With this week's launch of SourceForge Direct Banking — provider-agnostic open banking for BC with six aggregators (Ponto, TrueLayer, Lean, Plaid, Setu, Basiq) — the SourceForge Business Central extension family reaches twelve production releases.
Every extension in the family declares `dependencies: []` in its app.json. There are zero required AppSource dependencies across the twelve. Customers install any combination of them, in any order, and every combination works. Sibling apps compose through runtime-discovered interfaces (ISiblingIntegration, ITaxPack, IBankingProvider, IAIProvider), not compile-time dependency chains. Upgrade paths are safe by construction; AppSource submission is clean by construction.
Nine of the twelve extensions use Anthropic Claude, always with Zero Data Retention and always with the same boundary: rules run first, Claude runs on the residual, and no AI response can post to the ledger without an explicit human accept. Two of the twelve (Retail, Insight) make zero outbound calls of any kind.
The full family is at sourceforge.in/products/business-central-extensions. Roadmap for 2026 focuses on India-specific packs across SpendFlow and Direct Banking, plus additional country coverage in Planning Studio and Global Payroll & HR.
