A dormant leave-management app returns with an MIT relicense and a hard break from its own API
Jorani is a self-hosted leave and overtime management app built on legacy CodeIgniter PHP. After a three-year gap, v1.0.4 arrives labelled a maintenance release but is anything but conservative: it relicenses from AGPL to MIT, moves the repository to a new organization, and deletes the Basic Auth REST API, the client-side password encryption layer and MySQL 5.7 support. The database schema is untouched, so the disruption is entirely in licensing, packaging and interfaces rather than data.
Teamtailor's Co-pilot is quietly automating the full recruiting pipeline, one trigger at a time.
Teamtailor has expanded well beyond a standard ATS into a platform where AI handles candidate intake, data collection, screening, and stage routing with minimal recruiter input. The Co-pilot layer now covers agentic workflows — requesting missing info, re-screening at any stage, detecting prompt injection in resumes — alongside a fresh MCP integration that opens the platform to external AI orchestration. The candidate surface has also broadened: WhatsApp messaging, group meeting improvements, and onboarding video support show a product filling in every communication and handoff gap.

The database schema is untouched, so the disruption is entirely in licensing, packaging and interfaces rather than data.
The long arc is a small project shedding weight. Releases through 2017 filled in the workflow model — cancellation states, SSO, mandatory rejection comments, a steady stream of translations. Version 1.0.0 in 2020 rebuilt the leave-balance engine and documented an OpenAPI surface, and the two releases since have been almost entirely security and PHP-version compatibility. v1.0.4 continues by removing rather than adding, including the very API 1.0.0 had documented, and folds the old tree under a legacy/ directory — which reads as groundwork for a replacement rather than a destination.
The legacy/ layout and the withdrawn REST API point to a new API and a non-legacy codebase as the next move; the entries don't indicate on what stack, or when.

The candidate surface has also broadened: WhatsApp messaging, group meeting improvements, and onboarding video support show a product filling in every communication and handoff gap.
The pattern across the last six months is consistent: Teamtailor is building toward a recruiting pipeline where the recruiter sets rules once and Co-pilot executes them end-to-end. Each release either expands what Co-pilot can trigger autonomously (information requests, screening re-runs, smart moves) or opens the platform to external agents via MCP. Onboarding and communication features are expanding in parallel, suggesting the product ambition is the full employee lifecycle from application to first week — not just the hiring funnel.
The most likely next move is Co-pilot-driven interview scheduling — the last high-friction manual step before offer — possibly using the MCP channel to coordinate with calendar tools like Google Calendar or Calendly without leaving the platform.
