What is Feedly?
Feedly's reader roots recede as threat-intel agents take over the changelog
Feedly's changelog is now almost entirely a cyber threat intelligence product log. The last three months added models tuned for insider threats and threat actor campaigns, Suricata rule extraction, SPL queries alongside KQL, GreyNoise and VirusTotal enrichment, and a Vulnerability Agent. The August release extends Custom Intel Agents with Analyze and Research actions and adds a Censys lookup to IP cards.
What is OpenCTI?
OpenCTI spends a release unblocking queues and hardening upserts
7.260817.0 is a fix release. The most consequential item is malformed STIX messages nacking forever and blocking worker queues indefinitely — a stall in the ingestion path rather than a display bug. Alongside it: upsert clearing an existing createdBy when incoming confidence is higher, draft upserts crashing on existing attack patterns, OTP handling in the stream middleware, and case template relation authorization. Score fields were added to threat actor groups, intrusion sets and malware.

Feedly's reader roots recede as threat-intel agents take over the changelog
◆ Current state
Feedly's changelog is now almost entirely a cyber threat intelligence product log. The last three months added models tuned for insider threats and threat actor campaigns, Suricata rule extraction, SPL queries alongside KQL, GreyNoise and VirusTotal enrichment, and a Vulnerability Agent. The August release extends Custom Intel Agents with Analyze and Research actions and adds a Censys lookup to IP cards.
◆ Where it's heading
The arc runs from retrieval toward analysis: earlier releases broadened what Feedly could collect, recent ones give analysts agents that reason over it and emit artifacts their existing tools accept. Report Builder citations that trace a claim to its source passage target the trust problem gating generated intelligence in a SOC. Coverage has become table stakes; the contest is over whether analysts accept the machine's conclusions.
◆ Prediction
Expect the agent surface to keep gaining verbs rather than new data sources, with more export formats aimed at the SIEM and detection tooling analysts already run.

OpenCTI spends a release unblocking queues and hardening upserts
◆ Current state
7.260817.0 is a fix release. The most consequential item is malformed STIX messages nacking forever and blocking worker queues indefinitely — a stall in the ingestion path rather than a display bug. Alongside it: upsert clearing an existing createdBy when incoming confidence is higher, draft upserts crashing on existing attack patterns, OTP handling in the stream middleware, and case template relation authorization. Score fields were added to threat actor groups, intrusion sets and malware.
◆ Where it's heading
The platform's feature energy went into the connector catalog and integrations rework in July, and the releases since have been consolidating: mass operations on relation times, shareable saved searches, and now a pass over ingestion robustness. Adding score to more entity types continues the slow enrichment of the data model that runs underneath the feature work.
◆ Prediction
Given score arriving on three entity types in one release, expect it to keep spreading across the data model, and the queue-blocking class of bug to draw more worker-side hardening.
