Agent v1.167.0
July 12, 2026
The agent release provides the following new features:
New features
We added support for Multi-dimensional autoscaling (MDA).
MDA introduces optimization for both Pod resources and the number of replicas running in the cluster.
Before MDA, Pod rightsizing optimized the CPU and memory requests of each Pod; however, workloads may still run more baseline replicas than they actually need, creating additional waste that cannot be addressed through Pod-level optimization alone.
Minimum replica values are often configured conservatively to reduce operational risk and then remain unchanged as workload behavior evolves. As a result, workloads can continue consuming unnecessary compute resources even after CPU and memory requests have been optimized.
By combining Pod rightsizing and Replica optimization, MDA addresses both resource-level and replica-level inefficiencies, continuously aligning workload resources with actual demand across CPU, memory, and replicas.
This means:
Better resource utilization.
Additional cost savings beyond Pod rightsizing.
Smarter autoscaling with minimal manual effort.
For more information, see Multi-dimensional autoscaling.
This release also includes routine maintenance and internal stability improvements.

The agent release provides the following new features, enhancements, and fixes:
New features
These new features were added to the Kompass Pod rightsizing solution:
Pod rightsizing is managed on workloads by applying policies. With policies, you can apply opinionated, goal-driven configurations that adapt rightsizing behavior per workload type and usage pattern.
You can use these built-in policies, or you can create custom policies:Balanced
Cost-focused
Performance-focused
For more information, see Pod rightsizing.
Pod rightsizing now supports the following batch-like workload types:
Jobs
CronJobs
SparkApplication
KEDA ScaledJobs
For more information, see Apply and manage Pod rightsizing for batch-like workloads.
Enhancements
The following enhancement was added:
Backfill data support: When the Insights agent comes back up after a temporary outage, data is backfilled from the VictoriaMetrics database.
Fixes
The following issues were fixed:
Node costs were duplicated in the UI causing cluster costs to be inflated.
ArgoCD misinterpreted Kompass metadata causing frequent resynchs.
