Tracecat 1.0 stable lands with workspace entitlements, SSRF hardening, and an open-source MCP skills catalog
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Ever Teams and NocoBase — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Three tags in one day: a workspace UI rewrite, then two rounds of repairing it.
v0.136.0 landed a workspace UI modernization, and the same day produced v0.136.1 and v0.136.2 correcting it — global admins locked out of reports, settings scroll height lost, avatars rendering empty or mangled when the image source is route-relative or a Blob. The preceding tags follow the same shape: v0.135.0 added build versions to the footer and spent six commits fixing that footer, and v0.134.0's demand-driven startup rewrite carried a long run of preservation fixes across auth, transport and scoped state.
NocoBase adds an AI knowledge base retrieval API, connecting no-code workflows to external knowledge sources.
NocoBase is an open-source no-code/low-code platform shipping on two parallel tracks: a stable beta (2.3.x) and an alpha preview (2.4.x). Both tracks are active—the same features land in alpha first, then backport to beta within days. The most significant recent addition is an authenticated knowledge base retrieval API with a built-in provider for remote NocoBase knowledge bases, giving AI employees in workflows access to structured external content for RAG-style lookups. Security improvements are also landing: blocking server-side requests to literal IP addresses and preventing secret env var exposure in custom request URLs.

The release train mints a version number per merged pull request, so the tag count tracks development activity rather than user-visible change. The work underneath is real — a startup rewrite in v0.134.0, a workspace UI pass in v0.136.0 — but each lands incomplete and is repaired within hours. The account-scoped assistant history and hardened localized assistant controls in v0.136.0 are the first sign of the in-app assistant being treated as per-account state rather than a shared surface.
Expect further 0.136.x patches as review findings against the new workspace UI surface. The assistant scoping work suggests that surface is next in line for the same pass.

NocoBase is building out its AI employee and workflow AI layer systematically: context data source settings were simplified in alpha.3, and now the knowledge base retrieval API adds a retrieval-augmented generation primitive that no-code users can wire into workflows without writing code. The WeCom and DingTalk integrations continue to mature, signaling a Chinese enterprise market focus alongside international adoption. Security hardening (XSS prevention, SSRF mitigations) is getting attention across releases, suggesting enterprise deployments with compliance requirements.
NocoBase will expand the AI knowledge base surface—likely adding vector search providers, fine-grained access control for knowledge bases, and richer AI employee configuration tied to specific knowledge domains. Expect the 2.4.0 release line to formalize AI employees as a stable feature alongside the knowledge base API.
