What shipped: The Studio codebase now enforces dead-code hygiene in CI with Knip, followed by removal of unused code and dependencies [13][2][1]. The CLI fixed the long-standing bug where colliding schemas were skipped during pushes [5], made the shadow baseline cache opt-out with default ON [6], and added config pull, workers logs, and no-wait deploys [4]. DuckLake matured: it now pools shared DuckDB instances with multiple connections [7], gains deferred durability in SYNC phase [8], and ETL bumped rust-postgres [9]. Postgres 15.14.1.167 [10] and realtime v2.133.0 [11] also shipped.

Why it matters: Installing the new CLI means you no longer lose schema objects that previously collided during push, and CI will reject Studio PRs containing dead code, forcing cleanup before merge [1]. If you run a Studio fork, expect the new lint gate to surface pre-existing dead exports and dependencies [2][1]. The shadow cache now defaults on, which speeds up local migrations but can be disabled via config [6]. Docs now warn on the pgcrypto cipher change, affecting encrypted columns [12]. The postgrest-typegen fix corrects computed-field matching and trigger views [13].

Also: PostgREST typegen dropped pg-format [13], Studio gained an MCP server UI block and registered the missing pitr_archiving_stale lint [14][15], the MCP get_advisors response groups lints [16], supabase-js v2.113.0 shipped [17], and worker deployments gained exposure control and an --instances flag [18][4].
