What is Redocly?
Redocly's reunite.agent gets per-duty cron schedules, rules and source repos.
Redocly shipped three Reunite releases and a config release on Oct 28. The feedback and discovery duties in reunite.agent can now each run on their own UTC cron trigger, follow their own rules and read only listed source repositories. SCIM provisioning now accepts identity-provider groups of any size, where pushes over 1,000 members used to fail. @redocly/config 0.69.0 also adds per-rule impact settings for the experimental diff command.
What is WorkOS?
WorkOS is building identity infrastructure for the AI agent era, shipping MCP auth and named agent credentials in a single week.
WorkOS has moved decisively beyond SSO-and-SCIM. The product now covers feature flags with custom targeting, SCIM debugging via dashboard-level log inspection, user groups with role assignment, and OIDC hardening (PKCE, Private Key JWT, pinned token-endpoint methods). The Android SDK rounds out its mobile surface. It is a multi-capability auth platform, not just an enterprise login kit.
Redocly vs WorkOS: editorial side-by-side
Redocly
6.3INFRA · APIS
Redocly's reunite.agent gets per-duty cron schedules, rules and source repos.
◆ Current state
Redocly shipped three Reunite releases and a config release on Oct 28. The feedback and discovery duties in reunite.agent can now each run on their own UTC cron trigger, follow their own rules and read only listed source repositories. SCIM provisioning now accepts identity-provider groups of any size, where pushes over 1,000 members used to fail. @redocly/config 0.69.0 also adds per-rule impact settings for the experimental diff command.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads run together: an agent inside Reunite that does recurring docs work (feedback and discovery) and is gaining scheduling and scoping controls, and enterprise plumbing such as SCIM scale, Git token rotation and permission fixes. Last week's configurable docs MCP server points the same way, with Redocly adding AI surfaces and making them configurable in redocly.yaml.
◆ Prediction
Expect more reunite.agent duty types or options in @redocly/config, and the experimental diff command moving toward a documented API-change check.
WorkOS
7.5INFRA · APIS
WorkOS is building identity infrastructure for the AI agent era, shipping MCP auth and named agent credentials in a single week.
◆ Current state
WorkOS has moved decisively beyond SSO-and-SCIM. The product now covers feature flags with custom targeting, SCIM debugging via dashboard-level log inspection, user groups with role assignment, and OIDC hardening (PKCE, Private Key JWT, pinned token-endpoint methods). The Android SDK rounds out its mobile surface. It is a multi-capability auth platform, not just an enterprise login kit.
◆ Where it's heading
The last two weeks show a clear pivot toward agentic workloads: Agent Auth gives AI agents their own scoped, revocable identities, and MCP Enterprise-Managed Authorization lets identity providers control which agents can reach an MCP server. These are architectural additions that position WorkOS as the auth layer for AI systems, not just human users. Feature flags with custom targeting extend the product further into runtime configuration territory.
◆ Prediction
Expect WorkOS to deepen the agent identity model — likely adding agent-specific audit trails, usage metering per agent identity, and federation between agent credentials and existing enterprise SSO trees. The AuthKit Waitlist API suggests growth-stage SaaS tooling is a secondary expansion surface.
