What is Komga?
After two years of quiet fixes, Komga puts a whole new web UI in front of users.
Komga's recent history is almost entirely maintenance — archive-format edge cases, EPUB table-of-contents parsing, Kobo and OPDS compatibility, and a long tail of dependency bumps and translations. Release 1.26.0 breaks that pattern by shipping NextUI, a rewritten web interface, in beta and served alongside the existing one from the same server. The old UI remains the default, and the new one is reached from a sidebar link or a /next path, with a published list of what is still missing.
What is MSPbots?
MSP automation aiming at an autonomous ticket lifecycle, reported only through roadmap posts
The feed carries roadmap updates rather than release notes, and each is stored three times. The Q2 2026 roadmap reports AI Ticket Triage reaching general availability, AI Sentiment Max launching, and an App Marketplace going live, all organized around building an autonomous ticket lifecycle. The H2 2025 roadmap shows where that started: AI Ticket Triage in pilot doing automated categorization, priority assignment and routing, plus a redesigned homepage surfacing personalized insights.

After two years of quiet fixes, Komga puts a whole new web UI in front of users.
◆ Current state
Komga's recent history is almost entirely maintenance — archive-format edge cases, EPUB table-of-contents parsing, Kobo and OPDS compatibility, and a long tail of dependency bumps and translations. Release 1.26.0 breaks that pattern by shipping NextUI, a rewritten web interface, in beta and served alongside the existing one from the same server. The old UI remains the default, and the new one is reached from a sidebar link or a /next path, with a published list of what is still missing.
◆ Where it's heading
This is a staged frontend replacement rather than a cutover: two UIs on one web server, a v2 referential API landing in the same release to back the new client, and a hotfix a few hours later for NextUI CSS layers under Tomcat. The backend is simplifying in parallel — RAR5 support moved to plain Java and libarchive was dropped from the Docker image and the tray app, removing a native dependency from the build. Feature work outside the UI stays narrow and format-focused.
◆ Prediction
Expect a run of point releases closing the gaps in NextUI's feature list and hardening the two-UI serving path, with the beta label staying on until parity is reached. A default switch is unlikely before the missing features land.

MSP automation aiming at an autonomous ticket lifecycle, reported only through roadmap posts
◆ Current state
The feed carries roadmap updates rather than release notes, and each is stored three times. The Q2 2026 roadmap reports AI Ticket Triage reaching general availability, AI Sentiment Max launching, and an App Marketplace going live, all organized around building an autonomous ticket lifecycle. The H2 2025 roadmap shows where that started: AI Ticket Triage in pilot doing automated categorization, priority assignment and routing, plus a redesigned homepage surfacing personalized insights.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is clear even through the roadmap format — triage moved from pilot to general availability in roughly seven months, sentiment analysis was added on top, and the App Marketplace suggests third-party extension rather than only first-party features. Autonomous ticket lifecycle is the stated destination, with triage and routing as the first stage of it.
◆ Prediction
Following triage and sentiment, resolution-side automation is the logical next stage of the stated lifecycle, but these are roadmap posts rather than releases, so what actually ships and when is not established by the entries.
