KubeArmor vs Redocly: at a glance
What is KubeArmor?
KubeArmor ships fixes as release-candidate tags, and its feed misses the finals.
KubeArmor's feed shows five release-candidate tags and one merge-commit entry from October for 1.7.6 and 1.7.7, each carrying one or two commits: a relay-channel memory leak fix with pprof added, a snitch fix, removed limits and an AppArmor alert-throttling fix. GitHub shows 1.7.6 went final on 23 October, which the feed missed; it replaced the execve kprobe with a tracepoint, fixed pods not terminating on AppArmor nodes, added audit alerts from the BPF-LSM enforcer and expanded arm64 eBPF testing.
What is Redocly?
Redocly fixes API reference pages that broke on custom hooks across five packages.
Redocly's past week was fixes. On November 9 five packages shipped the same fix for API reference pages that showed an Unknown hook error instead of docs, plus a Try it console that now asks for a reload after a redeploy. Platform releases fixed editor hangs on large repos, rejected organization names that look like card numbers, and stopped redocly push reporting success on blocked publishes. Config 0.72.1 adds triggers and rules to the docs agent's support-conversation duty.

KubeArmor
5.0INFRA · APIS
KubeArmor ships fixes as release-candidate tags, and its feed misses the finals.
◆ Current state
KubeArmor's feed shows five release-candidate tags and one merge-commit entry from October for 1.7.6 and 1.7.7, each carrying one or two commits: a relay-channel memory leak fix with pprof added, a snitch fix, removed limits and an AppArmor alert-throttling fix. GitHub shows 1.7.6 went final on 23 October, which the feed missed; it replaced the execve kprobe with a tracepoint, fixed pods not terminating on AppArmor nodes, added audit alerts from the BPF-LSM enforcer and expanded arm64 eBPF testing.
◆ Where it's heading
The project is mid-way through stabilising its eBPF enforcement across architectures: arm64 syscall matching, multi-arch image tests and the move from kprobes to tracepoints all reduce kernel-specific breakage. The release process remains RC-heavy, with near-identical tags cut minutes apart, which makes the feed a poor guide to what users actually get.
◆ Prediction
Expect 1.7.7 final soon after rc1, carrying the AppArmor throttling fix. The arm64 work in 1.7.6 suggests further multi-architecture fixes rather than new policy features next.
Redocly
6.3INFRA · APIS
Redocly fixes API reference pages that broke on custom hooks across five packages.
◆ Current state
Redocly's past week was fixes. On November 9 five packages shipped the same fix for API reference pages that showed an Unknown hook error instead of docs, plus a Try it console that now asks for a reload after a redeploy. Platform releases fixed editor hangs on large repos, rejected organization names that look like card numbers, and stopped redocly push reporting success on blocked publishes. Config 0.72.1 adds triggers and rules to the docs agent's support-conversation duty.
◆ Where it's heading
After the Markdoc fork and docs agent changes on November 3 and 4, Redocly is in stabilization. The agent work continues in config, where the support-conversation duty can now run on a schedule against a Front desk.
◆ Prediction
Expect more docs agent duties and options in config, and further fix batches as the Markdoc fork settles.
