# Publish lock for subscriptions, TodoWrite in chat and query analytics

*Version 1.229 – released 2026-02-27*

## Publish lock for subscriptions

Publishing to production is gated on an active subscription, and a lock icon on the publish button makes the state obvious rather than surfacing the error only after a click.

## TodoWrite in chat

The admin chatbot can maintain a to-do list scoped to the current conversation, updating items as it works. Useful for multi-step operations that take more than one tool call.

## Query analytics

A query analytics view shows what customers are searching for on the storefront – zero-result queries, popular terms, and conversion from search to purchase.
