2    
3 root 1.63 0.82 Fri 06 Nov 2026 15:53:46 CET
4     - add a first-permission-dialog walkthrough to Intro.pod, explaining
5     one-time versus persistent grants, rule scopes and exec stdin risks;
6     correct its description of logical workdir IDs.
7 root 1.62 - add common repeatable -s/--set KEY=VALUE process-local overrides
8     for trusted instance configuration, after program/instance defaults.
9     - key remote mcp-fs host permissions by --host alone, independent of
10     --rsh; add independent local/remote host scopes (this host by
11     default, or all hosts), retaining old unscoped saved rules.
12     Workdir scopes remain plain paths, independent of host.
13     - omit single-choice permission scope selectors from native, YAD and
14     terminal rule dialogs, automatically retaining the sole match in
15     saved rules without broadening their applicability.
16 root 1.60 - log rejected HTTP requests (status 400 and above) with method,
17     status and peer information, without leaking URL tokens; demote
18 root 1.61 ordinary connection/TLS errors to trace.
19 root 1.62 - do not warn on routine GET / requests; keep the normal 404
20     response without exposing a server-identification page.
21     - preserve mcp-vim subprocess stderr when its JSONL initialization
22     fails, instead of hiding the failure behind EOF and SIGPIPE.
23 root 1.57 - bootstrap remote mcp-fs over a short Perl command, streaming the
24     launcher source over stdin. Avoid rsh command length limits and
25     preserve worker input across exec by using exact sysread.
26 root 1.58 - format mcp-fs sandbox grants, tools, trusted configuration keys
27     and permission action classes as individually searchable POD items.
28 root 1.62 - give the mock remote filesystem test its running Perl interpreter
29     explicitly, rather than assuming it is in a fixed Unix PATH.
30     - avoid locale-dependent TCP error strings in reverse-connection tests,
31     and skip mcp-imap provider CLI tests when optional fork modules
32     are unavailable while retaining standalone provider parser tests.
33 root 1.57
34 root 1.56 0.81 Thu 05 Nov 2026 04:51:59 CET
35 root 1.55 - keep OAuth2 tests working without optional Mail::IMAPTalk,
36     IO::Socket::SSL or Authen::SASL; skip only worker-specific checks.
37     - support optional `mount-try.SUFFIX = ro:/path` or `rw:/path` in
38     mcp-fs configuration. Pass these directly as bubblewrap
39     --ro-bind-try/--bind-try for each invocation, without startup path
40     checks, locally and remotely; required mount.* entries are unchanged.
41     - support one remote host per mcp-fs instance with -h/--host and
42     -e/--rsh; resolve remote workdirs and available tools in a single
43     startup probe, then execute existing workers through a binary-framed
44     remote Perl launcher without installing any MCP modules remotely.
45 root 1.56 - use logical absolute pathnames (without resolving symlinks) as compact
46     workdir IDs across hosts; qualify remote permission scopes independently.
47     Named profiles remain shared between instances. Report cached remote
48     VCS markers and remote umask.
49 root 1.55 - reserve -h for application-specific options; --help remains common.
50     - test remote workers, external GNU utilities, permission isolation,
51     shell argument quoting and startup probing using a mock remote shell
52     and bubblewrap, including unsandboxed/auto behavior. Verify matching
53 root 1.56 workdir IDs for identical logical paths across local and remote
54 root 1.55 instances.
55     - make mock remote-agent tests independent of a local SSH_AUTH_SOCK
56     inherited from the test runner (including CPAN Testers).
57     - document --eager when starting mcp-webbrowser through multibroker;
58     defer possible downstream preferences for --eager and --hidden.
59    
60 root 1.53 0.8 Thu 05 Nov 2026 01:52:48 CET
61 root 1.49 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: due to the added user management, existing
62     url tokens have been invalidated.
63 root 1.54 - limit distribution permission normalization to its staging
64     directory, and supply proper CPAN author and abstract metadata.
65 root 1.52 - give shared command-line switches their own reference in
66     Server::Simple; use individually indexed POD items for executable
67     options and application-specific shared-option behavior.
68 root 1.51 - refresh the introductory guide and mcp-imap/mcp-http manuals
69     with first-use workflows, OAuth2 setup, mailbox/search examples
70     and reverse-TLS troubleshooting; correct stale retry documentation.
71 root 1.50 - extend mcp-imap SEARCH filters with recursive AND/OR/NOT, header,
72     text/body, date, size and flag criteria; use explicitly quoted
73     IMAP arguments and bounded filter complexity.
74     - capture deliberately triggered connection errors in test assertions,
75     avoiding noisy successful test runs.
76 root 1.49 - expose IMAP LSUB to inspect subscribed mailboxes, alongside
77     subscribe/unsubscribe; return the same format as LIST.
78     - remove superseded IMAP OAuth provider and pagination prototypes
79     and their obsolete reference tests.
80 root 1.51 - defer outgoing mail submission research (mcp-smtp or mcp-imap)
81     in TODO.md.
82 root 1.48 - retry reverse connections only for TCP connection refusal and
83     unexpected disconnects; report and stop on other TCP errors or
84     TLS handshake/verification failures.
85     - force scalar context when checking Mail::IMAPTalk results;
86     list context truncated LIST responses and could corrupt SEARCH
87     results. Test with context-sensitive IMAP mocks.
