Broadcom also says customers can access more than 150 validated open and commercial models through integrated deployment and operations services.→Forward opens its network digital twin and AI workflow to wider teamsThe trial lets network, security and cloud teams ask plain-language questions against a mathematically accurate model and receive evidence-based answers. It can also identify the assets affected by a CVE and provide deterministic evidence about how proposed changes affect production networks across major clouds.→SkyWalking 11.0 separates Horizon UI from OAP and adds live rule debuggingSkyWalking 11.0.0 makes Horizon UI an independently deployed component rather than a bundled legacy web UI and exposes a dedicated administration port for management APIs. The release adds TLS certificate hot reload for OAP HTTP and REST servers, runtime rule hot-update, live DSL debugging, and trace-tail sampling.→Node.js 26.8 adds crypto, diagnostics and SQLite APIsNode.js 26.8 enables SIV and GCM-SIV modes in Cipher and Decipher, marks TracingChannel stable, improves histogram and net.BlockList behaviour, and adds non-throwing MIMEType.parse. It also adds SQLite StatementSync close and dispose methods, basic REPL syntax highlighting and ZipFile, ZipEntry and ZipBuffer support, alongside certificate and Web Crypto fixes.→Cline SDK v0.0.78 adds durable Hub event replayQueued runs now survive Hub upgrades, reconnecting clients replay missed events, and event IDs prevent duplicate processing. The release also adds session and client identity to Langfuse traces and refreshes model defaults and pricing.→LiteLLM v1.98.0 adds gateway observability and control featuresThe gateway can now attach opt-in session and trace identifiers to JSON logs, send per-deployment SSE heartbeats, and enforce configurable output-token limits by key, team, or model. The release also exposes routing groups as virtual models and improves MCP timeouts, tracing, and provider cost accounting.→GitHub Agentic Workflows tightens safe outputs and reproducibilitygh-aw v0.87.4 makes compilation fail when safe-output step-output tokens cannot resolve, adds pinned Agent Plugins, and supports per-engine model overrides and custom providers. It also stops `GH_TOKEN` persisting in repo-memory clone `.git/config` and derives conclusion-job write permission from resolved safe-output configuration.→syslog-ng 4.9 adds native HTTP statistics exporterssyslog-ng 4.9.0 adds `stats-exporter()` and `stats-exporter-dont-log()` sources that expose `syslog-ng-ctl` statistics or queries to HTTP scrapers, with rate, format and single-instance controls. It also adds RFC6587 auto-detection for octet-count framing and inotify-based wildcard-file change detection.→GitHub's Copilot Cloud Agent status visibility degraded for hoursGitHub's status page said Copilot Cloud Agent tasks were still completing, but newly started tasks did not show ongoing progress and session output was delayed by about an hour. GitHub reported gradual recovery during the window and marked the incident resolved at 00:37 UTC on 21 August.→Claude Agent SDK adds explicit subagent depth and refusal lifecycle eventsClaude Agent SDK TypeScript 0.3.238 adds is_backgrounded and spawn_depth to subagent task events, plus a terminal refused state for cross-session messages rejected by policy. It also fixes hook reinitialisation and exposes more reliable branch and prompt-suggestion events.→Spring Boot 4.2.0-M1 adds AMQP 1.0 and image-based Buildpacks cachesSpring Boot 4.2.0-M1 adds generic AMQP 1.0 and RabbitMQ AMQP 1.0 support, and lets Cloud Native Buildpacks publish and restore build caches through an image registry.
