What is Countly?
Countly's two LTS lines now get the same security fixes within a week of each other.
Countly ships security patches on two LTS lines, 25.03 and 24.05. In late October 25.03.56 moved the Docker images to Node.js 24.22.1 for a Brotli CVE and brought Python 3.12.15 to the A/B testing stack; 25.03.58 tightened tokens: app-restricted tokens must state their permissions, password changes revoke a member's tokens, and single-use tokens hold under concurrent requests. 24.05.55 then brought those same fixes to the older line, including the isolated-vm sandbox for custom hook code that 25.03 adopted in August.
What is Deepnote?
Deepnote's agent now runs from first prompt to finished notebook without handoffs.
Deepnote's most recent entry, in October, makes Deepnote Agent a single agent that keeps context from the first instruction to the finished notebook, and lets private and shared projects sit in the same folder. It builds on June's native Codex connection to a workspace's notebooks, schedules and data, and July's MCP tools that let agents create and attach integrations. Spring releases added run snapshots, Git sync, Polars support, PDF export and AI usage metering.

Countly
5.0ANALYTICS
Countly's two LTS lines now get the same security fixes within a week of each other.
◆ Current state
Countly ships security patches on two LTS lines, 25.03 and 24.05. In late October 25.03.56 moved the Docker images to Node.js 24.22.1 for a Brotli CVE and brought Python 3.12.15 to the A/B testing stack; 25.03.58 tightened tokens: app-restricted tokens must state their permissions, password changes revoke a member's tokens, and single-use tokens hold under concurrent requests. 24.05.55 then brought those same fixes to the older line, including the isolated-vm sandbox for custom hook code that 25.03 adopted in August.
◆ Where it's heading
The work is about access control and supply chain, not new analytics features. Tokens, sessions and login counting are being tightened release by release, and the 24.05 line is being pulled up to the 25.03 runtime (Node.js 22 for custom code, Python 3.12 with CmdStanPy for A/B testing) instead of being left on older stacks. Feature work shows up only in small items such as explicitly named databases and a licence payment-overdue banner.
◆ Prediction
Expect more paired patches as token and session hardening continues on both lines. The entries don't say how long 24.05 will keep receiving backports.
Deepnote
2.5ANALYTICS
Deepnote's agent now runs from first prompt to finished notebook without handoffs.
◆ Current state
Deepnote's most recent entry, in October, makes Deepnote Agent a single agent that keeps context from the first instruction to the finished notebook, and lets private and shared projects sit in the same folder. It builds on June's native Codex connection to a workspace's notebooks, schedules and data, and July's MCP tools that let agents create and attach integrations. Spring releases added run snapshots, Git sync, Polars support, PDF export and AI usage metering.
◆ Where it's heading
The notebook is being repositioned as a workspace agents operate in, both Deepnote's own agent and external ones like Codex. Releases have slowed from monthly in spring to one entry each in July and October.
◆ Prediction
Further agent capabilities or more external agent connections are the likeliest next move; the slower cadence makes timing hard to read.
