Week of October 5, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week the project gained a public site with a landing page, manifesto, roadmap and blog, so people can read about it and follow along. The engine, SDKs, sandboxing and Compose all changed too: functions-available updates come from the registry instead of polling, oversized JSON is rejected cleanly, and sandboxes no longer boot on the shared image cache. Installer and Compose reporting were simplified so setup and update checks are easier.

New iii.dev is live with a landing page, manifesto, roadmap and blog. Also this week: engine functions-available updates now come from the registry with no polling task, sandboxes boot on a per-sandbox read-only overlay, and oversized JSON is rejected safely across the Rust, Node

Post for LinkedIn

The new iii.dev is live: landing page, manifesto, roadmap with spec pages, blog with RSS, privacy policy, and analytics that load only after consent. Alongside that, several changes landed in the project. The engine now drives functions-available updates from the registry itself, removing the background task that polled the registry hash every 5 seconds. Sandboxes boot on a per-sandbox read-only overlay instead of the shared image cache. Oversized JSON is rejected safely, with a 16 MiB serialized envelope limit in the Rust, Node, Python and Go SDKs. Compose shows per-worker update progress and running versions, and the installer now asks one setup question and skips setup when iii is already installed.

Week of September 28, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week focused on performance improvements for trace listing and filtering, with changes that avoid unnecessary decoding and allocations. The Go SDK gained schema advertising for custom triggers, and the compose system now plans dependencies more efficiently. These changes make the engine faster and more resource-efficient.

Post for X

0.24.4 ships faster trace listings, optional span events/links, and Go trigger schemas. Engine reduces KV allocations and improves dependency planning.

Post for LinkedIn

Iii 0.24.4 is out. Trace listings now page over root keys instead of decoding every payload. Filtered traces reject candidates before decoding, using root keys and attribute indexes. Go trigger providers advertise schemas. The musl build installs glibc-only workers on glibc hosts. Python SDK reconnects after normal WebSocket closes. Compose plans batches efficiently with shared dependencies.

Week of September 21, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

Version 0.24.3 addresses critical resource leaks in the engine and improves visibility into compose startup behavior. The compose reporting feature makes failures and performance measurable for new users, while socket and telemetry fixes reduce infrastructure costs and operational complexity.

Post for X

Iii 0.24.3 ships compose project reporting for startup visibility, fixes file descriptor exhaustion in long-lived connections, and removes the Amplitude vendor dependency.

Post for LinkedIn

Iii 0.24.3 is out. Compose now reports what projects do—critical for seeing startup failures and performance. Fixed channel socket leaks that exhausted file descriptors under load. Removed Amplitude telemetry to cut duplicate vendor calls and simplify the binary. Engine lifetime now follows compose process lifetime, with SIGHUP graceful shutdown.

Week of September 14, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week brings installation improvements for unattended setups, better composition of workers with pre-configured environments, and critical reliability fixes for startup cancellation and configuration consistency. Download progress visibility and concurrent metadata resolution speed up the developer experience, while Alpine musl support and dependency updates extend platform compatibility and security.

Post for X

Iii 0.25.0 week: non-interactive installs, worker scaffolding flags, concurrent package resolution, startup cancellation, Alpine musl support, and security updates.

Post for LinkedIn

This week's iii updates focus on installation flexibility and startup reliability. The installer now supports non-interactive mode and new scaffolding flags for declaring workers and requesting environment variables. Compose improvements include concurrent package metadata resolution, visible download progress, and the ability to cancel startup with Ctrl+C. Alpine musl workers are now supported with native artifacts, and dependencies have been updated for security and compatibility.

Weeks with too little public activity are left out rather than filled in. Last updated 2026-10-13.
