State of Radicle CI and where it's going: May 2026

This month in Radicle CI, May 2026 This is a monthly newsletter about the current state of Radicle CI, what has happened recently, and near future plans. Current status Radicle CI is in production use. There are several CI nodes, and Lars runs a public one for open source Rust projects at callisto.liw.fi. Radicle CI use metrics I now track Radicle CI use by counting job COBs that reach a public seed node run by Adrian. The data below excludes CI runs on my own CI nodes, to avoid skewing the numbers. I run CI a lot, as part of developing Radicle CI. The data is collected in the job-cob-data repository by the job-cob-counts software. (I've dropped the table with exact numbers until I automate that.) Issues and patches As of 2026-03-16.
