Crogl 1.2.20 Release Notes

We're excited to announce the release of Crogl 1.2.20! This update introduces instance-wide skill sharing for admins, makes Crogl easier to install across a wider range of environments, smooths out LM and connector configuration, and completes the rename from "Extensions" to "Connectors." We encourage all customers to upgrade.

What's New

  • Skill Sharing
  • Expanded Linux Installer Support
  • Docker Preflight and Remediation
  • Slimmer Installer Prerequisites
  • Unified LLM and Connector Configuration
  • Test Connection for Built-in Connectors
  • Connector API Path Rename

Detailed Changes

Skill Sharing

Admins can now share a skill with every user in their instance. Once a skill has been authored and optimized, a single share action makes it available to the whole team — no more passing zip files around or asking each user to import a copy by hand. This keeps everyone on the same version of a skill as it evolves, so improvements made centrally take effect for every user automatically.

Expanded Linux Installer Support

The Linux installer now runs cleanly across a broader set of distributions and architectures, and adapts its guidance to where Crogl is being deployed. Ubuntu 24.04, Ubuntu 22.04, Amazon Linux 2023, RHEL 9, and AlmaLinux 9 are now supported targets, along with arm64 builds and multi-arch release packaging so you can install on Graviton-class EC2 hosts and arm64 servers without extra work.

Access guidance also adapts to the deployment shape: local VMs default to direct browser access, EC2 installs default to SSH tunnel instructions, and remote installs accept an explicit hostname override so certificates and startup output point at the right address from the start.

Docker Preflight and Remediation

The installer now checks for Docker before it tries to use it, and helps you fix the most common problems instead of failing partway through. On Linux, it can detect, install, and repair Docker, including the Docker group permission issues that frequently block first-run startup. On macOS, it detects when Docker Desktop is missing or not running and walks you through guided remediation, so you don't end up troubleshooting a half-started stack.

Slimmer Installer Prerequisites

We've trimmed several prerequisites that were either no longer needed or created friction on fresh machines. The macOS installer now works with the system curl and no longer requires the Homebrew build, the unused jq runtime dependency has been removed from installer and runtime scripts, and bundled Rauthy has been removed from installer-based deployments.

Unified LLM and Connector Configuration

Configuring an LLM or a connector now looks and behaves the same whether you reach it from the Guided Setup or from Settings later on. Both flows now open the same modal-based configuration UI, so there's nothing new to learn after onboarding.

We've also consolidated "Custom Connectors" tiles into a dedicated section in the Connectors page, removing the duplication that previously appeared under both Case Management Systems and Lookup and Enrichment Systems.

Test Connection for Built-in Connectors

Built-in connectors now have a "Test connection" button on both the onboarding setup pane and the post-onboarding connector detail page, so you can confirm a connector is reachable and authenticated before you rely on it in an investigation.

Connector API Path Rename

The "Extensions → Connectors" rename announced in 1.2.18 now extends to API paths and token scopes. Stored connector data is preserved across the upgrade, but tokens issued with the old scopes will fail authorization until they are reminted. If you have automation or integrations using API tokens, plan to reissue them as part of the upgrade.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed the Cribl connector so client_id is visible and editable after setup.
