What is Calibre?
Calibre MCP lets your coding agent read RUM and Lighthouse data, then fix the slow code
Calibre now ships a read-only MCP server that gives Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Copilot, Claude and ChatGPT access to an account's RUM, CrUX and Synthetic data, included on every plan with nothing to install. It lands days after Test Agents moved to Chrome 156 and Lighthouse 13.6.0, which added audits for how AI agents read pages. Admins can disable MCP per organisation and revoke connections, and the Company-plan audit log records them.
What is Cluvio?
Cluvio's shared dashboards now speak the viewer's language, down to number formats.
Cluvio is a SQL-first BI tool that ships detailed, incremental releases. Since July it has translated sharing links and embeds into 25 languages, then made them format numbers and dates for the viewer's locale. It also added a dashboard change history, an organization-wide dashboard and sharing-link manager, pivot table drill-down, viewer-mode sign-in on a second device and snippet management inside the report editor.

◆ Current state
Calibre now ships a read-only MCP server that gives Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Copilot, Claude and ChatGPT access to an account's RUM, CrUX and Synthetic data, included on every plan with nothing to install. It lands days after Test Agents moved to Chrome 156 and Lighthouse 13.6.0, which added audits for how AI agents read pages. Admins can disable MCP per organisation and revoke connections, and the Company-plan audit log records them.
◆ Where it's heading
Calibre is turning its monitoring data into something agents act on rather than something people read in dashboards. The summer work on deployment markers, all-pages aggregates and the audit log built the context and governance an agent needs: which deploy, which page, who connected. Expect the remaining surface to follow the same path, with agents both querying performance and being measured by it.
◆ Prediction
The likely next step is write access or deploy-linked workflows over MCP, such as an agent opening a fix tied to a regression marker, since the current server is explicitly read-only and the launch frames fixing as the goal.
Cluvio
0.0ANALYTICS
Cluvio's shared dashboards now speak the viewer's language, down to number formats.
◆ Current state
Cluvio is a SQL-first BI tool that ships detailed, incremental releases. Since July it has translated sharing links and embeds into 25 languages, then made them format numbers and dates for the viewer's locale. It also added a dashboard change history, an organization-wide dashboard and sharing-link manager, pivot table drill-down, viewer-mode sign-in on a second device and snippet management inside the report editor.
◆ Where it's heading
The focus has moved toward shared and embedded dashboards: localization, sharing-link management, change history and embed reliability. That suits teams using Cluvio to serve dashboards to customers or many regions. The analyst side keeps getting careful refinements, such as pivot drill-down and snippets.
◆ Prediction
Expect more work on embeds and sharing links, such as finer locale or access controls. The entries don't show further Static Tables work since June.
