# Changelog for August 21st, 2026

Stronger API and MCP access controls, improved notification handling, and fixes for status page email subscriptions.

## Improvements

* Monitor settings now only show checks that are compatible with the monitor type.
* Improved authorization checks when updating monitor settings.

## Security

* Strengthened **API token scoping** to ensure restricted tokens can only access the monitors and resources they have permission to access.
* Improved authorization in **MCP tools** to ensure actions that modify monitors require the appropriate permissions.

## Fixes

* Fixed an issue where disabled notification destinations could repeatedly send **“destination disabled” emails** to team owners and admins.
* Editing the configuration of a paused notification destination now correctly **re-enables the destination**.
* Fixed duplicate **status page email subscriptions**, which could cause subscribers to receive multiple confirmation emails and multiple copies of status updates.
* Fixed duplicate status page subscriptions incorrectly counting multiple times toward a team's subscriber limit.
