What is Drizzle ORM?

Drizzle's 1.0 RC cycle pairs a performance rebuild with first-class agent tooling

Drizzle ORM is deep in its 1.0.0 release-candidate cycle. Two engineering thrusts dominate: a rewritten internals layer (codecs, JIT mappers, Effect v4) that fixes long-standing data-mapping bugs while cutting query latency, and a push to bring every dialect (Postgres, MySQL, SQLite) to parity under that new system. Alongside the ORM, Drizzle Kit is gaining machine-readable output and an explicit AI-agent surface.

What is Jackett?

Jackett ships daily; every release is tracker-definition upkeep, never product change.

Jackett is in pure maintenance cadence: a tagged release lands most mornings, and each one is a batch of auto-generated commits against indexer YAML definitions. The last ten releases contain domain bumps, category-mapping corrections, selector fixes, and the occasional tracker added or removed. Nothing in this window touches the daemon, the Torznab API surface, or the UI.

Drizzle's 1.0 RC cycle pairs a performance rebuild with first-class agent tooling

◆ Current state

Drizzle ORM is deep in its 1.0.0 release-candidate cycle. Two engineering thrusts dominate: a rewritten internals layer (codecs, JIT mappers, Effect v4) that fixes long-standing data-mapping bugs while cutting query latency, and a push to bring every dialect (Postgres, MySQL, SQLite) to parity under that new system. Alongside the ORM, Drizzle Kit is gaining machine-readable output and an explicit AI-agent surface.

◆ Where it's heading

The codec system is the spine of this cycle — it unifies how drivers normalize data and unlocks both correctness fixes and speed. After porting it across dialects (rc.3 MySQL, rc.4 SQLite), Drizzle is converging on a stable 1.0. The newer signal is Drizzle Kit going agent-native: JSON output contracts, a programmatic SDK, an MCP server, and bundled Agent Skills aimed at AI coding assistants driving migrations.

◆ Prediction

Expect the RC cycle to wind toward a 1.0.0 stable release once remaining dialect parity (notably the SQLite Effect work) lands, with continued investment in the agent-facing Drizzle Kit surface.

5.0

Jackett ships daily; every release is tracker-definition upkeep, never product change.

◆ Current state

Jackett is in pure maintenance cadence: a tagged release lands most mornings, and each one is a batch of auto-generated commits against indexer YAML definitions. The last ten releases contain domain bumps, category-mapping corrections, selector fixes, and the occasional tracker added or removed. Nothing in this window touches the daemon, the Torznab API surface, or the UI.

◆ Where it's heading

The project's value is the freshness of its indexer catalog, not its feature set, and the release stream reflects that exactly — churn tracks how often trackers move domains or change markup, not any roadmap. Recent entries show a slow drift toward API-based indexer integrations (simurg and desigaane both moved to API-key authentication) instead of HTML scraping, which is the only structural change visible here. Coverage keeps rotating as dead trackers are dropped and new ones land.

◆ Prediction

Expect the same daily definition-update rhythm to continue, with more indexers migrating from scraped selectors to native API or Torznab endpoints where sites expose them. The entries give no signal about changes to Jackett itself.
