Executable UDFs are generally available
Executable user-defined functions (UDFs) are now generally available on ClickHouse Cloud across AWS, GCP, and Azure, and are enabled for every organization. Since the public beta, UDFs have gained a native runtime for uploading precompiled, statically linked Rust, Go, C++, or Bun binaries; outbound network access for Python UDFs; a per-process memory limit...
Manage UDFs with the Cloud API and Terraform
You can now manage the full lifecycle of executable UDFs through 12 new Cloud API endpoints. The Terraform provider adds clickhouse_udf and clickhouse_udf_attachment resources in version 3.24.0 and later; both support pinning a UDF version per service. See the announcement and the UDF documentation.
UDF performance metrics in system.query_log
Starting in version 26.6, eight new ProfileEvents expose per-query UDF behaviour in system.query_log, including wall time, pool wait, CPU, memory, and bytes sent through the pipe.
Exactly-once delivery for Kafka ClickPipes
You can now choose exactly-once delivery when creating a Kafka ClickPipe instead of the default at-least-once mode. Recovery deduplicates replayed insert ranges while their deterministic tokens remain in the target table's deduplication window.
Tombstone handling for Kafka ClickPipes
Kafka ClickPipes can now handle tombstone messages: records with a key and a NULL payload. You can delete matching destination rows with lightweight deletes when exactly-once semantics is enabled, or mark tombstones as deleted rows.
Scheduled Chats in ClickHouse Agents (beta)
ClickHouse Agents can now run on a recurring schedule: hourly, daily, on weekdays, weekly, or using a custom cron schedule. Choose the time zone and days, and optionally organize each run in a Project. Manage schedules directly from the ClickHouse Agents sidebar.
Programmatic Tool Calling and in-run Skills for agents
Programmatic Tool Calling lets agents coordinate selected MCP tools through Code Interpreter with loops, branching, retries, and intermediate processing. To use it, enable Code Interpreter and mark tools as Programmatic in Agent Builder. Agents can also create reusable Skills while working and start using them in the same run.
Better management of long-running agent conversations
You can manually compact a conversation when its context gets crowded and see more clearly how much context tool results retain. Background tasks are easier to monitor and stop from the chat header, and supported results are delivered automatically. In the sidebar, you can filter and sort conversations, and pinned items now share one draggable section.
