What is Miniflux?

A minimal RSS reader that made passkeys the only way in, then went back to polishing the reading experience.

Miniflux ships a release roughly monthly, and the 2.2.19-through-2.3.1 stretch was almost entirely security work: OIDC token signature verification, PKCE state cleanup, SHA1 replaced with HMAC-SHA256 for Google Reader API auth, an OAuth account-binding vulnerability, an open redirect, and a possible SQL injection in dynamically built ORDER BY clauses. The two most recent releases return to product — full-text search on PostgreSQL's websearch_to_tsquery, an expanded API v1, and feed language detection.

What is Teable?

Teable adds Composio integration and Scheduled Routines, pivoting from spreadsheet to agentic workflow platform.

Teable has moved well past its initial positioning as an Airtable alternative. In the past week alone it shipped admin-configured AI model tiers, an AI-powered App Builder with preset prompts, Composio integration for hundreds of third-party apps, and Scheduled Routines for agent task automation. The product is now simultaneously a structured database, an AI chat interface, a scraping platform, and an automation hub.

2.5

A minimal RSS reader that made passkeys the only way in, then went back to polishing the reading experience.

◆ Current state

Miniflux ships a release roughly monthly, and the 2.2.19-through-2.3.1 stretch was almost entirely security work: OIDC token signature verification, PKCE state cleanup, SHA1 replaced with HMAC-SHA256 for Google Reader API auth, an OAuth account-binding vulnerability, an open redirect, and a possible SQL injection in dynamically built ORDER BY clauses. The two most recent releases return to product — full-text search on PostgreSQL's websearch_to_tsquery, an expanded API v1, and feed language detection.

◆ Where it's heading

Two threads run in parallel. The security thread has systematically closed off every authentication path that was not cryptographically strict, culminating in 2.3.0 restricting WebAuthn login to discoverable passkeys only. The product thread is API-shaped: entry ID pagination, bulk starred updates, tag filtering, and a Go client that now exposes the full feed record — all aimed at people driving Miniflux from other software rather than its own UI.

◆ Prediction

The API surface is the area with visible momentum, so the next release most likely extends filtering or bulk operations further. Whether the passkey-only stance loosens to accommodate post-password MFA is the open question these notes raise but do not answer.

7.5

Teable adds Composio integration and Scheduled Routines, pivoting from spreadsheet to agentic workflow platform.

◆ Current state

Teable has moved well past its initial positioning as an Airtable alternative. In the past week alone it shipped admin-configured AI model tiers, an AI-powered App Builder with preset prompts, Composio integration for hundreds of third-party apps, and Scheduled Routines for agent task automation. The product is now simultaneously a structured database, an AI chat interface, a scraping platform, and an automation hub.

◆ Where it's heading

The Composio integration is the clearest directional signal: connecting to hundreds of OAuth apps turns Teable into a workflow automation competitor to Zapier and Make, not just a database tool. Combine that with Scheduled Routines (agent task scheduling with run history) and Admin AI model tiers (centralized model governance for multi-tenant deployments), and Teable is building the infrastructure for enterprise agentic workflows on top of a structured data layer.

◆ Prediction

Composio connection depth will expand rapidly — expect billing around automation runs and connected app counts within 2–3 months. The retired Gmail/Outlook native connections (replaced by IMAP) suggest Teable is offloading email infrastructure to focus on the higher-value workflow and AI layers.
