A flat-file CMS with a long CVE history just wired its API up for MCP.
Bludit ships every few weeks, and almost every release carries a security fix: an authentication bypass and arbitrary file upload in 3.18.4, an authenticated RCE via file upload plus .htaccess bypass in 3.20.0, a path traversal in the API files endpoint in 3.21.0, and session invalidation for disabled users in 3.22.0. Around that, the work is editor and dashboard maintenance, theme additions and a plugin hook for injecting editor toolbar buttons.
Statusbrew reworks Compose and approvals around its new Post Groups.
Statusbrew ships near-daily small updates. On October 19 it launched Post Groups, which bundle posts for several profiles into one unit with per-profile content, group-level approval and shared tags. The following week adapted the rest of the app: a Compose toggle between Post Group and separate posts, a Table View with sequential review and group-level approval in Planner, team inbox sections inside projects, and several Reports fixes.

Around that, the work is editor and dashboard maintenance, theme additions and a plugin hook for injecting editor toolbar buttons.
Two threads run in parallel. One is a sustained security cleanup, largely driven by external reports and handled release by release. The other is a quiet repositioning of the API: 3.22.0 improved it specifically to support MCP, which points a file-based CMS at agent-driven authoring. The plugin hook work in 3.20.0 fits the same pattern of opening the editor to programmatic control.
Expect the MCP-facing API work to continue — the initial support arrived as API improvements rather than a documented server, which is the piece still missing.

The product is reorganizing around multi-profile agency work: bulk CSV variables, Smart Crop, Post Groups and group approvals all reduce per-profile repetition. Projects are becoming a shared workspace for guests and clients, now including inbox conversations.
Expect more surfaces (reports, calendars, analytics) to treat Post Groups as one unit, and more guest-facing project sections. The entries don't show a pricing change attached to the feature.
