Revision history for AnyEvent::MCP

        - retry reverse connections only for TCP connection refusal and
          unexpected disconnects; report and stop on other TCP errors or
          TLS handshake/verification failures.
        - force scalar context when checking Mail::IMAPTalk results;
          list context truncated LIST responses and could corrupt SEARCH
          results. Test with context-sensitive IMAP mocks.
        - report HTTPS reverse-connection handshake failures rather than
          silently retrying; send credentials only after verified TLS succeeds.
        - omit pointless mailbox permission dimension for mcp-imap mailboxes.
        - clarify expected OAuth redirect error page and account selection.
        - implement mcp-imap OAuth2 authorization-code login with PKCE,
          human-pasted headless browser redirect, HTTPS token exchange,
          refresh-token persistence/rotation and IMAP SASL XOAUTH2.
          Keep interactive credentials outside MCP tools and argv.
        - omit unnecessary shell quotes in mcp-imap providers commands.
        - expand mcp-imap providers with Thunderbird ISPDB domain search,
          provider-hosted HTTPS autoconfig lookup and ISPDB fallback,
          password-based IMAP alternatives and provider setup instructions;
          continue printing optional OAuth configuration without saving it.

        - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: due to the added user management, existing
          url tokens have been invalidated.
        - add per-downstream --hidden to mcp-multibroker, omitting a
          server's tools from normal discovery while retaining explicit
          list-tools, discover-brokers and call-tool access.
        - number the user management test consecutively as t/27_users.t.
        - tidy Perl import grouping, internal comments and source layout
          in the command-line tools and library modules.
        - stop imposing an IMAP account file mode check; access is governed
          by ordinary filesystem permissions.
        - use the permission engine's literal matching convention for exact
          user identities and test positive permission-scope validation.
        - reject invalid browser WebSocket credentials via the documented
          handshake exception interface, producing one specific warning.
        - apply the same handshake rejection handling to Vim WebSocket
          connections, including peer and invalid-token/path warnings.
        - document user-management scopes and URL examples in command help.
        - add scoped, revocable MCP users with HKDF-derived credentials,
          an implicit global default user, and atomic user management;
          list effective user URLs with --print-url[=USER], also accepting
          --print-urls, without binding the advertised listener port.
        - associate HTTP credentials with per-request users, bind user
          identity to persistent permissions and permission continuations,
          and delegate original users through trusted multibrokers.
        - select the effective connect_user (default: default) for reverse
          MCP, private Vim and browser connections, independently of normal
          authenticated HTTP tool calls.
        - treat empty directory paths as "." in mcp-fs list, find, grep and
          VCS cwd, without accepting empty filenames.
        - support opportunistic HTTP/HTTPS and reverse MCP connections on the
          same listener, TLS certificate/key CLI options, and dual URL discovery;
          support verified HTTPS for outgoing reverse connections.
        - treat idle HTTP disconnects as normal EOF while retaining errors
          for clients disconnecting during request headers or bodies.
        - identify failing MCP connections by client name, remote address
          and connection id, including modern per-request client metadata.
        - trace local multibroker prompt starts, outcomes and cancellations
          with elapsed time to diagnose disappearing permission dialogs.
        - use an 8 MiB default MCP message size across JSONL and HTTP
          clients and servers, allowing large base64 tool requests through
          mcp-multibroker; log server transport errors at warn level
          instead of silently closing connections.
        - load AnyEvent::Log at compile time so its format_time call is parsed
          as a function, fixing activity logging on Perl 5.10.

0.71  Fri 30 Oct 2026 18:01:51 CET
        - make multibroker-spawned children ask for permissions through MCP,
          independently of the multibroker's own permission prompt mode.
        - log VCS backend and a bounded, JSON-quoted preview of filenames for
          vcs-diff, vcs-status and vcs-log.
        - load only core modules in t/00_load.t; optional IMAP dependencies
          are tested separately when available.
        - let the fake bubblewrap test use the host temporary directory on
          systems without /tmp (notably Termux).
        - suppress Perl startup locale warnings in sandbox workers when
          the requested C.UTF-8 locale is unavailable.
        - canonicalize temporary test paths to match mcp-fs on systems with
          symlinked temp directories; diagnose failing filesystem assertions.
        - test SSE notification ordering at client delivery rather than
          server enqueue time, avoiding a network scheduling race.
        - diagnose failing multibroker HTTP integration tests with preflight
          responses, RPC results and bounded server startup diagnostics.

