    BreakingAI Platform

    Direct provider API keys stop working on 2 November

    LLM gateway

    From 2 November the provider keys held by individual teams are revoked. Calls made directly to a provider will fail with a 401; calls through the gateway are unaffected.

    Switching over is a base URL change and a different key. The quickstart has the exact diff for each SDK we support.

    Production clusters upgrade from 1 October — Ingress v1beta1 is removed

    Kubernetes 1.31 upgrade

    Production upgrades run in three waves starting 1 October. Any workload still declaring networking.k8s.io/v1beta1 Ingress objects will fail to deploy once its cluster is upgraded.

    Run kubectl deprecations --context <your-cluster> to see whether you are affected. The migration guide has the before-and-after manifests.

    What you need to do

    • Run kubectl deprecations --context <your-cluster> against every cluster your team owns.
    • Move any v1beta1 Ingress objects to networking.k8s.io/v1, using the before-and-after manifests.
    • Tell us in #devops if you cannot make 1 October, before the waves start.

    Cache hit rate is 71% across onboarded repositories

    Remote build cache

    Median CI build time on those repositories is down from 11 to 4 minutes.

    Action requiredDevOps

    Push protection is on for the 20 busiest repositories

    Secret scanning and push protection

    If a push is blocked, the message names the file and line. Rotate the credential first, then remove it from the commit — do not just force-push over it, because the secret is already in the reflog.

    Rolling out to the remaining repositories through October and November.

    First 40 datasets are indexed

    Data catalog

    Warehouse tables first; event streams and object storage follow. Personal data classification is being reviewed with Legal before anything is opened up more widely.

    38 pipelines still to migrate before the March 2027 shutdown

    Jenkins pipelines

    We will contact owning teams individually from October. If your pipeline is on the list and you think it should simply be deleted, tell us — that is often the right answer for pipelines nobody has run this year.

    Proposal is open for comment until 9 October

    Agent execution sandbox

    We particularly want to hear from teams already running agents against internal APIs, and from Security on the credential model.

    Pilot with three teams starts this month

    Standard development containers

    Checkout, payments and search are piloting. We are measuring one thing: time from git clone to a running service with test data.
