Redocly vs SuperTokens
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Redocly and SuperTokens — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Redocly vs SuperTokens: at a glance
What is Redocly?
Redocly gives its docs MCP server its own name and public endpoint settings.
Redocly shipped a dense fix cycle across Reunite, its docs framework and the AsyncAPI plugin, mostly around access: 30-day sessions on hosted projects, fixed project lists for restricted members, and invites that no longer demote owners. On October 27 Reunite started saving the project config for Realm Plus builds, so access rules, AI assistant and MCP hide options and publish rules match the live site. @redocly/config 0.68.0 replaces the mcp.docs object with mcp.name, mcp.ignore and mcp.publicEndpoint options.
What is SuperTokens?
SuperTokens patches seven auth advisories and makes SAML IdP-initiated login opt-in by allow-list.
SuperTokens is a self-hostable auth backend that spent the v12 cycle hardening its security surface and extending multi-tenancy. The v12.3.0 canary in September added an append-only activity log for user lifecycle events. v12.0.11 is a security release: SAML replay protection and single-assertion binding, an ACS URL allow-list now required for IdP-initiated logins, tenant-scoped WebAuthn sign-in, a session/unlink race fix and dashboard session expiry checks, with additive schema migrations.

Redocly

Redocly gives its docs MCP server its own name and public endpoint settings.
◆ Current state
Redocly shipped a dense fix cycle across Reunite, its docs framework and the AsyncAPI plugin, mostly around access: 30-day sessions on hosted projects, fixed project lists for restricted members, and invites that no longer demote owners. On October 27 Reunite started saving the project config for Realm Plus builds, so access rules, AI assistant and MCP hide options and publish rules match the live site. @redocly/config 0.68.0 replaces the mcp.docs object with mcp.name, mcp.ignore and mcp.publicEndpoint options.
◆ Where it's heading
The MCP server Redocly generates for docs sites is becoming a configurable product surface of its own, following last week's MCP-URL page actions. Around it, Reunite work stays focused on making permissions and config behave the same in Reunite as on the published site.
◆ Prediction
Expect more MCP and AI assistant options in @redocly/config, with follow-up fixes as Realm Plus projects move onto the Reunite config path.
SuperTokens
2.5INFRA · APIS
SuperTokens patches seven auth advisories and makes SAML IdP-initiated login opt-in by allow-list.
◆ Current state
SuperTokens is a self-hostable auth backend that spent the v12 cycle hardening its security surface and extending multi-tenancy. The v12.3.0 canary in September added an append-only activity log for user lifecycle events. v12.0.11 is a security release: SAML replay protection and single-assertion binding, an ACS URL allow-list now required for IdP-initiated logins, tenant-scoped WebAuthn sign-in, a session/unlink race fix and dashboard session expiry checks, with additive schema migrations.
◆ Where it's heading
Two tracks run in parallel: a stable 12.0 line that keeps closing authentication edge cases, much of it in SAML, and a 12.3 canary that adds stateful features such as the activity log. The new ACS allow-list requirement shows the project is willing to refuse insecure configurations by default rather than leave them to documentation.
◆ Prediction
Expect further 12.0.x security patches and, separately, the 12.3 activity log moving toward a stable release; the entries don't show when it will get a read API.
