What is CommaFeed?
CommaFeed is patching its way through the attack surface a self-hosted reader inherits
CommaFeed's 7.x line has become a sustained security pass. The newest patch closes Host header injection on the password recovery endpoint and adds a commafeed.password-recovery-public-base-url setting so the email base URL is configured rather than taken from the request. Behind it: local address blocking made secure by default alongside Google Reader API support in 7.3.0, javascript: URLs filtered at parse time in 7.2.1, and SSRF limits on the image proxy in 7.2.0.
What is Document360?
Document360 rebuilt its API for agents; now it's turning the AI inward on authoring.
Monthly point releases on a steady 12.x line, each a themed bundle rather than a fix list. The last three releases rebuilt the developer-facing surface: an interactive API reference with an in-page Try It! console, a ground-up API v3 with OAuth 2.0 and scoped keys, and a Widget 2.0 embedding architecture now rolling out with a migration deadline. Around that, Eddy AI and the MCP server have been gaining governance controls — reader-group restrictions, workflow permissions, usage analytics — more often than new capabilities.

CommaFeed is patching its way through the attack surface a self-hosted reader inherits
◆ Current state
CommaFeed's 7.x line has become a sustained security pass. The newest patch closes Host header injection on the password recovery endpoint and adds a commafeed.password-recovery-public-base-url setting so the email base URL is configured rather than taken from the request. Behind it: local address blocking made secure by default alongside Google Reader API support in 7.3.0, javascript: URLs filtered at parse time in 7.2.1, and SSRF limits on the image proxy in 7.2.0.
◆ Where it's heading
Every release in this stretch closes a path where content or a request from outside the instance was trusted too far - feed URLs reaching internal addresses, proxied images, javascript: links, and now a header shaping an outbound email. That is the checklist of a project being run as a multi-user hosted service rather than a single-user tool, and it follows directly from the 7.0.0 decision to sandbox filter expressions. Feature work continues in parallel but is clearly the smaller half.
◆ Prediction
The remaining untrusted-input surfaces - OPML import and the feed fetcher's redirect handling - are the likely next targets. The pattern of shipping each fix as its own patch release should continue rather than batching them.
Document360
6.3COLLAB
Document360 rebuilt its API for agents; now it's turning the AI inward on authoring.
◆ Current state
Monthly point releases on a steady 12.x line, each a themed bundle rather than a fix list. The last three releases rebuilt the developer-facing surface: an interactive API reference with an in-page Try It! console, a ground-up API v3 with OAuth 2.0 and scoped keys, and a Widget 2.0 embedding architecture now rolling out with a migration deadline. Around that, Eddy AI and the MCP server have been gaining governance controls — reader-group restrictions, workflow permissions, usage analytics — more often than new capabilities.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads run through the year. One makes the knowledge base machine-readable and machine-writable: MCP server, automatic llms.txt, open-an-article-in-ChatGPT-or-Claude, then API v3. The other fences that access with admin controls before enterprise buyers have to ask. The newest release turns the AI inward for the first time — the redesigned Publish dialog puts suggestions and validation in the author's path rather than the reader's, which is a different customer for the same capability.
◆ Prediction
The AI suggestions now sitting in the Publish dialog are the obvious candidate to move into the editor itself, and the advanced v3 endpoints sold as an add-on look like the seed of a higher API tier. The Widget 2.0 forced migration is the near-term execution risk, since it puts required technical work on existing customers to a fixed timeline.
