We've deployed a new self-serve feature that allows you to reset the machines backing our container builders in Depot. This helps resolve BuildKit issues and clears machine state without waiting for automatic spin-down or cache resets.

⚠️ Important: Resetting will immediately kill any in-flight builds, so only use this feature when no critical builds are running.

To reset a machine:

  1. Go to Container Builds > Projects
  2. Choose your specific project
  3. Click Settings
  4. Click the reset machine button

The reset process immediately clears the machine state and provisions a fresh instance for your next build.
