What is Keboola?

Keboola connects GitHub organizations once, ending personal tokens for private repos.

Keboola now lets a GitHub organization connect once through the Keboola GitHub App, so dbt, Custom Python and Apps can clone private repositories without personal access tokens. It follows a run of governance work: Branched Storage enabled on all stacks from November 2, a read-only query_data tool in the MCP server, patched data app images, and scheduled cleanup of idle workspaces.

What is Parseable?

Parseable's 3.2 patches turn the observability console into a toolset for external agents.

Parseable's 3.2 patch line shipped six releases between mid-September and late October. v3.2.5 added a tool executor API for external MCP servers and exposed read-only tools, and v3.2.6 added log and trace errors as tools and saved PromQL filters. Earlier patches added server-wide throttling, crash-safe staging recovery, and CPU, memory, disk and query metrics.

5.0

Keboola connects GitHub organizations once, ending personal tokens for private repos.

◆ Current state

Keboola now lets a GitHub organization connect once through the Keboola GitHub App, so dbt, Custom Python and Apps can clone private repositories without personal access tokens. It follows a run of governance work: Branched Storage enabled on all stacks from November 2, a read-only query_data tool in the MCP server, patched data app images, and scheduled cleanup of idle workspaces.

◆ Where it's heading

Most recent releases remove risky defaults: shared tokens, write access for AI agents, stale workspaces and unpatched images. Keboola is tightening the platform for larger teams and agent use rather than adding new components.

◆ Prediction

Expect more credential and permission cleanups, such as other app-based integrations replacing tokens, and the February 2027 removal of emailed API tokens to go ahead.

5.0

Parseable's 3.2 patches turn the observability console into a toolset for external agents.

◆ Current state

Parseable's 3.2 patch line shipped six releases between mid-September and late October. v3.2.5 added a tool executor API for external MCP servers and exposed read-only tools, and v3.2.6 added log and trace errors as tools and saved PromQL filters. Earlier patches added server-wide throttling, crash-safe staging recovery, and CPU, memory, disk and query metrics.

◆ Where it's heading

The earlier focus on trustworthy querying continues, but a new consumer has appeared: agents calling Parseable through tools. Alongside that, the operational metrics and throttling show a system being run under real load.

◆ Prediction

Expect the tool catalog to keep growing in the next patches, with write-capable tools a clear open question since v3.2.5 stops at read-only. Query stability and metrics fixes should continue alongside it.
