holmesgpt — The AI Toolchain

holmesgpt 0.40.0

Wed, 26 Aug 2026 07:25:05 GMT

HolmesGPT 0.40.0 adds personal skills, per-account skill hierarchy, tcp_check allowlists, and diagnostic-pod target policies. • Requires an allowlist before `tcp_check` probes can reach private networks, blocking SSRF to internal hosts by default. • Adds a diagnostic-pod target policy to prevent SSRF and data exfiltration from pods spawned during investigations. • Adds personal skills and a per-account name-collision hierarchy, so individual users can define skills that don't conflict with shared or global ones. • Validates bash toolset command arguments and redirections — not just the command prefix — closing injection vectors. • Hardens the `kubectl-run` toolset to execute commands without a host shell, eliminating shell injection paths. • Caps oversized error tool results: a 500-character gist is inlined and the full content is spilled to a file. • Surfaces skill titles for UI-added skills in `fetch_skill` results. • Injects `__robusta_user_approved` only into relay-routed remote MCP calls, not all MCP traffic. • Wires Kubernetes-remediation MCP bearer-token auth in the Helm chart. • Updates the GitLab MCP integration to v2.1.46 with a `whoami` health check. • Gracefully retires in-flight conversations on shutdown instead of dropping them. • Removes the experimental Azure SQL toolset. • Removes the MariaDB MCP integration, consolidating to the native MariaDB datasource. Breaking changes: • The MariaDB MCP integration has been removed; deployments using it must migrate to the native MariaDB datasource. • The experimental Azure SQL toolset has been removed; any configuration referencing it will no longer load.
