What is Bludit?
A flat-file CMS with a long CVE history just wired its API up for MCP.
Bludit ships every few weeks, and almost every release carries a security fix: an authentication bypass and arbitrary file upload in 3.18.4, an authenticated RCE via file upload plus .htaccess bypass in 3.20.0, a path traversal in the API files endpoint in 3.21.0, and session invalidation for disabled users in 3.22.0. Around that, the work is editor and dashboard maintenance, theme additions and a plugin hook for injecting editor toolbar buttons.
What is Statusbrew?
Small, precise fixes to the inbox and publishing surfaces, shipped almost daily.
Statusbrew publishes granular entries at a near-daily rate, each covering one change with setup steps included. The recent set is split between Engage, the shared inbox — bulk removal of internal tags, conversation counts that stay put during recalculation instead of flashing zero — and publishing, where YouTube audience settings now persist as defaults. Notification preferences were also broken out of a single Watchers group into individually toggleable Mentions, Automations and Channel Health Alerts.

Bludit
0.0MARKETING
A flat-file CMS with a long CVE history just wired its API up for MCP.
◆ Current state
Bludit ships every few weeks, and almost every release carries a security fix: an authentication bypass and arbitrary file upload in 3.18.4, an authenticated RCE via file upload plus .htaccess bypass in 3.20.0, a path traversal in the API files endpoint in 3.21.0, and session invalidation for disabled users in 3.22.0. Around that, the work is editor and dashboard maintenance, theme additions and a plugin hook for injecting editor toolbar buttons.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads run in parallel. One is a sustained security cleanup, largely driven by external reports and handled release by release. The other is a quiet repositioning of the API: 3.22.0 improved it specifically to support MCP, which points a file-based CMS at agent-driven authoring. The plugin hook work in 3.20.0 fits the same pattern of opening the editor to programmatic control.
◆ Prediction
Expect the MCP-facing API work to continue — the initial support arrived as API improvements rather than a documented server, which is the piece still missing.
Statusbrew
6.3MARKETING
Small, precise fixes to the inbox and publishing surfaces, shipped almost daily.
◆ Current state
Statusbrew publishes granular entries at a near-daily rate, each covering one change with setup steps included. The recent set is split between Engage, the shared inbox — bulk removal of internal tags, conversation counts that stay put during recalculation instead of flashing zero — and publishing, where YouTube audience settings now persist as defaults. Notification preferences were also broken out of a single Watchers group into individually toggleable Mentions, Automations and Channel Health Alerts.
◆ Where it's heading
The work targets friction that shows up at volume: teams tagging in bulk and needing to untag in bulk, operators watching counts they cannot trust, publishers re-selecting the same YouTube audience setting on every upload. Alongside it, terminology is being aligned with the API — Board becoming Project in the create and edit dialogs — which is the kind of cleanup a product does once integrations start mattering. Nothing here changes the shape of the product; everything sharpens what is already there.
◆ Prediction
Expect the same daily cadence of narrow Engage and publishing refinements, with more surfaces gaining bulk actions and per-network options that persist as defaults.
