What is incident.io?

incident.io's agent now runs your team's own tools, with a human approval before any change.

Investigations, the agent that posts a root-cause hypothesis when an incident opens, is the center of incident.io; it went GA and then doubled its speed in September. In October the company pushed its agent skills out into coding harnesses, then opened Nexus to customers' own tools and know-how. The 10-28 release restates that extension model and adds an explicit step: any change the agent proposes waits for a human approval before it runs.

What is Raygun?

Raygun's public changelog stops in November 2024, mid-SDK-maintenance.

The crawled changelog runs from June 2022 to November 2024 and then stops. Its final entries are SDK upkeep across the .NET family: a memory-leak fix in Raygun4Net v8.2.1, a Serilog sink patch, a MAUI release candidate. Product-side work in the visible window is confined to Real User Monitoring CSV exports and a frequency chart on Crash Reporting search results, both from early 2024.

incident.io's agent now runs your team's own tools, with a human approval before any change.

◆ Current state

Investigations, the agent that posts a root-cause hypothesis when an incident opens, is the center of incident.io; it went GA and then doubled its speed in September. In October the company pushed its agent skills out into coding harnesses, then opened Nexus to customers' own tools and know-how. The 10-28 release restates that extension model and adds an explicit step: any change the agent proposes waits for a human approval before it runs.

◆ Where it's heading

incident.io is turning its agent into a two-way integration point that can act, not just diagnose. Skills go out to developers' agents, internal tools and team context come in, and the approval gate is what makes write access acceptable during an incident. Dashboards, ticket sync and alert routing keep incident.io as the record the agent reads from and writes to.

◆ Prediction

Expect worked examples for common connected systems such as deploy or feature-flag tools, and Investigations that propose concrete remediation steps for approval. The entries do not say how extensions are built or priced.

Raygun's public changelog stops in November 2024, mid-SDK-maintenance.

◆ Current state

The crawled changelog runs from June 2022 to November 2024 and then stops. Its final entries are SDK upkeep across the .NET family: a memory-leak fix in Raygun4Net v8.2.1, a Serilog sink patch, a MAUI release candidate. Product-side work in the visible window is confined to Real User Monitoring CSV exports and a frequency chart on Crash Reporting search results, both from early 2024.

◆ Where it's heading

Across the window the pattern is client-library upkeep rather than platform direction: keeping .NET, MAUI and Serilog integrations current while sanding edges on Crash Reporting and RUM views. Raygun4Net v9.0.0 in February 2024 is the one structural move, dropping legacy framework support and shifting message delivery to a background queue. Whether that consolidation continued cannot be read from this feed.

◆ Prediction

No grounded prediction is available: the feed has been silent for roughly 21 months, so the current roadmap is invisible here. The open question is whether the changelog moved elsewhere rather than whether Raygun stopped shipping.
