, Ernst for Fourier transform NMR, Wüthrich for protein structure determination, Lauterbur and Mansfield for MRI. That one formula, R ∝ γ³ × I(I+1) × C, shaped sixty years of experimental physics by answering a simple question: which atoms can I see? In this new paper I’ve written with the help of Opus 4.6, we introduce the Temporal Scaffolding Capacity (TSC), which extends that lineage in a new direction by asking a fundamentally different question: which atoms can scaffold a time crystal? The TSC replaces the nuclear gyromagnetic ratio with the total atomic magnetic moment (because time crystals care about atom-to-atom coupling, not atom-to-detector coupling), replaces the angular momentum eigenvalue with the Hilbert space dimension (because what matters is the number of quantum states, not the magnitude of the spin vector), and adds an entirely new term — the logarithm of the hyperfine coupling constant — that captures the internal entanglement bandwidth between the nucleus and its electron cloud, a quantity that NMR receptivity ignores completely because it treats the electron cloud as passive shielding rather than an active participant. Our result is a single number that ranks any isotope in the periodic table by three simultaneous capacities: how many internal gears it has, how loudly its magnet grabs neighboring atoms, and how richly its nucleus and electrons talk to each other — and the top five candidates (dysprosium, holmium, erbium, terbium, strontium) turn out to operate at frequencies entirely below the vibrational floor of the simplest aromatic molecule, making them the atomic basement on which molecular time crystals are built.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ ENJOY!! 🕰️🔮 Paper:
