2025 was the year of foundation. We built the most efficient, lightweight monitoring agent in the world. 2026 is the year of Ecosystem.

Here is what we are building for Cluster Uptime v2.0, based on your feedback.

1. The Plugin System (Lua Scripting)

Currently, we support HTTP, TCP, DNS, and ICMP checks. But what if you want to monitor a Redis instance? Or a Minecraft server? Or a weird proprietary IoT protocol?

Feature: Scriptable Monitors. You will be able to write a small Lua script directly in the UI:

-- check_redis.lua
local r = redis.connect("10.0.0.5", 6379)
local pong = r:ping()
if pong ~= "PONG" then
return fail("Redis did not pong")
end
return success()

This opens up infinite possibilities without us needing to bloat the core agent.

2. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

For our enterprise users, “Admin” vs “User” isn’t enough. Feature: Granular Permissions.

  • Viewer: Can see dashboards.
  • Editor: Can create monitors.
  • Admin: Can manage users and billing.
  • Team Isolation: Team A cannot see Team B’s monitors.

3. Dark Mode 2.0 & UI Refresh

Engineers work at night. We know. We are engaging a top-tier design agency to revamp our UI. High contrast, accessible colors, and a “Deep Dark” mode that is easy on the eyes during 3 AM incidents.

4. Identifying “Flapping” (AI Lite)

Hysteresis is hard. We are introducing a lightweight statistical model to identify “Flapping” services (Primary/Secondary oscillation) and suppress alerts automatically until the state stabilizes.

Release Date?

All these features are in active development. Expect the Plugin System in Q1 2026.

Thank you for building with us.
