Features

Containerized script execution

Collectors, policies, and catalogers can now run inside Docker containers, isolating script execution and making script dependencies reproducible.

The image is chosen per script with the image field, falling back to plugin-level defaults and then to global default_image settings in the Lunar config, with separate defaults for CI collectors, non-CI collectors, policies, and catalogers. Scripts without an image continue to run natively, and it is common to leave CI collectors on native so they can access the CI environment directly.

• Dashboards now track component check scores over time, with a trend sparkline for each component in the components list and a score-over-time chart in the component detail view.

Features

Lunar available in early access

Lunar is now available in early access, with its first public release published on September 3, 2025.

Lunar puts guardrails around the software development lifecycle. Software is organized into domains and components; collectors gather SDLC metadata about each component into its Component JSON; and policies evaluate that metadata to produce pass-or-fail checks.

The early-access platform includes the collection and policy engine with code, cron, and CI hooks; CI pipeline instrumentation for GitHub Actions through the Lunar CI agent (now the CI/CD Tracer); and check results posted to pull requests as commit statuses and comments. It also includes dashboards for components, checks, script runs, and initiatives; a read-only SQL API over the collected data; and a plugin system for reusable collectors, policies, and catalogers, with Bash and Python SDKs.
