Tracecat
Tracecat's 1.3 alphas keep reworking agent plumbing: tunnels, multi-org MCP, pluggable runners.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Fibery and GanttProject — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Fibery's MCP server can now upload local files, so AI assistants can attach screenshots and images.
Fibery's October 22 release is small: rich text accepts multiple files at once, with new upload and upload-by-link options, and the MCP server lets an AI assistant upload files from the user's computer into file fields or rich text. It follows three heavier releases: AI-built custom integrations, Custom Apps as entity views, and a rebuilt AI agent.
A desktop Gantt tool on a multi-year cadence, tethering itself to its own cloud
GanttProject is a desktop project scheduling application released every one to three years, with occasional build-only tags in between. The most recent feature update, 3.3, added calculated columns driven by SQL expressions in the task table, project-relative week numbers, and a native Apple Silicon package. The intervening tags are packaging work rather than product: restoring Linux and Windows builds, and producing both Intel and Silicon macOS packages.

Fibery is making AI the main builder and operator of the workspace: the agent, Custom Apps, AI-generated integrations and an MCP server that now handles code execution and files. The weekly cadence alternates big AI releases with quality-of-life updates like this one.
Expect the custom-integration preview to widen and the MCP server to gain more write actions; another large AI release is likely within a few weeks given the pattern.

The through-line since 3.0 is a desktop application acquiring a service tail. GanttProject Cloud arrived in 3.0 alongside a bundled Java runtime and an update channel, 3.1 added a connection toggle and pulled a shared human-resource database from the cloud, and 3.2 rewrote the task table with filtering and non-destructive sorting. By 3.3 the table is programmable through SQL expressions. Each release deepens either the cloud tie or the table, which are the two places a desktop planner can still differentiate — but the cadence means any given year may show only a packaging fix.
Expect the next feature release to extend calculated columns or the cloud collaboration surface; on this cadence it is unlikely to arrive quickly, and the entries give no indication of timing.
