What is Supabase?

Supabase is reversing its biggest security default - public-schema tables no longer auto-exposed via PostgREST.

The headline shipping move is a deliberate change to Supabase's security posture: new projects can opt out of automatic Data API and GraphQL exposure for public-schema tables, with broader defaults flipping in May. Around it: an OAuth 2.1 compliance fix, an RLS Tester preview to make policy verification possible from the UI, and a steady drumbeat of platform improvements summarized in the monthly developer update.

What is Warp?

Warp drops the terminal framing to bet on cloud software factories and agent orchestration

Warp has pivoted from its origins as an AI-powered terminal to an orchestration layer for cloud coding agents. Its Oz platform now manages multiple agents — Claude Code, Codex, Warp Agent — from one control plane, and a June memo, published publicly, reframes the company around building software factories rather than interactive coding tools. The current blog stream is almost entirely evangelism for that vision: skills, loops, and spec-driven development workflows.

Supabase is reversing its biggest security default - public-schema tables no longer auto-exposed via PostgREST.

◆ Current state

The headline shipping move is a deliberate change to Supabase's security posture: new projects can opt out of automatic Data API and GraphQL exposure for public-schema tables, with broader defaults flipping in May. Around it: an OAuth 2.1 compliance fix, an RLS Tester preview to make policy verification possible from the UI, and a steady drumbeat of platform improvements summarized in the monthly developer update.

◆ Where it's heading

Supabase is rebuilding the security defaults that made it fast to start with but easy to misconfigure. Combine the no-auto-expose change with the RLS Tester preview and the direction is clear: the platform is moving from convention-based exposure to explicit, testable access control. The OAuth compliance fix and developer updates suggest steady investment in standards conformance rather than new product surface this window.

◆ Prediction

Expect the no-auto-expose default to apply to existing projects (with a long opt-out runway), and the RLS Tester to graduate from preview into the dashboard as a first-class panel. Continued breaking-change drumbeat tied to OAuth/OIDC compliance is likely.

Warp drops the terminal framing to bet on cloud software factories and agent orchestration

◆ Current state

Warp has pivoted from its origins as an AI-powered terminal to an orchestration layer for cloud coding agents. Its Oz platform now manages multiple agents — Claude Code, Codex, Warp Agent — from one control plane, and a June memo, published publicly, reframes the company around building software factories rather than interactive coding tools. The current blog stream is almost entirely evangelism for that vision: skills, loops, and spec-driven development workflows.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is unambiguous: away from human-in-the-loop coding and toward orchestrating fleets of autonomous agents that triage, build, and merge with minimal human touch. Recent product launches — bring-your-own-inference and Oz's multi-agent control plane — give the factory thesis real surface area. Expect Warp to keep shipping orchestration, skill-authoring, and self-improvement tooling, and to court enterprises with proof points like Rectangle Health's self-coding agent.

◆ Prediction

Next moves likely deepen Oz's orchestration and skill-optimization features and lean harder into enterprise software-factory deployments, with interactive terminal features getting less attention. Expect more customer case studies positioning Warp as the control plane for whichever agents win.
