The week in project-management

There were no spark-level launches, but agent plumbing showed up repeatedly. NocoBase, Tracecat and Fibery each shipped changes about how agents are run, steered or connected.

The second pattern is scale: older, heavier views are being rebuilt to carry bigger workloads.

Leaders

NocoBase let its agent runner use the Gitea CLI and run DeepSeek Harness over ACP in the 3 beta, then let applications start their own agent sessions and hand off a bounded summary instead of the full history.

Tracecat took 1.3 to stable, with agents that run for hours and take steering, and opened a 1.4 alpha with incident.io actions and secret expressions in remote MCP headers.

Fibery added an MCP settings page with one-click Claude and ChatGPT setup after AI Connectors went to beta, and sped up entity views and formulas.

Smartsheet raised table view ceilings to 500,000 cells for sheets and 1,500,000 rows for reports, and moved report building into table view. Raising limits is what lets large teams leave older views.

Hive extended its dashboard push to goals, with sub-goals that expand inline, and reworked the dashboard library with expandable folders and favorites.

Wildcards

Ever Teams added pay rates and rate requests, then shipped five patch tags in a night, including a fix for timers logging billable time as non-billable. Billing data now feeds pay rates, so that bug mattered.

Themes that compounded

  • Agent session and runner controls at NocoBase and Tracecat.
  • Easier MCP onboarding at Fibery.
  • Bigger limits on existing views at Smartsheet.
  • Dashboards and goals gaining depth at Hive.

Watch this week

Tracecat's 1.4 alpha and NocoBase's beta cadence suggest more agent controls soon. Ever Teams is shipping patches quickly around billing, and Smartsheet's table view looks set to take more reporting features.
