What is Indent?

Indent is turning a chat assistant into a multi-model agent that works inside your other tools.

Indent's entries describe an AI workspace that sits across chat, code review and automations. It offers several frontier models (Claude Opus 5.5, now the default for new organizations and Pro PR reviews, and GPT-6 Astra), lets users switch models within a family mid-conversation, and has given integrations their own marketplace with personal versus organization connection status. A shared web interface now ships UI updates to desktop without new desktop releases.

What is Velociraptor?

Velociraptor's recent releases are mostly about patching CVEs.

Velociraptor 0.77.3 shipped on October 5 as a bug fix and CVE release; it also adds an artifact that uploads server results to Azure Monitor and trims the columns emitted by the backup artifacts. 0.77.2 and a 0.76.7 backport in September and August were CVE fixes. The 0.77.1 feature release landed in June, but its notes in the feed only link out.

Indent is turning a chat assistant into a multi-model agent that works inside your other tools.

◆ Current state

Indent's entries describe an AI workspace that sits across chat, code review and automations. It offers several frontier models (Claude Opus 5.5, now the default for new organizations and Pro PR reviews, and GPT-6 Astra), lets users switch models within a family mid-conversation, and has given integrations their own marketplace with personal versus organization connection status. A shared web interface now ships UI updates to desktop without new desktop releases.

◆ Where it's heading

The pattern is reach: Linear issues can be delegated to Indent, automations run on cron schedules rather than only watching Slack, and the integrations catalog is now a browsable surface. Model choice is treated as a setting rather than an identity, which keeps Indent positioned as the orchestration layer rather than tied to one lab.

◆ Prediction

Expect more integrations surfaced through the new marketplace and further automation triggers; new frontier models will likely keep appearing in the picker soon after release, as Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra did.

Velociraptor's recent releases are mostly about patching CVEs.

◆ Current state

Velociraptor 0.77.3 shipped on October 5 as a bug fix and CVE release; it also adds an artifact that uploads server results to Azure Monitor and trims the columns emitted by the backup artifacts. 0.77.2 and a 0.76.7 backport in September and August were CVE fixes. The 0.77.1 feature release landed in June, but its notes in the feed only link out.

◆ Where it's heading

Since June the project has been in security mode, fixing CVEs on the current line and backporting to the previous one. Feature work shows up as new artifacts, here an Azure Monitor export, which keeps Velociraptor feeding results into the logging tools teams already use.

◆ Prediction

Expect further 0.77 patch releases and possibly another backport if new CVEs are published; the timing of a 0.78 feature release is not signaled here.
