What is Indent?

Indent is turning a chat assistant into a multi-model agent that works inside your other tools.

Indent's entries describe an AI workspace that sits across chat, code review and automations. It offers several frontier models (Claude Opus 5.5, now the default for new organizations and Pro PR reviews, and GPT-6 Astra), lets users switch models within a family mid-conversation, and has given integrations their own marketplace with personal versus organization connection status. A shared web interface now ships UI updates to desktop without new desktop releases.

What is Jackett?

Jackett ships a daily build to keep hundreds of torrent indexers working as sites move and close.

Jackett is an open-source proxy that turns hundreds of torrent tracker sites into a single Torznab API for media automation tools. It ships an auto-generated release roughly every day, and nearly every one is indexer upkeep: new domains, category mappings, selector fixes after site redesigns, and removing dead trackers.

Indent is turning a chat assistant into a multi-model agent that works inside your other tools.

◆ Current state

Indent's entries describe an AI workspace that sits across chat, code review and automations. It offers several frontier models (Claude Opus 5.5, now the default for new organizations and Pro PR reviews, and GPT-6 Astra), lets users switch models within a family mid-conversation, and has given integrations their own marketplace with personal versus organization connection status. A shared web interface now ships UI updates to desktop without new desktop releases.

◆ Where it's heading

The pattern is reach: Linear issues can be delegated to Indent, automations run on cron schedules rather than only watching Slack, and the integrations catalog is now a browsable surface. Model choice is treated as a setting rather than an identity, which keeps Indent positioned as the orchestration layer rather than tied to one lab.

◆ Prediction

Expect more integrations surfaced through the new marketplace and further automation triggers; new frontier models will likely keep appearing in the picker soon after release, as Opus 5.5 and GPT-6 Astra did.

Jackett ships a daily build to keep hundreds of torrent indexers working as sites move and close.

◆ Current state

Jackett is an open-source proxy that turns hundreds of torrent tracker sites into a single Torznab API for media automation tools. It ships an auto-generated release roughly every day, and nearly every one is indexer upkeep: new domains, category mappings, selector fixes after site redesigns, and removing dead trackers.

◆ Where it's heading

The work is entirely maintenance. Its value depends on keeping up with a tracker ecosystem where sites change domains and layouts weekly. Where possible, the project is moving definitions to sturdier integrations, such as switching world-of-tomorrow to its Torznab API and retiring trackers that moved to direct downloads.

◆ Prediction

Expect the daily cadence to continue, with more trackers moved to API-based definitions and more dead sites removed. Core changes stay rare.
