Terraform Provider Breaking Changes
Official⏱ Weekly digest, Tuesdays
Provider majors land quietly and then a routine plan wants to destroy half your infrastructure. This watch reads every major release of the providers you pin and flags the ones that touch resources you use, with the upgrade guide in hand before you bump a version constraint.

The prompt
I lead a platform team in Amsterdam managing about 200 Terraform workspaces. Watch for new major versions of the AWS, Cloudflare, and Datadog providers and of Terraform and OpenTofu themselves. Must flag breaking changes to aws_s3_bucket, aws_iam, and cloudflare_record resources specifically, and link the official upgrade guide. State migration requirements are critical, call those out first. Minor and patch releases only matter if they deprecate an argument we'd use.
This is the whole template — the words the wizard analyzes into sources, filters, and a schedule. You review and edit every step before the watch runs.

Critical CVEs in My StackOfficial
Know within hours when a critical CVE lands in something you actually run.
I run Node.js 22, PostgreSQL 16, nginx 1.26, and Ubuntu 24.04 in production. Alert me on any new CVE affecting those exact components with a CVSS score of 8.0 or higher, or anything added to the CISA KEV list regardless of score. Every alert must name the affected version range and the patched version or a workaround. A public proof-of-concept exploit makes it urgent, flag that separately. Ignore advisories for components I don't run.

Frontier Model LaunchesOfficial
Every new frontier model with pricing and context window, the day it ships.
I build LLM products and need to know about every new model release from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, Meta, and Mistral. Must include the API pricing per million tokens and a context window of at least 128k, otherwise it's not relevant to my work. Open-weights releases are a bonus and so are published benchmark comparisons against the previous generation. Skip minor version bumps and region-only rollouts.

React and Next.js Upgrade RadarOfficial
Breaking changes and codemods for your React stack, before you hit them in CI.
My remote product team maintains four apps on Next.js 15 and React 19 with the App Router. Alert me on every new stable major or minor release of React or Next.js that includes breaking changes, deprecations, or changed defaults. Each alert must summarize what breaks and whether an official codemod covers it. RFCs that affect the App Router or Server Components are a bonus. Ignore canary and experimental releases entirely.
