RELEASE HIGHLIGHTS
Our first release of 2025 — primarily a quality-of-life release, with the next big feature coming very soon.
PUBLIC ESCROW ACCESS FOR ALL PAYING CUSTOMERS
Give your customers peace of mind that their code is securely escrowed.
A few months ago we released a big feature set that allowed any user in the world to sign up for free and securely escrow their software’s code. We’ve now expanded on this — any existing paying customer can let their customers see secure escrow certificates of their synced code vaults.
This is particularly useful if a company develops and maintains business-critical software for their customers and wants to provide peace of mind that their code is securely escrowed by an independent third party.
Any user can enable public escrow access at the project level, set whether to require a password to view it, and get a unique URL to send to their customers. Customers can use this URL to view escrow certificates for the collection of code vaults within that project. The user can also enable code downloads, so customers can download the latest version of their code from those pages too.
We’ll soon be expanding on this further by allowing all users to manage related files for their escrowed code — documentation, guides, and more — that can be transferred or downloaded securely by customers.

OTHER CHANGES
More Infrastructure Scaling Improvements
As we start to work with larger and larger companies, we’ve been carefully monitoring our resources and infrastructure and made important improvements to our reliability and resource scaling.
Improved Ada’s Capabilities at the Project Level
We’ve provided Ada with more information about languages and file types detected across a whole project, to improve her responses to some queries.
Ability to Disable All Automated Reports
We’ve added this option for larger customers with hundreds of code vaults — receiving an automated email for each code vault every week or month can be a bit much! Reports can still be downloaded within the web app if the emails are disabled.
Updated Our Authentication System, Powered by Hanko
Hanko released a major update to their secure authentication system, which we use at The Code Registry, and we’ve updated our code in line with it. The main change you’ll notice: when you enter your email to sign in, you can only enter a code (not choose a passkey) by default — you have to click “Sign in with a passkey” specifically. This is an intentional change by Hanko to align with the latest passkey security standards.
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a bug where developer productivity insights sometimes didn’t display properly based on your subscribed account package.
- Fixed a bug that allowed users to add more code vaults than their account package allowed.
- Fixed a bug where Ada would look at too much data when asked about security issues at the project level, causing her to not respond.
- Fixed a bug where in some cases Ada would use the wrong AI LLM model when explaining or suggesting a fix for a security issue, and throw an error.
- Fixed a bug where comparison reports capped the number of detected open source components at 10, even though more were found — just a display issue in the PDF.
- Fixed a bug where certain characters or symbols in GIT credentials caused the code sync to fail.
- Fixed a bug where Ada’s AI-suggested fixes for security issues weren’t re-generated after a fresh code sync.
- Fixed a bug in our security scanner which didn’t automatically mark issues as fixed if a new scan returned zero results — the auto-triaging wasn’t triggered.
