dqcheckr adds drift analysis, then removes the YAML a user had to hand-write.
dqcheckr runs configurable data-quality checks over files and DuckDB tables, driven by YAML dataset configs and recording results as snapshots. The 0.2.0 release added the ability to compare two historical snapshots and report per-column statistical drift, schema changes and trend charts, extending the tool from point-in-time checking into change over time. The most recent tag, 0.3.0, attacks the other friction point by generating the config itself from a sniff pass over the data.
ScreenshotOne grinds out reliability and quietly tailors output for AI workflows
ScreenshotOne ships a steady stream of small, focused improvements to its rendering API — cache reliability, full-page stitching fixes, banner blocking, and admin and notification conveniences. The one strategic thread is tooling aimed at AI analysis, like splitting full-page captures into slices.

Both moves point the same way: reduce what the operator has to write and know. Config generation removes the hand-authored YAML that gated first use, list_runs() and validate_config() make an existing setup inspectable, and the snapshot comparison turns accumulated run history into a second product surface. Check coverage keeps widening underneath — outlier detection, composite keys, row-count and file-size ceilings — and the reporting layer moved from rmarkdown to Quarto, with existing 0.1.x databases auto-migrated on first run.
Expect the generated configs and the drift reports to converge, so a sniffed config can seed thresholds from the snapshot history rather than from defaults, plus continued growth in the numbered QC check catalogue.

The product is maturing as dependable infrastructure rather than chasing big features, with incremental quality and rendering-fidelity work dominating. A light but recurring nod to AI use cases — slicing for analysis, agent integrations — hints at where new demand is coming from.
Expect continued reliability and rendering-fidelity fixes plus more features framed around feeding screenshots into AI pipelines; nothing in the recent cadence suggests a larger directional change.
