What is incident.io?

incident.io ships its agent skills as a plugin for any coding harness.

incident.io's main bet is Investigations, the agent that posts a root-cause hypothesis when an incident opens; it went GA and then doubled in speed in September. Around it the company has filled out the operations layer with alert routing, ticket sync, dashboards and dark mode. The newest release packages incident.io's agent skills as a plugin that installs into whatever coding agent a team already uses.

What is Raygun?

Raygun's public changelog stops in November 2024, mid-SDK-maintenance.

The crawled changelog runs from June 2022 to November 2024 and then stops. Its final entries are SDK upkeep across the .NET family: a memory-leak fix in Raygun4Net v8.2.1, a Serilog sink patch, a MAUI release candidate. Product-side work in the visible window is confined to Real User Monitoring CSV exports and a frequency chart on Crash Reporting search results, both from early 2024.

incident.io ships its agent skills as a plugin for any coding harness.

◆ Current state

incident.io's main bet is Investigations, the agent that posts a root-cause hypothesis when an incident opens; it went GA and then doubled in speed in September. Around it the company has filled out the operations layer with alert routing, ticket sync, dashboards and dark mode. The newest release packages incident.io's agent skills as a plugin that installs into whatever coding agent a team already uses.

◆ Where it's heading

The product is moving from an incident app with an AI feature to a set of agent capabilities that can live outside its own UI. Investigations made the agent the core; the plugin makes that agent portable into developers' tools. The platform work around it keeps making incident.io the system of record those skills read from.

◆ Prediction

Expect more incident.io actions exposed through the plugin, such as declaring incidents or drafting status updates from a coding agent. The entries do not show which harnesses are supported or how it is priced.

Raygun's public changelog stops in November 2024, mid-SDK-maintenance.

◆ Current state

The crawled changelog runs from June 2022 to November 2024 and then stops. Its final entries are SDK upkeep across the .NET family: a memory-leak fix in Raygun4Net v8.2.1, a Serilog sink patch, a MAUI release candidate. Product-side work in the visible window is confined to Real User Monitoring CSV exports and a frequency chart on Crash Reporting search results, both from early 2024.

◆ Where it's heading

Across the window the pattern is client-library upkeep rather than platform direction: keeping .NET, MAUI and Serilog integrations current while sanding edges on Crash Reporting and RUM views. Raygun4Net v9.0.0 in February 2024 is the one structural move, dropping legacy framework support and shifting message delivery to a background queue. Whether that consolidation continued cannot be read from this feed.

◆ Prediction

No grounded prediction is available: the feed has been silent for roughly 21 months, so the current roadmap is invisible here. The open question is whether the changelog moved elsewhere rather than whether Raygun stopped shipping.