0.7   Fri 30 Oct 2026 14:56:18 CET
        - WARNING: mcp-imap is unfinished and has not been tested against a real IMAP server.
        - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: rules have changed, old rules will be erased.
        - declare the same license terms as Perl itself in distribution metadata.
        - new mcp servers in this release: mcp-http
        - accept optional dimension default matcher for persistent-rule prompts;
        - clarify that mcp-fs exec has private /tmp by default; shared-tmp
          exposes host /tmp and is not needed for ordinary temporary files or IPC.
        - add mcp-fs vcs-log for Git, SVN, CVS and Mercurial, reusing bounded
          output and dedicated permission actions; SVN log receives network
          and SSH-agent grants alongside CVS operations.
          mcp-webbrowser prefers any JavaScript in the current tab, while the
          independent origin dimension remains scoped to the current origin.
        - log mcp-http requests with their method and a sanitized URL preview;
          identify mcp-http/$VERSION in User-Agent unless overridden by the caller.
          Allow generic key=value context in the shared mcp_log_request formatter.
        - silently treat invalid saved permission-rule files as empty, prompting
          instead of aborting broker startup; subsequent saves replace the old file.
        - add mcp-http for arbitrary HTTP methods with URL-scoped approvals,
          caller-managed cookie jars, bounded bodies and text grep/regex/substitution.
          Disable redirects, retries and proxies; verify HTTPS certificates.
        - derive browser permission origins from reported URLs, not a new
          userscript field; keep older browser clients able to execute with
          origin-scoped permissions.
        - accept compatible browser-protocol minor versions; return empty
          operation discovery for 1.0 clients instead of disconnecting them.
          Direct rule saves no longer perform semantic validation.
        - replace special-case subject, origin and workdir permission scopes with
          named dimensions: metadata-driven prompts, generic match.NAME rule keys,
          and engine-enforced matcher choices. Reject old request and rule fields;
          no conversion or backward-compatible rule loading.
        - preserve selected origin scopes when external permission helpers
          forward persistent decisions through native MCP elicitation.
        - add origin-scoped MCP permission rules, selectable independently of
          code/tab scopes; mcp-webbrowser derives browser origins for
          JavaScript and tab operations, with exact, any-port and any-origin
          choices. Existing rules without origins continue to match all origins.
        - use POSIX::uname instead of nonportable hostname -f for the XPCSE
          browser nickname, consistent with HTTP URL wildcard host selection.
        - make form helper test run via explicit ./ path, avoid early HTTP
          timer races, and test filesystem discovery with optional tools absent.
        - report browser protocol rejections through bounded WebSocket close
          reasons; show abnormal disconnects in the userscript console and toast.
        - document browser wire-protocol minor-version compatibility: accept
          compatible older and newer clients without breaking base functionality.
        - remove the obsolete private stdio permission-result bridge from
          mcp-multibroker; use ordinary form elicitation.
        - add per-tab operation discovery and calls to mcp-webbrowser, with
          per-tab routing, ordinary MCP permissions and browser protocol 1.1;
          the userscript initially advertises no extra operations.
        - make the unsandboxed-warning test tolerate diagnostic output from
          non-GNU utility probes (FreeBSD and BusyBox).
        - add mcp-imap with one named password-authenticated account per instance,
          bounded UID search, MIME reads, explicit mailbox/message mutations,
          UIDPLUS-only targeted expunge, forked worker and MCP permissions.
        - propagate XPCSE save response ETags back to Vim session metadata;
          make stale upload HTTP status an editor error.
        - require GNU sed in worker tool discovery; report missing-Perl diagnostics in tests.
        - xpcse: forward Vim's :write! flag through mcp-vim to browser
          uploads, without changing upload behavior yet.
        - recommend rather than require WebSocket modules: only mcp-vim and
          mcp-webbrowser use them; mcp-vim loads them only for browser clients,
          and tests skip optional WebSocket coverage when unavailable.

0.65  Fri 23 Oct 2026 22:41:32 CEST
        - fix mcp-webbrowser userscript title indicator duplicating prefixes on empty titles.
        - use built scripts in make test PATH, avoiding source shebangs and
          accidentally installed helpers in rule management tests.
        - clarify browser execute code wrapper and reject function/symbol return
          values instead of silently converting them to null.
        - fix many bugs in the testsuite.

0.62  Thu 22 Oct 2026 13:32:52 CEST
        - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: mcp_getoptions now returns a hash reference instead of
          a key/value list.
        - Simple accepts server_name/server_version independently of the local
          instance name, leaving server_info as an unmodified protocol override.
        - query multibroker children in parallel for tool and broker discovery,
          preserving tool order and returning partial results after 15 seconds
          instead of blocking on an unresponsive child.
        - accept a missing trailing slash on HTTP MCP endpoint URLs, working
          around Claude's MCP connector wrongly dropping it from the configured URL,
          thus corrupting it.
        - allow omitted ports in reverse extension URLs, defaulting to port 80.
        - fix MCP client/server version fields serialized as JSON numbers in 0.61.

0.61  Thu 22 Oct 2026 08:57:42 CEST
        - resolve bind hostnames via AnyEvent::Socket instead of Socket::getaddrinfo.
        - honor user-selected file permissions and preserve them across replacements.
        - fix permission test fixture grants.
        - fix activity log timestamp formatting on older perl versions.
        - correct multibroker test tool count (including meta-instructions).
        - fix perl 5.12 syntax errors in mcp-fs and mcp-vim.

0.6  Wed 21 Oct 2026 20:43:20 CEST
        - 34k LOC of pure llm madness. but seems to work. yay.
