What is Document360?

Document360 is rebuilding its knowledge base to be read by agents as much as by people.

Document360 ships monthly, and the last five releases trace one line: making documentation machine-consumable. The MCP server went from read and write access to full lifecycle control including publishing and workflow, llms.txt generation became automatic, and readers can now copy articles as Markdown or open them straight in ChatGPT or Claude. The August release turns the API reference itself into an interactive console — a rebuilt Try It!, live schema validation, in-console authorization, Eddy AI answering inline — alongside a new Widget 2.0 embedding architecture beginning rollout.

What is Miniflux?

A minimal RSS reader that made passkeys the only way in, then went back to polishing the reading experience.

Miniflux ships a release roughly monthly, and the 2.2.19-through-2.3.1 stretch was almost entirely security work: OIDC token signature verification, PKCE state cleanup, SHA1 replaced with HMAC-SHA256 for Google Reader API auth, an OAuth account-binding vulnerability, an open redirect, and a possible SQL injection in dynamically built ORDER BY clauses. The two most recent releases return to product — full-text search on PostgreSQL's websearch_to_tsquery, an expanded API v1, and feed language detection.

Document360 vs Miniflux: editorial side-by-side

D6.3

Document360 is rebuilding its knowledge base to be read by agents as much as by people.

◆ Current state

Document360 ships monthly, and the last five releases trace one line: making documentation machine-consumable. The MCP server went from read and write access to full lifecycle control including publishing and workflow, llms.txt generation became automatic, and readers can now copy articles as Markdown or open them straight in ChatGPT or Claude. The August release turns the API reference itself into an interactive console — a rebuilt Try It!, live schema validation, in-console authorization, Eddy AI answering inline — alongside a new Widget 2.0 embedding architecture beginning rollout.

◆ Where it's heading

Two audiences are being served out of one content store. The human-facing work — Mermaid diagrams, PDF export controls, multilingual guides, SCIM and JWT provisioning — continues as steady enterprise hygiene, while the agent-facing surface expands faster and with more architectural intent. The API-reference rebuild is the first time that convergence shows up in what a reader sees rather than in an integration.

◆ Prediction

Expect Widget 2.0 to finish its rollout and the Eddy AI inline-answer pattern to spread from the API reference into the wider knowledge base site. Further MCP expansion looks likely given the lifecycle tools already shipped, though these entries don't indicate what is left uncovered.

2.5

A minimal RSS reader that made passkeys the only way in, then went back to polishing the reading experience.

◆ Current state

Miniflux ships a release roughly monthly, and the 2.2.19-through-2.3.1 stretch was almost entirely security work: OIDC token signature verification, PKCE state cleanup, SHA1 replaced with HMAC-SHA256 for Google Reader API auth, an OAuth account-binding vulnerability, an open redirect, and a possible SQL injection in dynamically built ORDER BY clauses. The two most recent releases return to product — full-text search on PostgreSQL's websearch_to_tsquery, an expanded API v1, and feed language detection.

◆ Where it's heading

Two threads run in parallel. The security thread has systematically closed off every authentication path that was not cryptographically strict, culminating in 2.3.0 restricting WebAuthn login to discoverable passkeys only. The product thread is API-shaped: entry ID pagination, bulk starred updates, tag filtering, and a Go client that now exposes the full feed record — all aimed at people driving Miniflux from other software rather than its own UI.

◆ Prediction

The API surface is the area with visible momentum, so the next release most likely extends filtering or bulk operations further. Whether the passkey-only stance loosens to accommodate post-password MFA is the open question these notes raise but do not answer.
