What is All Quiet?

All Quiet adds least-privilege API keys and Salesforce sync, signaling a push into larger security-conscious teams.

All Quiet is building out the integrations and access controls that enterprise incident management buyers require. Recent releases add Jira field mapping with loop-safe two-way sync, Salesforce case synchronization, scoped API keys for least-privilege agent access, and webhook rate limit visibility. These aren't feature experiments—they're the specific gaps that block deals with larger engineering organizations.

What is Skipper?

Skipper adds raw-path routing predicates after a week of security and maintenance tags.

Skipper tags a release for nearly every merge. v0.28.39 adds four path predicates, prefix and regexp matching on either the normalized or raw request path, so routes can tell an encoded %2f from a slash, with benchmarks showing zero allocations. Just before it, v0.28.37 fixed security advisory GHSA-9hwf-c47m-j4pg in the cache() filter and v0.28.38 removed a direct syscall dependency. The rest of the week was test-certificate consolidation and dependency builds.

All Quiet vs Skipper: editorial side-by-side

A
All Quiet
INFRA · APIS
7.5

All Quiet adds least-privilege API keys and Salesforce sync, signaling a push into larger security-conscious teams.

◆ Current state

All Quiet is building out the integrations and access controls that enterprise incident management buyers require. Recent releases add Jira field mapping with loop-safe two-way sync, Salesforce case synchronization, scoped API keys for least-privilege agent access, and webhook rate limit visibility. These aren't feature experiments—they're the specific gaps that block deals with larger engineering organizations.

◆ Where it's heading

The pattern across these releases is integration depth and access control maturity. Scoped API keys (with 403 returns for out-of-scope calls) and the Salesforce two-way sync both target the compliance and auditability requirements of enterprise buyers. Status page controls (override incident times, publish/unpublish comments) address the public communication layer, distinct from internal incident workflows.

◆ Prediction

Role-based access controls and audit logging are the natural next steps after scoped API keys. The Salesforce integration will likely gain field mapping parity with the Jira integration—custom fields and status-filter controls—in subsequent releases.

Skipper adds raw-path routing predicates after a week of security and maintenance tags.

◆ Current state

Skipper tags a release for nearly every merge. v0.28.39 adds four path predicates, prefix and regexp matching on either the normalized or raw request path, so routes can tell an encoded %2f from a slash, with benchmarks showing zero allocations. Just before it, v0.28.37 fixed security advisory GHSA-9hwf-c47m-j4pg in the cache() filter and v0.28.38 removed a direct syscall dependency. The rest of the week was test-certificate consolidation and dependency builds.

◆ Where it's heading

Skipper keeps taking on edge responsibilities, from caching to identity, while tightening its hot path. Raw-path matching gives operators finer routing control over encoded URLs, a frequent source of proxy bypass bugs, and fits the recent security focus. The certificate refactor still points to TLS work ahead.

◆ Prediction

Expect a TLS-related feature built on the unified certificate setup, plus further cache-filter fixes. Otherwise more Dependabot tags.
