Kill Bill keeps two release lines alive with small invoice-template changes.
Kill Bill ships on two lines: 0.25.x tags with no published notes, and 0.24.x releases that list small changes. Recent 0.24 work is about invoices: shared tenant branding (logo, company info, colours) in the HTML invoice generator, a revert of a branding template key, and partial-locale support for invoice and catalog translations.
Pigment's agent push has paused while the planning surface around it gets systematized.
Pigment's recent releases split into two streams. The agent stream peaked in late July when Agents moved to the homepage and began working across multiple Applications in a single conversation. Everything since has been platform craft: chart formatting and readability, View Templates, live deployment progress, metric difference detection, and Metric data kept in sync across environments. Three newer undated entries continue that pattern with per-series chart control, wider View Template options, and a centralized usage overview spanning Workspaces.

The visible feature work is per-tenant invoice presentation, with branding and localisation becoming configurable rather than hard-coded. The 0.25 line ships regularly but its notes are bare Maven tags, so its direction can't be read from the entries.
More invoice-presentation and localisation changes on 0.24.x are likely; what 0.25.x is building toward isn't visible in the entries.

Agent capability has slowed while the surrounding model surface is being made consistent. Templates are becoming the unit of that consistency, with a Simple View Template now settable as the default for all new Views in an Application and duplicable across Applications. Environment management is maturing in parallel through deployment progress and connected Metric data that travels with a deployment and cannot be edited downstream. The new Workspace usage overview points somewhere different again, at administrators of multi-workspace estates who need cells, AI credits and storage in one view.
Expect the usage overview to grow from warnings into capacity administration, since the limits it reports against already exist. The agent stream is the one to watch for a resumption, and the open question the cross-Application work raised is governance over what an agent may reach.
