Won by storing collections as plain files an agent can edit.

NOT REALLY

why this verdict

Keep it — Anthropic has not replaced it

Anthropic's version overlaps, but does not finish the dev tools job, so this one is still worth keeping open.

A named launch, not a vibe named, unlinked
Open-source and file-based, so agents can read it too. Anthropic, November 25, 2024 — no announcement link recorded yet.
How much of the job it covers not the job editorial call
Parts of it. The job still needs the tool to get finished.
Is there a free way to do it? yes
1 of 1 listed replacements have a usable free tier: Hoppscotch.
What the call is worth nothing to cancel
No paid entry tier tracked, so there is no subscription to cancel.
Reason composed from the fields above missing: announcement linked recorded: free replacement listed missing: two or more escape hatches

The backstory

Bruno keeps API collections as text files in your repository instead of in a vendor cloud. That decision turned out to be perfectly aligned with the agent era: a coding agent can read, edit and version those files directly. Free, local, git-native, and strictly more useful now than before the models arrived.

Escape hatches

1 of 1 replacements have a usable free tier.
