We've improved how Atmos handles YAML functions during merges across configuration layers. Atmos now postpones merging YAML functions until after the regular merge is done. This avoids the type conflicts that used to happen when a stack layer replaced a plain value—like a string, map, or list—with a YAML function such as a template or an output reference.

The !env YAML function now supports reading environment variables from env sections defined in your stack manifests and Atmos configuration. This makes it easy to set defaults for environment variables and reference values from your infrastructure configuration.

Stop fighting with different Atmos configurations for development, CI/CD, and production. Profiles let you switch contexts with a single flag while keeping your core configuration consistent.

Atmos now automatically provisions AWS SSO permission sets as identities when you authenticate. Log in once, and all your available roles are instantly ready to use—no manual configuration required.

Atmos now automatically discovers your repository root and runs from there, just like Git. No more cd-ing back to the root directory.

We've completely rebuilt Atmos error handling from the ground up to provide helpful hints, rich context, and enterprise-grade error tracking. When something goes wrong, you now get actionable guidance instead of cryptic messages, and enterprises can track and analyze errors across their entire infrastructure stack.

Atmos now includes 350+ terminal themes to customize your CLI experience. Choose from popular themes like Dracula, Solarized, or GitHub Dark, or browse the complete collection to find one that matches your style.

We're thrilled to announce native Azure authentication support in Atmos! You can now authenticate to Azure using atmos auth login with device code flow, OIDC, and service principals - working identically to az login with full Terraform provider compatibility.

You can now disable Atmos identity authentication by setting --identity=false, allowing you to use cloud provider SDK credential resolution instead.

The atmos describe family of commands now supports the --identity flag, enabling runtime authentication when processing YAML template functions that access remote resources. This ensures that !terraform.state and !terraform.output functions work seamlessly without relying on ambient credentials.

If you develop Terraform providers, you can now test them locally with Atmos-managed components using Terraform's development overrides feature. This enables rapid iteration without publishing development versions to a registry.

We're excited to announce two major improvements to Atmos authentication: per-step authentication for workflows and authentication support for custom commands. These features enable you to seamlessly use cloud credentials in your automation while maintaining security through file-based credential management.

Atmos now features intelligent terminal output that adapts to any environment automatically. Developers can write code assuming a full-featured terminal, and Atmos handles the rest - capability detection, color adaptation, and secret masking happen transparently. No more capability checking, manual color detection, or masking code. Just write clean, simple output code and it works everywhere.

Atmos now supports Azure Blob Storage backends in the !terraform.state YAML function. Read Terraform outputs directly from Azure-backed state files without initializing Terraform—bringing the same blazing-fast performance to Azure that S3 users already enjoy.

Atmos now includes atmos auth console, a convenience command for opening cloud provider web consoles. Similar to aws-vault login, this command uses your authenticated Atmos identities to generate temporary console sign-in URLs and open them in your browser.

We're excited to announce a new global flag that makes working with Atmos across multiple repositories and directories significantly easier: --chdir (or -C for short).

Atmos Auth supports flexible keyring backends, giving you control over how authentication credentials are stored. Use your system keyring for native OS integration, file-based keyrings to share credentials across OS boundaries (like between your Mac and a Docker container), or memory keyrings for testing.

We're excited to announce a new authentication command: atmos auth logout. This command provides secure, comprehensive cleanup of locally cached credentials, making it easy to switch between identities, end work sessions, and maintain proper security hygiene.

We're introducing two new commands for exploring Atmos releases: atmos version list and atmos version show. Browse release history with date filtering, inspect artifacts, and keep your infrastructure tooling up-to-date—all from your terminal with beautiful formatted output.

We're excited to introduce atmos auth shell, a new command that makes working with multiple cloud identities more secure.

This command launches isolated shell sessions scoped to specific cloud identities. Think of it like aws-vault exec, but for all your cloud identities managed by Atmos—AWS, Azure, GCP, GitHub, SAML, and more.

When you exit the shell, you return to your parent shell where those credentials were never present. It's a simple pattern that helps prevent credential leakage and reduces the risk of running commands against the wrong environment.

We're excited to announce a powerful new command for managing authentication in Atmos: atmos auth list. This command provides comprehensive visibility into your authentication configuration, making it easier than ever to understand and manage complex authentication chains across multiple cloud providers and identities.

We've shipped a feature that developers working with complex infrastructure configurations have been asking for: provenance tracking. With the new --provenance flag in atmos describe component, you can now see exactly where every configuration value originated—down to the file, line number, and column.

We're introducing atmos auth - native cloud authentication built directly into Atmos. After years of solving the same authentication problems repeatedly across different tools and teams, we've built a solution that works whether you adopt the entire Atmos framework or just need better credential management.
