Wakapi vs Ever Teams: at a glance
What is Wakapi?
Wakapi tightens API key scope and fixes double-counted AI agent time.
Wakapi's 2.18 line opened with security and data fixes: API keys now authorize only /api endpoints (a breaking change), permission checks on the filtered stats endpoint were fixed, and AI agent thinking time was being counted twice, which needs summary regeneration to correct. 2.18.1 fixed slow SQLite charts and an unresponsive server during aggregation, and 2.18.2 adds a heartbeats index that can take hours to build on large tables.
What is Ever Teams?
Ever Teams tags dozens of versions a day; most are fixes and test changes.
Ever Teams tags several releases a day. On 12 November 0.196 added a Jira Cloud integration section, timer notes and a Workspace settings page, and 0.197 added a due-date calendar, drag-to-reschedule and a Table layout for team tasks. The releases tagged around midnight on 13 November are small: a dismissable newsletter card, spelling-list and test fixes, a dependency bump, Docs export fixes, and in 0.199.0 a keyboard shortcut to assign tasks.
Wakapi vs Ever Teams: editorial side-by-side
Wakapi
5.0PM
Wakapi tightens API key scope and fixes double-counted AI agent time.
◆ Current state
Wakapi's 2.18 line opened with security and data fixes: API keys now authorize only /api endpoints (a breaking change), permission checks on the filtered stats endpoint were fixed, and AI agent thinking time was being counted twice, which needs summary regeneration to correct. 2.18.1 fixed slow SQLite charts and an unresponsive server during aggregation, and 2.18.2 adds a heartbeats index that can take hours to build on large tables.
◆ Where it's heading
Identity and access remain the theme: OIDC login, OIDC-only mode, multiple API keys, the critical auth bypass fix in 2.17.6, and now narrower key scope. Performance work for large heartbeat tables is emerging alongside it. Release notes are still often bare issue numbers.
◆ Prediction
Expect 2.18.x patches addressing database migrations, given the MariaDB failure noted in 2.18.1; the notes don't show what a 2.19 would contain.
Ever Teams tags dozens of versions a day; most are fixes and test changes.
◆ Current state
Ever Teams tags several releases a day. On 12 November 0.196 added a Jira Cloud integration section, timer notes and a Workspace settings page, and 0.197 added a due-date calendar, drag-to-reschedule and a Table layout for team tasks. The releases tagged around midnight on 13 November are small: a dismissable newsletter card, spelling-list and test fixes, a dependency bump, Docs export fixes, and in 0.199.0 a keyboard shortcut to assign tasks.
◆ Where it's heading
The project ships through an automated release loop that tags every merged change, so version numbers say little about scope. Real features still arrive every day or two, aimed at task views, time tracking and integrations with other project tools.
◆ Prediction
Expect the version count to keep climbing quickly, with the occasional release adding a task view or integration among many fix-only tags.
