# Faster checks, and new repos just work

> 2026-10-21 · CLI 0.6.8 · Improved, Fixed · https://comity.so/changelog/2026-10-21-faster-hooks

Hook checks are faster, a skipped check now tells you, and brand-new repos work before you add a remote. Update with `comity update`, then run `comity init` once in each repo.

## Improved

**Faster checks.** Each edit check starts quicker and runs fewer git commands, so they land well inside the time limit on slower networks.

**Skipped checks are visible.** If a check can't reach Comity in time, your agent tells you once that the edit wasn't checked, and `comity status` lists recent skips.

## Fixed

**New repos without a remote** are recognized by their first commit, so hooks work right away. Adding a remote later keeps the history together.

**No more "Missing environment variables: COMITY_TOKEN"** in Claude Code's `/mcp` screen after `comity init`.

**Two agents in one folder** now get a hint to use a git worktree each, since agents sharing a checkout are never compared.
