What is Meshes.jl?

Meshes.jl ships one pull request at a time, and most of them are geometry correctness

The library releases at a rate of several patch versions a week, each carrying a single merged pull request. The current run is evenly split between performance work - an optimised centroid and measure for planar polygons, further GJK tuning, a neighbour-search refactor - and correctness fixes to the same primitives, including a wrong centroid calculation and PolyArea incorrectly adding inner-ring area.

What is Sanity?

Sanity ships across every package at once, and the agent-facing surface moves fastest.

Sanity releases as a fleet: MCP server, Studio, JavaScript client, Media Library and UI all cut versions within days of each other, and the changelog reads as one stream of package releases. The current window is dominated by two lanes — the MCP server steadily gaining tools agents can call, and a round of modernization breakage in the client libraries (ESM-only, Node 22.12 floor). Studio v6.10.0 now bundles the App SDK, so custom Studio tools can call SDK hooks without wiring their own provider.

Meshes.jl ships one pull request at a time, and most of them are geometry correctness

◆ Current state

The library releases at a rate of several patch versions a week, each carrying a single merged pull request. The current run is evenly split between performance work - an optimised centroid and measure for planar polygons, further GJK tuning, a neighbour-search refactor - and correctness fixes to the same primitives, including a wrong centroid calculation and PolyArea incorrectly adding inner-ring area.

◆ Where it's heading

The pattern of optimising a function and then correcting its definition a release later suggests the core geometric predicates are being systematically revisited rather than extended. This is depth work on a settled API: the same handful of operations getting faster and more numerically defensible, including on non-standard number types like BigFloat.

◆ Prediction

Expect the single-PR cadence to continue through the remaining core predicates, with measure and centroid variants for further geometry types the most likely targets. Nothing in these entries points to new geometry abstractions.

Sanity ships across every package at once, and the agent-facing surface moves fastest.

◆ Current state

Sanity releases as a fleet: MCP server, Studio, JavaScript client, Media Library and UI all cut versions within days of each other, and the changelog reads as one stream of package releases. The current window is dominated by two lanes — the MCP server steadily gaining tools agents can call, and a round of modernization breakage in the client libraries (ESM-only, Node 22.12 floor). Studio v6.10.0 now bundles the App SDK, so custom Studio tools can call SDK hooks without wiring their own provider.

◆ Where it's heading

The MCP server is where the capability surface is actually growing — asset upload, schema discovery, CORS management — each release handing agents another operation that previously needed a human in the dashboard. The library work underneath is consolidation: one module system, one supported Node line, fewer dependencies, and now one SDK shared between Studio extensions and standalone apps. Read together, Sanity is narrowing the number of ways to build against it while widening what an agent can do unattended.

◆ Prediction

Expect the MCP tool list to keep absorbing dashboard operations — deploy, dataset and role management are the obvious remaining gaps — and the ESM-only floor to propagate to the packages that have not taken it yet. The releases are per-package, so a single dated entry rarely tells the whole story of a given week.
