PorticolChangelog
What changed in each release, newest first.
Porticol 0.1.0
Porticol 0.1.0
The first release. One workbench for the protocols an API team sends by hand: HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSocket, SSE, MQTT 3 and 5, raw TCP and UDP, and SOAP 1.1/1.2; collections, environments and secrets; a runner and a CLI; history with masking; team sync with offline grace; Git sync; monitors; and a desktop and web client over the same commands.
Highlights
- No account needed to start. The desktop opens, edits and sends on its own machine; signing in to a team server is for sharing, not for working.
- Secrets stay put. Values are encrypted under a workspace key, held in the OS keychain or a passphrase file, masked in history, and never shown to an agent.
- Team servers and Cloud are the same code. Run it on your own infrastructure under a licence, or use Porticol Cloud.
- Agents use the same collections.
porticol-cli mcpandPOST /api/v1/mcpexpose search, read, environments, send, run, history and OpenAPI import through the Model Context Protocol, read-only by default, with protected environments and every call audited. - Import what you have. Postman, Insomnia, cURL, HAR, OpenAPI, Porticol JSON,
Bruno collections and
.http/.restfiles.
Performance
Measured with scripts/bench/probe.sh on an Apple M4 Pro, macOS 26.4, from five
cold runs: 494 ms to the first interactive window, 107 MB idle RSS, 136 MB with a
5,000-request workspace after a 250 MB response, 29 MB installed. CI fails when a
metric leaves its budget (scripts/bench/budget.json).
Notes
- macOS builds are signed and notarized when the release environment carries the certificate; Windows installers are produced unsigned until a certificate exists.
- The updater reads signed manifests from the stable channel and carries these notes into the update prompt.
Known limits
- The Linux desktop needs
WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1under Wayland with an NVIDIA driver; 0.1.0 offers the switch in Settings. - SCIM and LDAP provisioning are not offered; SAML and OIDC single sign-on are.
- The comparison against Postman, Insomnia, Bruno and Yaak is not in this release's
data yet; Porticol's own numbers are in
site/data/benchmarks.json.
