What is Composio?

Composio runs an aggressive enterprise-hardening pass — Webhook Triggers V2, auth migration, security primitives.

Composio is in heads-down platform-hardening mode. Webhook Triggers V2 introduces a first-class webhook_endpoints resource with a dedicated ingress URL per OAuth app. The legacy POST /api/v3/connected_accounts path is being retired for managed OAuth connections (with a phased migration window in May–July 2026). The proxy execute endpoint now enforces same-domain outbound URLs to prevent Authorization-header leakage. SDKs added a workbench sandbox compute tier picker, multi-connection guard parity in link(), and several breaking removals around legacy file-handling flags.

What is Depot?

Depot is expanding from faster builds into the whole CI stack — tests, source control, and its own metal.

Depot has spent the last month building outward from build acceleration. Test results went generally available with JUnit ingest, org-wide flaky and slow test analytics, and timing-based shard balancing. Underneath that, Depot Metal moved CI and Sandboxes onto bare-metal microVMs the company controls end to end, and Depot Code entered private beta as a diskless git server backed by blob storage. The smaller releases fill in the surrounding surface: Tailscale access to private networks, GitLab OIDC, Datadog CI Visibility, stacked pull requests, and macOS 26 runners on M4.

Composio runs an aggressive enterprise-hardening pass — Webhook Triggers V2, auth migration, security primitives.

◆ Current state

Composio is in heads-down platform-hardening mode. Webhook Triggers V2 introduces a first-class webhook_endpoints resource with a dedicated ingress URL per OAuth app. The legacy POST /api/v3/connected_accounts path is being retired for managed OAuth connections (with a phased migration window in May–July 2026). The proxy execute endpoint now enforces same-domain outbound URLs to prevent Authorization-header leakage. SDKs added a workbench sandbox compute tier picker, multi-connection guard parity in link(), and several breaking removals around legacy file-handling flags.

◆ Where it's heading

The arc is unmistakable: Composio is converting its rapidly built integration plane into something defensible to ship to enterprise customers. Auth migrations, credential redaction, file-upload hardening, same-domain proxy enforcement, observability APIs, and dedicated webhook ingress per OAuth app are all moving in lockstep. Cadence is high (most releases land in clusters on the same day) and tightly coupled — backend, SDKs, and migration plans ship together.

◆ Prediction

Expect the migration windows to drive a wave of customer-facing breaking-change communications, and observability APIs to keep maturing toward billing-grade usage metering. SOC 2 / SOC 3 or related compliance positioning is the natural follow-on once the security primitives stabilize.

Depot is expanding from faster builds into the whole CI stack — tests, source control, and its own metal.

◆ Current state

Depot has spent the last month building outward from build acceleration. Test results went generally available with JUnit ingest, org-wide flaky and slow test analytics, and timing-based shard balancing. Underneath that, Depot Metal moved CI and Sandboxes onto bare-metal microVMs the company controls end to end, and Depot Code entered private beta as a diskless git server backed by blob storage. The smaller releases fill in the surrounding surface: Tailscale access to private networks, GitLab OIDC, Datadog CI Visibility, stacked pull requests, and macOS 26 runners on M4.

◆ Where it's heading

Each layer Depot adds is one it previously rented — compute from cloud runners, source hosting from GitHub, test insight from nothing at all. Owning the storage and hypervisor tiers is what makes the performance claims possible, and owning test data is what turns a build accelerator into something that reports on the pipeline rather than just running it faster. The pattern suggests Depot is positioning as the full CI platform, with speed as the entry point rather than the product.

◆ Prediction

Depot Code should move from private to open beta with tighter Depot CI integration, since a git server the company controls is what makes source-aware caching and test selection possible. Expect the test analytics to grow toward selecting which tests to run, not only how to split them.
