Cobblr 2026.8.0
The first public release of Cobblr, a self-hosted app you shape yourself, for keeping track of things no off-the-shelf app quite fits.
Highlights
Capture first, structure later. A new workspace opens by asking what you want to keep track of. Scan something, or write it down ("3 skeins of blue worsted wool"). Once a few things cluster, Cobblr offers to build the right tracker in a tap and files everything you captured into it.
Scanning that keeps up with you. Plug in a USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner and it works hands-free. Photograph a pile of unrelated things and the inbox asks what to do with them. Live Sort tells you where to put each item as you scan it, and can name new bins itself on an empty workspace.
A print farm cockpit. One Fleet view across every connection, with live nozzle and bed temperatures, embedded webcam feeds, pause and resume, and a cross-machine queue that drips jobs onto whichever printer frees up next. A finished print does not close your task until you confirm the part came out good.
Print farm safety. A printer that just finished is flagged "needs clearing" and skipped by the auto-assigner until you say it is ready, so a fresh print never lands on an occupied bed.
Floor plans that do work. Draw your space to scale, floors as tabs, rooms that zoom. Then scan into a location on the plan, or print a label for it.
Labels, including from your phone. Print straight to a Bluetooth thermal label printer, or to a networked one, in custom sizes down to the millimetre.
Receipts by email. Forward a store receipt and Cobblr parses the line items into a labelled group in your scan inbox, then replies to you in the same thread.
Consumables that track themselves. Give a spool or a cone a capacity and Cobblr keeps a consumption ledger: what drew it down, by how much, and what is left. A print that declares its filament writes a row automatically.
Ask Cobb. The built-in assistant can read and change your workspace, with per-area permissions you set in the chat, and every change it makes is tracked and undoable. Bring your own model through OpenRouter, or teach it answers with no AI at all.
Integrations. Homebox as a live sync connector, Spoolman for filament, and an MCP server so an external AI assistant can read and write your workspace.
Install
Multi-arch images (amd64 and arm64), so a Raspberry Pi runs the same compose file as a server:
ghcr.io/cobblrhq/cobblr-api:2026.8.0
ghcr.io/cobblrhq/cobblr-web:2026.8.0
ghcr.io/cobblrhq/cobblr-db:2026.8.0
ghcr.io/cobblrhq/cobblr-caddy:2026.8.0
stable and latest also point at this release. The setup builder at
docs.cobblr.xyz/setup-builder generates your compose
file and .env; SELF_HOSTING.md is the full guide, including how to get
real HTTPS on a local box (which the camera needs).
