v1.0.9: CLI and Admin in lockstep, 87 plugins, and security always free
v1.0.9 is out. This is the fourth patch in the v1.0 line, and the first release where CLI and Admin ship at the same version number.
What ships in v1.0.9
CLI and Admin lockstep. The CLI (nself-org/cli) and Admin GUI (nself-org/admin) now share version v1.0.9 and will stay in lockstep from here forward. If you run Admin on localhost, it talks to the same CLI version running your stack. No more version skew.
Go-native binary. The CLI moved to a pure Go rewrite at v1.0.0, released 2026-03-29. v1.0.9 builds on that foundation: faster startup, cleaner error messages, and a single static binary for macOS, Linux, and Windows.
87 plugins, plugin-first architecture. The ecosystem shipped with 25 free MIT plugins and 62 paid plugins across 5 product bundles at v1.0.9. The plugin ecosystem has grown since. See current counts at /pricing. Before adding any backend capability, we ask: can this be a plugin? That keeps the core small and the paid ecosystem valuable.
Security is always free. Every security feature in ɳSelf ships in the free tier: RLS, rate limits, JWT auto-rotation, SSRF guard, WAF basics, audit logs, TLS automation. No security feature is paywalled, now or in future releases.
