campsismod vs Jackett: at a glance
What is campsismod?
The model layer under Campsis, renamed in step with it and increasingly JSON-addressable.
Campsismod holds the model object layer for the Campsis pharmacometric simulation suite: reading, editing and writing model definitions that Campsis then simulates. Its recent releases track a single programme, adding a JSON route into model objects and then renaming the whole API to snake_case in 1.4.0, a week before Campsis 1.9.0 did the same. Release notes are terse issue lists, so the reasoning behind each change has to be read from the sibling package.
What is Jackett?
Daily tags chasing tracker domain moves, login changes and freeleech detection
Jackett continues to ship a tag most mornings, each one a short auto-generated commit list of indexer definition edits. The newest adds a cookie login variant for HD-Space and captcha-aware login for funfile; the day before was a sweep of domain bumps and download-volume-factor detection corrections across torrenttip, magnetcat, 52bt, torrenteros, tocashare and seedcore. No release in this window touches the application itself.

◆ Current state
Campsismod holds the model object layer for the Campsis pharmacometric simulation suite: reading, editing and writing model definitions that Campsis then simulates. Its recent releases track a single programme, adding a JSON route into model objects and then renaming the whole API to snake_case in 1.4.0, a week before Campsis 1.9.0 did the same. Release notes are terse issue lists, so the reasoning behind each change has to be read from the sibling package.
◆ Where it's heading
This package moves when Campsis needs it to move. The JSON constructor landed here in 1.3.0 and reached Campsis datasets a day later; parameter uncertainty generation was handed down from Campsis in that package's 1.6.0; and the snake_case migration started here before propagating up. That ordering makes Campsismod the place where suite-wide interface decisions are taken first, even though the visible payoff shows up in Campsis.
◆ Prediction
Expect Campsismod to keep absorbing model-level responsibilities that Campsis currently handles, and to extend the JSON mapping to whatever parts of the model object it does not yet cover. The entries give no signal on a 2.0, and with the rename already spent there is little reason to expect one soon.
Jackett
5.0INFRA · APIS
Daily tags chasing tracker domain moves, login changes and freeleech detection
◆ Current state
Jackett continues to ship a tag most mornings, each one a short auto-generated commit list of indexer definition edits. The newest adds a cookie login variant for HD-Space and captcha-aware login for funfile; the day before was a sweep of domain bumps and download-volume-factor detection corrections across torrenttip, magnetcat, 52bt, torrenteros, tocashare and seedcore. No release in this window touches the application itself.
◆ Where it's heading
This is maintenance as a product, and the cadence is the feature. Trackers rotate domains, add captchas, switch to cookie auth or vary their freeleech percentages, and Jackett absorbs each change within a day — Scenetime was added and dropped within days, 720pier removed and then restored by revert. The recurring shift from form login to cookie and captcha handling across sites is the one visible pattern: the definitions are steadily taking on more anti-bot handling.
◆ Prediction
Expect the same daily cadence of definition edits, with more cookie and captcha login variants as trackers tighten access. The entries show no application-level work planned or in progress.
