What is Prowlarr?

Prowlarr's 3.0 pre-release keeps API keys out of logs and speeds up JSON parsing.

Prowlarr, the indexer manager for the *arr apps, is testing a 3.0 line on its develop branch. 3.0.0 moved the runtime to .NET 10 and Node 24, raised the Postgres minimum to 15 and added ZFS reflink support. 3.0.1 follows with a log fix that scrubs API keys in JSON-escaped query strings and a move to byte-level JSON deserialization.

What is Teable?

Teable adds Get Started guides to templates and shareable artifacts from the CLI.

Teable ships near-daily. Early November brought impact previews before schema changes, owner-run Routines, self-hosted app domains and a read-only MCP query tool, then filter-based bulk updates and structured queries in Pi sessions. The November 13 release adds interactive Get Started guides for templates, formula-based metrics in structured queries, artifact sharing links from the CLI and API, app previews as a selected user, multi-field record search, and halves the default concurrent Routine runs per space to 5.

Prowlarr vs Teable: editorial side-by-side

Prowlarr
COLLAB
5.0

Prowlarr's 3.0 pre-release keeps API keys out of logs and speeds up JSON parsing.

◆ Current state

Prowlarr, the indexer manager for the *arr apps, is testing a 3.0 line on its develop branch. 3.0.0 moved the runtime to .NET 10 and Node 24, raised the Postgres minimum to 15 and added ZFS reflink support. 3.0.1 follows with a log fix that scrubs API keys in JSON-escaped query strings and a move to byte-level JSON deserialization.

◆ Where it's heading

The 3.0 cycle is a platform refresh rather than a feature release, and the follow-up builds are tightening it before it reaches stable. The pattern from 2.6 and 2.7, a pre-release then a stable build days or weeks later, suggests 3.0 will land on master once these fixes settle.

◆ Prediction

A stable 3.0 release on the master branch is the likely next step, carrying the .NET 10 and Postgres 15 requirements to all users.

8.8

Teable adds Get Started guides to templates and shareable artifacts from the CLI.

◆ Current state

Teable ships near-daily. Early November brought impact previews before schema changes, owner-run Routines, self-hosted app domains and a read-only MCP query tool, then filter-based bulk updates and structured queries in Pi sessions. The November 13 release adds interactive Get Started guides for templates, formula-based metrics in structured queries, artifact sharing links from the CLI and API, app previews as a selected user, multi-field record search, and halves the default concurrent Routine runs per space to 5.

◆ Where it's heading

Teable is making its agent-facing pieces (queries, CLI, Routines) consistent with the rest of the product: query expressions now reuse formula syntax, and CLI commands are regrouped with old ones deprecated. Templates with guided setup point toward packaging finished apps for others to install.

◆ Prediction

Expect the deprecated standalone CLI commands to be removed in the next release, as announced, and more template and app-sharing features built on the new guides.
