What is Froxlor?

Froxlor's bugfix tags ship with nothing but a compare link.

Froxlor is an open-source server administration panel. 2.3.13 is tagged a bugfix release, but its release note contains only a link comparing it to 2.3.12 — no described change. The substantive recent work was the 2.3.11 security release, which fixed a 2FA bypass, DKIM key exposure and acme.sh argument injection.

What is Sanity?

Sanity's MCP server now advertises itself to agents through a server card and llms.txt.

Sanity shipped three MCP server releases in two days. 2.44.0 makes the server discoverable through a /.well-known server card, an HTML or markdown landing page, robots.txt and llms.txt, and cuts CPU per request. 2.43.0 adds an undeploy_schema tool and deprecates workspaceName for schema selection. 2.42.2 fixes validation against deployed schemas and refuses patches that would change a document's _type.

Froxlor vs Sanity: editorial side-by-side

F
Froxlor
DEVOPS
5.0

Froxlor's bugfix tags ship with nothing but a compare link.

◆ Current state

Froxlor is an open-source server administration panel. 2.3.13 is tagged a bugfix release, but its release note contains only a link comparing it to 2.3.12 — no described change. The substantive recent work was the 2.3.11 security release, which fixed a 2FA bypass, DKIM key exposure and acme.sh argument injection.

◆ Where it's heading

The releases that carry real notes are the security ones, and they have been arriving steadily: CSRF tokens on AJAX actions in 2.3.8, a redirect regression reverted in 2.3.9, then the three-issue fix in 2.3.11. The bugfix tags between them publish empty bodies, so the feed alternates between detailed security disclosure and silence. Direction has to be read from the security releases alone.

◆ Prediction

No direction can be read from this release, because the body describes nothing; on the recent pattern the next informative entry will be another security release.

5.0

Sanity's MCP server now advertises itself to agents through a server card and llms.txt.

◆ Current state

Sanity shipped three MCP server releases in two days. 2.44.0 makes the server discoverable through a /.well-known server card, an HTML or markdown landing page, robots.txt and llms.txt, and cuts CPU per request. 2.43.0 adds an undeploy_schema tool and deprecates workspaceName for schema selection. 2.42.2 fixes validation against deployed schemas and refuses patches that would change a document's _type.

◆ Where it's heading

The MCP server is becoming the main way agents read and write Sanity content, and the work has shifted from adding tools to making it safe and findable: guarded patches, accurate safety annotations, full schema lifecycle and discovery metadata. Studio and Manage continue alongside it with speed work and admin features for larger organizations.

◆ Prediction

Expect workspaceName to be removed after the migration period, and more guardrails on write tools such as patch_documents.
