How does a site change get published?

Coding mode ships changes through a pull request. A person merges.

Coding mode is for the repository: build, fix, and ship. You attach files, pick a model, and pick the repo and branch. Otto opens a pull request. A preview URL shows up when a preview exists.

What you see in the thread

  1. 1
    Messages, markdown, and the tool cards.
  2. 2
    When the run is ready for review: Merge to Main, if you are a reviewer or admin and the checks pass.
  3. 3
    Schedule merge for later picks a date and time. At that time Otto checks the pull request again.
  4. 4
    Archiving a thread hides it from the list. It does not delete the run or change usage. It stays under Settings → Archive.
WordPress is a different door. Posts created there default to draft. Publishing still needs a reviewer or an admin.
