What is Radarr?

Radarr's maintenance run finally carries a few things users will see

6.4.3.10645 is a fuller release than the recent run: Trusted Networks and hostname validation arrive from the shared *arr base, external IDs are included for movies with links and shown only for the main link group, movies can be searched by original title from the page header, and days of the week use translations. The fix list covers Freebox single-file imports, re-importing an already-imported torrent, invalid languages stored in the database or hit during manual import, and connecting to Jellyfin 12 and later.

What is Wiki.js?

Wiki.js 3 beta.705 ships a built-in MCP server and page ownership with lifecycle rules.

Wiki.js 3 is still marked not for production, but beta.705 adds a built-in MCP server, page ownership with lifecycle rules, a feedback board that reviewers can edit and categorize, and link completion in the markdown editor. PAT scopes get a clearer dialog, which matters now that tokens are how outside clients connect.

Radarr's maintenance run finally carries a few things users will see

◆ Current state

6.4.3.10645 is a fuller release than the recent run: Trusted Networks and hostname validation arrive from the shared *arr base, external IDs are included for movies with links and shown only for the main link group, movies can be searched by original title from the page header, and days of the week use translations. The fix list covers Freebox single-file imports, re-importing an already-imported torrent, invalid languages stored in the database or hit during manual import, and connecting to Jellyfin 12 and later.

◆ Where it's heading

Reliability with third-party services remains the axis the work actually moves on — Freebox, Jellyfin, torrent re-import and language handling are all cases of another system behaving in a way Radarr had not accounted for. The framework-level additions in this release are inherited rather than chosen: Trusted Networks, hostname validation and health-check reasons appear identically in Prowlarr on the same day. The genuinely Radarr-specific additions are small search and metadata conveniences, which is the first time in two months the visible surface has moved at all.

◆ Prediction

Expect the external ID and original-title work to continue as metadata breadth rather than becoming a feature cycle, since that is the only axis on which this application has grown recently. The notes give no sign of a larger change.

6.3

Wiki.js 3 beta.705 ships a built-in MCP server and page ownership with lifecycle rules.

◆ Current state

Wiki.js 3 is still marked not for production, but beta.705 adds a built-in MCP server, page ownership with lifecycle rules, a feedback board that reviewers can edit and categorize, and link completion in the markdown editor. PAT scopes get a clearer dialog, which matters now that tokens are how outside clients connect.

◆ Where it's heading

The v3 betas have moved from editor features (live notes, math, draft recovery) toward governance and machine access: personal access tokens in beta.672, then MCP and page lifecycle rules here. The project is building the controls an organization needs before trusting a wiki to AI clients and to long-lived content.

◆ Prediction

Expect more MCP tools and PAT scope options in the next betas, and lifecycle rules tied into notifications for review and expiry.
