Introducing the AI toolkit - build a SquaredUp plugin from a single prompt

Aug 18, 2026 By Blog In Squared Up
When we introduced the Low Code Plugin (LCP) framework in February, the premise was simple: if a system has an API, you should be able to build a plugin for it — quickly, with minimal code, and in a way you can share with the community. The "AI-ready" part was deliberate. The framework was designed to work naturally with AI assistants, so the path from idea to working integration would be as short as possible. That design decision is now paying off.

The finance dashboard I actually use, built from CloudZero and Campfire in an afternoon

Aug 17, 2026 By Emily Allen In CloudZero
Every finance person I know lives in the same loop approaching the end of the month, quarter, or fiscal year. Leadership wants to know where the financials will land (most times before the close has occurred). CS wants customer margins. Someone on the People team needs each department’s AI spend for an OKR review, and they need it quickly to make business decisions. Each answer sits in a different tool or a different spreadsheet, and I bounce across all of them several times a day.

Better context, smarter testing: How to give your AI coding agent direct access to k6 docs

Aug 14, 2026 By İnanç Gümüş In Grafana
As testing workflows become more AI-assisted, fast access to accurate documentation matters more than ever. Whether you're writing a new load test, troubleshooting an issue, or having an AI agent generate a script for you, you need reliable guidance that keeps pace with the way you work. But most documentation still lives in a browser. Every time you or your agent needs to verify an API or look up a best practice, you're forced to leave your terminal or editor and interrupt your workflow.

How KPIs lose their meaning and what to do about it

Aug 14, 2026 By Blog In Squared Up
Once you've published more than a handful of KPIs, you eventually need a way to summarize them. A total cost. An overall health status. An organization-wide SLA. Something that lets you answer the big questions without opening ten different dashboards. Summarizing those into a handful of KPIs usually feels straightforward. You add things together, average them, or collapse several statuses into one. The dashboard becomes easier to read, and nothing looks obviously wrong.
