What is DatoCMS?
DatoCMS is trading admin theming freedom for a guaranteed readability floor.
The dated feed has been quiet since late April, when the CLI work landed — npx datocms running without setup, and OAuth-based project linking. The live change is undated in this feed: from 25 August, new projects lose the custom admin palette and get only the monochromatic system, which derives every colour from one hue at WCAG AA contrast. Existing projects keep what they have. April also raised the Developer Plan CMA limit, added a plugin scaffold to the starter kits, and turned on antivirus scanning for every Media Area upload.
What is Wazuh?
Wazuh hardens its 4.14 line while 5.0 rebuilds how agents talk to the manager.
Wazuh ships 4.14 patch releases roughly every two to three weeks, and almost all of the content is security hardening: path traversal and command injection fixes, input validation in the cluster code, connection deadlines and memory leak fixes. 4.14.10 also added memory limits for oversized rulesets and queue warnings for the vulnerability scanner. In parallel, 5.0.0 reached its second release candidate on October 30.

DatoCMS
0.0INFRA · APIS
DatoCMS is trading admin theming freedom for a guaranteed readability floor.
◆ Current state
The dated feed has been quiet since late April, when the CLI work landed — npx datocms running without setup, and OAuth-based project linking. The live change is undated in this feed: from 25 August, new projects lose the custom admin palette and get only the monochromatic system, which derives every colour from one hue at WCAG AA contrast. Existing projects keep what they have. April also raised the Developer Plan CMA limit, added a plugin scaffold to the starter kits, and turned on antivirus scanning for every Media Area upload.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern across this window is DatoCMS narrowing the decisions it hands users, and doing it deliberately. Antivirus scanning became automatic rather than optional; the CLI stopped requiring setup; and now admin theming stops being freeform for new projects because editors reported that freeform produced unreadable interfaces. Each of those removes a configuration surface and replaces it with a guaranteed outcome, which is a defensible direction for a CMS whose users are editors rather than the developers who set the project up. The agent-facing work — the Remote MCP Server and Agent Skills — sits on the same axis, giving models a fixed interface rather than a configurable one.
◆ Prediction
Expect the monochromatic system to eventually reach existing projects too, since a quality bar that applies only to new ones leaves the reported problem in place wherever it already exists. When that happens, or whether it will, is not stated here.
Wazuh
5.0INFRA · APIS
Wazuh hardens its 4.14 line while 5.0 rebuilds how agents talk to the manager.
◆ Current state
Wazuh ships 4.14 patch releases roughly every two to three weeks, and almost all of the content is security hardening: path traversal and command injection fixes, input validation in the cluster code, connection deadlines and memory leak fixes. 4.14.10 also added memory limits for oversized rulesets and queue warnings for the vulnerability scanner. In parallel, 5.0.0 reached its second release candidate on October 30.
◆ Where it's heading
5.0 is the real change: agents move to HTTPS for talking to the manager, a new detection engine replaces the 4.x analysis daemon, and every server install becomes a cluster node. The 4.14 branch, meanwhile, reads like a security audit being worked through release by release, which keeps current installs safe while 5.0 settles.
◆ Prediction
More 5.0 release candidates are likely before a final release, and 4.14 patch releases with security fixes should keep coming every few weeks; a 5.0 GA date is not stated in these entries.
