Aug 1, 2025August 2025 focused on delivering security-first defaults, expanding API/client capabilities, and stabilizing collaboration workflows in requestly/requestly. Key features shipped include a Default Blocklist (with mail.google.com by default) for the browser extension, multipart/form-data upload support in the API client (desktop due to browser constraints), and a Popup Configuration with integrated API client for quick requests and cURL imports. GraphQL improvements were delivered through endpoint URL resolution and variable rendering, alongside workspace management and synchronization enhancements to improve local and team data consistency. Notable quality improvements include preserving the initial cURL on ImportRequestModal reopen and fixing GraphQL header handling to prevent data leakage. Development workflow was accelerated by relaxing TS strict null checks, and release notes for version 25.8.21 centralized these improvements.
