What is CodeRabbit?

CodeRabbit moves its review status to a GitHub check run and keeps Deep Scan coverage fresh.

CodeRabbit is building a security product on top of its PR reviewer. October brought AI Deep Scan API access on all plans, linked-repo context, merge blocking on Security findings, runtime reproducers and now Delta Deep Scans that refresh changed or stale coverage between full scans. On the review side, the status now posts as a GitHub check run with per-stage timing.

What is Tigris?

Tigris keeps publishing its architecture, and the newest post opens up the storage engine itself.

This feed is Tigris's engineering blog, and it alternates between protocol critique and descriptions of how the product answers it. The most recent post opens the internals: how Tigris composes ACID metadata, global placement, caching, replication, and background work on FoundationDB into a multi-region object store. Before it came the Recycle Bin — deletion of objects and buckets on top of immutable storage in an active-active geo-replicated database — plus two posts dissecting SigV4 and presigned URLs, and one on agent-native onboarding through tigris init --agent.

CodeRabbit vs Tigris: editorial side-by-side

C6.3

CodeRabbit moves its review status to a GitHub check run and keeps Deep Scan coverage fresh.

◆ Current state

CodeRabbit is building a security product on top of its PR reviewer. October brought AI Deep Scan API access on all plans, linked-repo context, merge blocking on Security findings, runtime reproducers and now Delta Deep Scans that refresh changed or stale coverage between full scans. On the review side, the status now posts as a GitHub check run with per-stage timing.

◆ Where it's heading

Deep Scan is turning from a periodic audit into continuous coverage wired into merge gates. The review product is integrating deeper into GitHub's native primitives and reading other agents' config, such as Claude Code rules.

◆ Prediction

Expect Delta Deep Scans and runtime verification to extend beyond GitHub to GitLab, following the pattern of earlier triage and linking features.

5.0

Tigris keeps publishing its architecture, and the newest post opens up the storage engine itself.

◆ Current state

This feed is Tigris's engineering blog, and it alternates between protocol critique and descriptions of how the product answers it. The most recent post opens the internals: how Tigris composes ACID metadata, global placement, caching, replication, and background work on FoundationDB into a multi-region object store. Before it came the Recycle Bin — deletion of objects and buckets on top of immutable storage in an active-active geo-replicated database — plus two posts dissecting SigV4 and presigned URLs, and one on agent-native onboarding through tigris init --agent.

◆ Where it's heading

The writing is doing product work. Each protocol post establishes a problem — SigV4's canonicalization and clock skew, presigned URLs as deliberate replay attacks, S3 egress pricing on ClickHouse restores — and positions Tigris behavior as the answer, which makes the blog a migration funnel rather than a changelog. The architecture post is a different move: publishing the FoundationDB composition is a credibility play aimed at buyers who need to believe a newer object store can hold multi-region data.

◆ Prediction

Expect the protocol-critique-then-Tigris-answer format to continue, with the egress-cost framing recurring as the clearest paid migration path. Feature announcements will likely stay embedded in essays rather than appearing as release notes.
