Cloudflare Tunnel vs q2

q2 is the Quarto team's Rust reimplementation of the publishing toolchain, shipping as a statically linked single binary with minisign-signed archives and a bundled Quarto Hub MCP server, still marked experimental and not production-ready. The cadence holds at roughly a release a day through mid-August, with raw commit logs standing in for curated notes. v0.22.0 was the break in the pattern — llms.txt site output and a live-share preview, the first capability the original toolchain does not have. v0.23.0 goes straight back to closing the parity gap, and does it at epic scale.

The light-dark epic is the shape of how this team retires a Quarto 1 feature: a design doc, then ThemeConfig growing a parsed dark variant, dual theme compilation with color-scheme emission, attributed stylesheet links, a color-mode toggle runtime, an accessibility-aware highlight-style reader, a brand light/dark seam, and an end-to-end verification pass against quarto-web before the docs land. One phase (D) was deferred with its options recorded rather than dropped. Around it, panel-tabset support lands, format.html.css is finally copied and rebased per page, and the llms companion output gains a link-format attribute so authors control where companion links point — the one thread tying this release back to the v0.22.0 work.

Expect the remaining Q1 parity items to keep setting the release agenda, with the deferred light-dark phase D and the freshly opened panel-tabset plan the two named strands most likely to fill the next few tags. npx distribution for the standalone Quarto Hub MCP bundle is still the only distribution item the notes explicitly call planned.
