RaspAP vs Sanity
A side-by-side editorial comparison of RaspAP and Sanity — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
RaspAP vs Sanity: at a glance
What is RaspAP?
RaspAP follows its big VPN release with a security pass on the API and admin login.
RaspAP 3.5.6 in late September merged the Insiders-only features into the public release, and 3.5.9 on 1 November rebuilt VPN handling with WireGuard kill-switch fixes, an uplink watchdog and NetworkManager support. 3.5.10 on 12 November is a hardening release: the REST API now refuses requests without a key and runs as its own system user, reset, update and debug endpoints require POST, OpenVPN and login files are kept private, and admins must change the default password after three logins. It also fixes 802.11n detection and allows 802.11n on 5 GHz.
What is Sanity?
Sanity's MCP server now explains failed validations and stops skipping them.
Sanity made Context Knowledge Bases generally available on November 10, letting agents read datasets, websites and files over MCP. The days since have been follow-up: MCP server 2.46.1 and 2.46.2 return stable error codes, explain incomplete validations and stop writes from skipping schema checks, while the console now shows when each robot token was last used. Media Library made PDF previews zoomable and folder counts in big libraries about seven times faster.
RaspAP vs Sanity: editorial side-by-side
RaspAP
5.0DEVOPS
RaspAP follows its big VPN release with a security pass on the API and admin login.
◆ Current state
RaspAP 3.5.6 in late September merged the Insiders-only features into the public release, and 3.5.9 on 1 November rebuilt VPN handling with WireGuard kill-switch fixes, an uplink watchdog and NetworkManager support. 3.5.10 on 12 November is a hardening release: the REST API now refuses requests without a key and runs as its own system user, reset, update and debug endpoints require POST, OpenVPN and login files are kept private, and admins must change the default password after three logins. It also fixes 802.11n detection and allows 802.11n on 5 GHz.
◆ Where it's heading
After a command-injection fix in 3.5.8 and the large 3.5.9 rework, the project is tightening defaults for exposed installs: private files, authenticated API calls and forced password changes. A small group of contributors now ships most of the changes, and release cadence has picked up from bimonthly to every few weeks.
◆ Prediction
Expect more point releases in the 3.5 line that close review findings and tighten defaults, rather than a new headline feature soon.
Sanity
6.3DEVOPS
Sanity's MCP server now explains failed validations and stops skipping them.
◆ Current state
Sanity made Context Knowledge Bases generally available on November 10, letting agents read datasets, websites and files over MCP. The days since have been follow-up: MCP server 2.46.1 and 2.46.2 return stable error codes, explain incomplete validations and stop writes from skipping schema checks, while the console now shows when each robot token was last used. Media Library made PDF previews zoomable and folder counts in big libraries about seven times faster.
◆ Where it's heading
Sanity is making the agent-facing parts dependable: the MCP server is getting the error codes and validation rules a production client needs. Access visibility for tokens and members follows the same push to let teams audit what automated clients do.
◆ Prediction
Expect more MCP server point releases around validation and Knowledge Base commands, and more usage data on tokens and agents in the console.
