What is Dokploy?

Dokploy's 0.30 line lands as cloud billing and a Docker network UI, with quiet patches since.

This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes. The GitHub releases in between show v0.30.0 adding a Docker network management UI, then Cloud onboarding, billing and trial work in September. Before that, the 0.29 line added encrypted environment variables and closed a git clone command injection.

What is Doppler?

Doppler adds keyless syncs and agent-facing secrets as on-prem settles in

Three monthly digests follow the June on-prem release. September made Permissive secret naming available to all workplaces, let users with Manage Settings permission revoke every personal and CLI token across a workplace, and added a Dynamic variable type for Vercel syncs. August added syncs to GitHub Copilot Agents, OpenAI service accounts as a rotated secret type, and OIDC for GCP and Azure syncs so no credential has to be stored in Doppler. July brought a workplace-level Compare page across configs and projects.

Dokploy's 0.30 line lands as cloud billing and a Docker network UI, with quiet patches since.

◆ Current state

This feed jumps from v0.29.14 to v0.30.10, dated October 22, a tag with no notes. The GitHub releases in between show v0.30.0 adding a Docker network management UI, then Cloud onboarding, billing and trial work in September. Before that, the 0.29 line added encrypted environment variables and closed a git clone command injection.

◆ Where it's heading

The commercial thread predicted from the plan limits has become concrete: the 0.30 releases include Cloud onboarding and trial handling alongside the self-hosted product. Hardening continues in smaller steps, including a Node.js security bump in v0.30.9. Patch notes have grown thinner, and two recent tags carry no change list at all.

◆ Prediction

Expect further Cloud billing and onboarding work on the 0.30 line. With v0.30.10's notes empty, its content cannot be judged.

Doppler adds keyless syncs and agent-facing secrets as on-prem settles in

◆ Current state

Three monthly digests follow the June on-prem release. September made Permissive secret naming available to all workplaces, let users with Manage Settings permission revoke every personal and CLI token across a workplace, and added a Dynamic variable type for Vercel syncs. August added syncs to GitHub Copilot Agents, OpenAI service accounts as a rotated secret type, and OIDC for GCP and Azure syncs so no credential has to be stored in Doppler. July brought a workplace-level Compare page across configs and projects.

◆ Where it's heading

The June-era commitments are holding: everything reachable programmatically, with Terraform resources following each new feature, and control over a secret's whole lifecycle. A newer line is visible too. AI agents are becoming a place secrets are delivered to, and OIDC is removing the stored credential from Doppler's own syncs. September's fix to instance-admin promotion shows the On-prem build getting ordinary maintenance.

◆ Prediction

Expect more AI-platform sync and rotation targets after GitHub Copilot Agents and OpenAI service accounts, each followed by a Terraform resource. Whether OIDC extends beyond GCP and Azure is not stated.
