Release Notes

Released on 2026-07-23.

Check out the blog post for a migration guide and overview of the changes!

Breaking changes

• Ruff now enables a much larger set of rules by default (413, up from 59). See the blog post for more details and the new Default Rules page for a full listing of the enabled rules.

• Ruff can now format Python code blocks in Markdown files and will do this by default. See the documentation for more details.

• Ruff now supports ruff: ignore comments at the ends of lines, like noqa comments, or on the line preceding a diagnostic. For example, these both suppress an unused-import (F401) diagnostic:

  import math  # ruff: ignore[F401]
  ruff: ignore[F401]
  import os

• Fixes are now shown in check and format --check output:

  ❯ ruff format --check .
  unformatted: File would be reformatted
   --> try.md:1:1
    |
  1 | ```python
    - import   math
  2 + import math
  3 | ```
    |
  1 file would be reformatted

  This example also shows off the Markdown formatting.

• format --check now supports the same output formats as the linter, including the github and gitlab outputs for rendering annotations in CI:

  ❯ ruff format --check --output-format github .
  ::error title=ruff (unformatted),file=try.md,line=2,col=8,endLine=2,endColumn=10::try.md:2:8: unformatted: File would be reformatted

  See the CLI help or documentation for the full list of supported formats.

• The filename, location, end_location, fix.edits[].location, and fix.edits[].end_location fields in the JSON output format may now be null rather than defaulting to the empty string and row 1, column 1, respectively.
