Changelog
What’s new.
Documentation
- New Docs: quickstart, how roads and conditions work, detours, the MCP server, the Node.js and Python libraries, the HTTP API, watches and webhooks, plans and limits, keys, and exactly what gets sent.
- Docs is linked from the site header and footer and from the app sidebar.
For site owners
- A new For sites page shows site owners what LaneRouter tells them about agents on their site, how claiming a domain works, how official notices reach agents, and how to opt out of patrols.
- The Terms now name the laws of Ontario, Canada, with the courts in Toronto.
Terms, privacy and cookies
- A new Legal page brings the Terms, Privacy Policy, Acceptable use policy and Cookies together, one tab each, in plain language.
- Contact addresses for support, billing and legal questions are listed where they apply.
Flags in the language menu
- Every language menu now shows a flag beside each language.
Road closed
- Took a wrong turn? A new page for roads that don’t exist sends you on a detour that works.
- A tidier footer on phones.
A new home for LaneRouter
- A new homepage that assembles LaneRouter piece by piece as you scroll, from a single road to the whole network.
- The live board now lives at lanerouter.com/board. Existing links keep working.
- Find LaneRouter on npm, X and Instagram from the footer.
Smoother scrolling
- Every page now fits the window exactly, so the bottom of each panel is always within reach.
- Live lists only update when something actually changes, and keep your place while you scroll.
Simpler pricing
- One monthly price per plan: Pro $19 and Insights $49 per domain.
- Everything stays free until 1 December 2026. Upgrading opens then, so nobody pays for time that is already free.
Clearer plan status
- When you cancel, your plan shows the date it ends straight away.
- Paid and included plans no longer show the early access label.
Payments confirmed automatically
- Your plan switches on within minutes of paying, even if you close the page before returning to LaneRouter.
Back and forward arrows
- The back and forward arrows in the header now move between the pages you’ve visited on LaneRouter, and dim when there’s nowhere to go.
Pricing, Pro and Insights plans
- A new Pricing page. Checking, reporting, the live board, the map, detours, MCP and both libraries stay free for every agent.
- Pro, $19 a month or $190 a year: watches with signed webhooks, 30 days of history through the API, and higher limits.
- Insights, $49 a month or $490 a year per domain: the agent experience score and where agents fail on your site. Claiming a domain and posting official notices stay free.
- Everything stays free for everyone during early access, until 1 December 2026.
- Manage billing, change your card or cancel at any time from Watches or Insights. Payments are handled by Stripe.
The LaneRouter library for Python
- pip install lanerouter: two lines and every requests or httpx call your agent makes is checked first and reported after, sync and async.
- Choose what happens on a red light: a logged warning, your own handler, or stop before the request is made.
- Watches and webhook signature checks are built in, and the library has no dependencies.
- A Python tab on the Connect page with copy-ready setup.
- The delivery status on the Watches page now updates as soon as a test arrives.
- The Connect page lists the watch_road, unwatch_road and list_watches tools.
Clearer footer link and key messages
- The footer link to our automated checks now reads “How roads are checked”.
- Signing in with the wrong kind of key now tells you which key that page needs: an agent key (lr_) for Watches, an owner key (lro_) for Claim and Insights.
Watches, webhooks and 30 days of history
- Watch any road and get a signed webhook the moment it turns green, amber or red.
- A new Watches page: add roads, send a test delivery, see every delivery, and remove watches.
- Failed deliveries retry automatically, and every delivery is signed so you can verify it came from LaneRouter.
- Every road page now shows the last 30 days and each change of condition.
- Agents can manage watches with the watch_road, unwatch_road and list_watches MCP tools, or from the Node.js library.
- Rotate your LaneRouter key or owner key at any time. Watches and claims stay with you.
Claim your road, and Insights for site owners
- Run a site? Claim your domain with one DNS record or one file, and every road on it is yours, subdomains included.
- Insights: an agent experience score, the last 7 days of traffic, where agents fail and why, and which agent frameworks visit.
- Official notices: tell agents what to do on your site, for the whole domain or a single road. They appear with a Verified owner badge.
- Agents see official notices when they check a road, through the API, MCP and the Node.js library.
- Free during early access.
The live map
- A new Live map page: every road agents travel, grouped by category, each one a lamp lit by what agents are seeing right now.
- Lamps grow with traffic, so the busiest roads stand out at a glance.
- Live reports scroll in as they arrive, and the matching lamp pulses when a road is reported.
- Full screen mode for a wall display or a launch stream.
- Hover any lamp to see the road and its condition; click it to open the road.
The LaneRouter library for Node.js
- npm install lanerouter: two lines and every request your agent makes is checked first and reported after.
- Choose what happens on a red light: a warning, your own handler, or stop before the request is made.
- Only the road and the outcome ever leave your machine. Full URLs, query strings and IDs never do.
- Reports are batched and deduplicated, so the overhead is one small request per road per minute.
- A Node.js tab on the Connect page with copy-ready setup.
Live road conditions for the agent web
- The live board: every road your agents travel, with a traffic light for its condition right now.
- Six conditions: clear, slow, rate-limited, wall, changed and broken.
- Detours: legitimate routes that worked when a road was blocked, ranked by success.
- Connect any MCP client in one line, with check_road, report_road and red_lights.
- Patrols keep well-known roads current between agent reports.
- Road pages with the last 24 hours, recent reports and copy-ready check commands.
- Dark and light themes, in English, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish and German.
