What is LogRocket?

LogRocket's tracked feed is still its editorial blog, so product moves stay out of view.

All recent entries come from the LogRocket Blog: enterprise UX, a browser-based receipt scanner, TypeScript dependency graphs, Claude Code habits and agent usability for product managers. None describes a change to the product. The closest item, just outside the latest six, is a customer story about using LogRocket's MCP.

What is OpenMQTTGateway?

OpenMQTTGateway returns after 22 months with a security-first 1.9.0.

OpenMQTTGateway shipped v1.9.0 on November 7, its first release since January 2025. It moves to the Arduino ESP32 core 3.x, ships Theengs Decoder 2.5.0 with a fix for a BLE advertisement parsing flaw affecting every earlier release, and hardens buffer handling across MQTT, HTTP, BLE and RF input. Upgrade notes warn that some Home Assistant unique_ids change and that encrypted BLE devices are skipped until a key is set.

LogRocket's tracked feed is still its editorial blog, so product moves stay out of view.

◆ Current state

All recent entries come from the LogRocket Blog: enterprise UX, a browser-based receipt scanner, TypeScript dependency graphs, Claude Code habits and agent usability for product managers. None describes a change to the product. The closest item, just outside the latest six, is a customer story about using LogRocket's MCP.

◆ Where it's heading

The editorial direction leans further into AI agents, with posts on designing for agents and on skills versus MCP tools. That shows audience positioning rather than product direction. Without a product changelog source, the feed cannot show where session replay or analytics is heading.

◆ Prediction

Nothing about the product's next move can be read from this feed. Blog coverage of agent tooling will likely continue.

2.5

OpenMQTTGateway returns after 22 months with a security-first 1.9.0.

◆ Current state

OpenMQTTGateway shipped v1.9.0 on November 7, its first release since January 2025. It moves to the Arduino ESP32 core 3.x, ships Theengs Decoder 2.5.0 with a fix for a BLE advertisement parsing flaw affecting every earlier release, and hardens buffer handling across MQTT, HTTP, BLE and RF input. Upgrade notes warn that some Home Assistant unique_ids change and that encrypted BLE devices are skipped until a key is set.

◆ Where it's heading

Earlier releases made the gateway independent of controllers and external brokers. The return release is about safety and a modern ESP32 base rather than new features, which suggests the project is resetting its foundation before resuming feature work.

◆ Prediction

Expect the promised security advisory for the Theengs Decoder flaw and 1.9.x fixes for the Home Assistant entity changes; whether regular cadence resumes is not yet clear from the entries.
