Fibery vs Vikunja: at a glance
What is Fibery?
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.
What is Vikunja?
Vikunja crossed the v1.0 finish line and pivoted hard into security hardening.
Vikunja shipped two v1.0 release candidates through late 2025 and early 2026, then jumped to a v2 series whose first widely-tagged point release, v2.2.1, is dominated by security work. The latest release patches multiple SSRF and IDOR vulnerabilities, enforces disabled/locked-account semantics across every auth surface (OIDC, API tokens, CalDAV, LDAP), and adds a shared SSRF-safe HTTP client that webhooks and migrations now route through. User-facing feature work has slowed; the visible energy is in plumbing and audit cleanup.

Fibery
7.5PM
Fibery's MCP server can now upload local files, so AI assistants can attach screenshots and images.
◆ Current state
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.
◆ Where it's heading
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.
◆ Prediction
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.
Vikunja
0.0PM
Vikunja crossed the v1.0 finish line and pivoted hard into security hardening.
◆ Current state
Vikunja shipped two v1.0 release candidates through late 2025 and early 2026, then jumped to a v2 series whose first widely-tagged point release, v2.2.1, is dominated by security work. The latest release patches multiple SSRF and IDOR vulnerabilities, enforces disabled/locked-account semantics across every auth surface (OIDC, API tokens, CalDAV, LDAP), and adds a shared SSRF-safe HTTP client that webhooks and migrations now route through. User-facing feature work has slowed; the visible energy is in plumbing and audit cleanup.
◆ Where it's heading
The arc moves from feature-completion (S3 storage, drag-and-drop project moves, hover previews in late 2025) toward platform credibility — closing security gaps a self-hosted task tool needs to clear before serious team adoption. The rapid version-number jump from v1.0.0-rc4 to v2.2.1 in two months suggests v1.0 shipped and the team tagged a v2 line aimed at addressing accumulated authz debt. Expect the next several releases to keep the security-first posture rather than return to a feature push.
◆ Prediction
The next release will likely continue closing remaining authz edges (more IDOR audits, additional credential-stripping in API responses) and bundle a translations and dependency sweep. A user-facing feature push probably waits until the security work plateaus.
