Copilot's code review turns extensible while admins get finer switches over models and devices.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of InvokeAI and Promptfoo — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
InvokeAI adds video generation and multi-GPU, moving past its image-only boundary
The 6.14.0 release candidate is the largest change in this window by a wide margin: video generation via Wan 2.2 covering text-to-video and image-to-video, multi-GPU support, and a batch of new model families — Krea.2-Turbo and Raw, Ernie Turbo, Ideogram 4, plus Anima controlnets and inpainting. Everything before it is stabilization: 6.13.5 and its release candidate were explicitly maintenance cuts, 6.13.6 fixed a single crash in the Qwen Image models, and 6.13.0 in early June broadened model coverage including remotely hosted providers such as GPT Image.
Promptfoo tracks every frontier model within days, and now ships itself as agent skills
Promptfoo is an LLM evaluation and red-teaming harness, releasing at a pace set by the model market rather than by its own roadmap. The provider list absorbs new frontier models almost as they launch — Claude Opus 5, Claude Sonnet 5, Claude Fable and Mythos, GPT-5.6 on Bedrock and at GA, Grok 4.5, Kimi K3, plus Bedrock coverage for GLM, MiniMax, Nemotron, Gemma and Palmyra. Around that, the work is harness ergonomics: per-test repeat, websocket URL templating and subprotocol surfacing, YAML source locations in prompt reference errors, and a steady stream of assertion-scoring corrections.

The release notes have been signposting 6.14.0 since June — the 6.13.5 notes list video generation, multi-GPU, pressure-sensitive canvas, HiDiffusion and workflow-to-workflow calls as what was coming — so the last two months read as a deliberate quiet period holding the tree stable while the feature branch landed. The direction it lands in is broadening on two axes at once: modality, from images to video, and hardware, from one GPU to several. The 6.13.0 addition of remotely hosted models points the same way, toward a workbench that orchestrates whatever backend a model needs rather than one that only runs locally.
With 6.14.0 still at release candidate 1 and carrying this much new surface, the near-term work is most likely candidate iterations and fixes against the video and multi-GPU paths before stable. Several features named in the 6.13.5 notes — pressure-sensitive canvas, HiDiffusion, workflow-to-workflow calls — do not appear in the candidate's own highlights, so they are the obvious candidates for what follows.

Two things are happening at once. The provider matrix is a commodity race the project has decided to win on latency-to-support, which makes promptfoo useful precisely because it is never the reason you can't evaluate a new model. The more interesting move is distribution: publishing its four red-team skills to the Claude Code marketplace puts evaluation and adversarial testing inside the coding agent rather than in a separate CLI run. The assertion fixes — BLEU brevity penalty, inverse operators on cost and latency, zero thresholds honoured — suggest the scoring layer is being tightened as people rely on it for gates rather than exploration.
Expect same-week support for the next frontier model releases to continue, with further red-team capability packaged as agent skills rather than only as CLI commands.