88     - report HTTPS reverse-connection handshake failures rather than
89     silently retrying; send credentials only after verified TLS succeeds.
90     - omit pointless mailbox permission dimension for mcp-imap mailboxes.
91     - clarify expected OAuth redirect error page and account selection.
92     - implement mcp-imap OAuth2 authorization-code login with PKCE,
93     human-pasted headless browser redirect, HTTPS token exchange,
94     refresh-token persistence/rotation and IMAP SASL XOAUTH2.
95     Keep interactive credentials outside MCP tools and argv.
96     - omit unnecessary shell quotes in mcp-imap providers commands.
97     - expand mcp-imap providers with Thunderbird ISPDB domain search,
98     provider-hosted HTTPS autoconfig lookup and ISPDB fallback,
99     password-based IMAP alternatives and provider setup instructions;
100     continue printing optional OAuth configuration without saving it.
101 root 1.47 - add per-downstream --hidden to mcp-multibroker, omitting a
102     server's tools from normal discovery while retaining explicit
103     list-tools, discover-brokers and call-tool access.
104 root 1.46 - number the user management test consecutively as t/27_users.t.
105 root 1.45 - tidy Perl import grouping, internal comments and source layout
106     in the command-line tools and library modules.
107     - stop imposing an IMAP account file mode check; access is governed
108     by ordinary filesystem permissions.
109 root 1.44 - use the permission engine's literal matching convention for exact
110     user identities and test positive permission-scope validation.
111     - reject invalid browser WebSocket credentials via the documented
112     handshake exception interface, producing one specific warning.
113     - apply the same handshake rejection handling to Vim WebSocket
114     connections, including peer and invalid-token/path warnings.
115     - document user-management scopes and URL examples in command help.
116 root 1.43 - add scoped, revocable MCP users with HKDF-derived credentials,
117     an implicit global default user, and atomic user management;
118     list effective user URLs with --print-url[=USER], also accepting
119     --print-urls, without binding the advertised listener port.
120     - associate HTTP credentials with per-request users, bind user
121     identity to persistent permissions and permission continuations,
122     and delegate original users through trusted multibrokers.
123     - select the effective connect_user (default: default) for reverse
124     MCP, private Vim and browser connections, independently of normal
125     authenticated HTTP tool calls.
126 root 1.42 - treat empty directory paths as "." in mcp-fs list, find, grep and
127     VCS cwd, without accepting empty filenames.
128 root 1.41 - support opportunistic HTTP/HTTPS and reverse MCP connections on the
129     same listener, TLS certificate/key CLI options, and dual URL discovery;
130     support verified HTTPS for outgoing reverse connections.
131 root 1.39 - treat idle HTTP disconnects as normal EOF while retaining errors
132     for clients disconnecting during request headers or bodies.
133     - identify failing MCP connections by client name, remote address
134     and connection id, including modern per-request client metadata.
135 root 1.38 - trace local multibroker prompt starts, outcomes and cancellations
136     with elapsed time to diagnose disappearing permission dialogs.
137     - use an 8 MiB default MCP message size across JSONL and HTTP
138     clients and servers, allowing large base64 tool requests through
139     mcp-multibroker; log server transport errors at warn level
140     instead of silently closing connections.
141 root 1.37 - load AnyEvent::Log at compile time so its format_time call is parsed
142     as a function, fixing activity logging on Perl 5.10.
143    
144 root 1.36 0.71 Fri 30 Oct 2026 18:01:51 CET
145 root 1.35 - make multibroker-spawned children ask for permissions through MCP,
146     independently of the multibroker's own permission prompt mode.
147 root 1.36 - log VCS backend and a bounded, JSON-quoted preview of filenames for
148     vcs-diff, vcs-status and vcs-log.
149     - load only core modules in t/00_load.t; optional IMAP dependencies
150     are tested separately when available.
151     - let the fake bubblewrap test use the host temporary directory on
152     systems without /tmp (notably Termux).
153     - suppress Perl startup locale warnings in sandbox workers when
154     the requested C.UTF-8 locale is unavailable.
155     - canonicalize temporary test paths to match mcp-fs on systems with
156     symlinked temp directories; diagnose failing filesystem assertions.
157     - test SSE notification ordering at client delivery rather than
158     server enqueue time, avoiding a network scheduling race.
159     - diagnose failing multibroker HTTP integration tests with preflight
160     responses, RPC results and bounded server startup diagnostics.
161 root 1.35
162 root 1.34 0.7 Fri 30 Oct 2026 14:56:18 CET
163     - WARNING: mcp-imap is unfinished and has not been tested against a real IMAP server.
164     - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: rules have changed, old rules will be erased.
165     - declare the same license terms as Perl itself in distribution metadata.
166     - new mcp servers in this release: mcp-http
167     - accept optional dimension default matcher for persistent-rule prompts;
168 root 1.33 - clarify that mcp-fs exec has private /tmp by default; shared-tmp
169     exposes host /tmp and is not needed for ordinary temporary files or IPC.
170 root 1.32 - add mcp-fs vcs-log for Git, SVN, CVS and Mercurial, reusing bounded
171     output and dedicated permission actions; SVN log receives network
172     and SSH-agent grants alongside CVS operations.
173 root 1.31 mcp-webbrowser prefers any JavaScript in the current tab, while the
174     independent origin dimension remains scoped to the current origin.
175 root 1.30 - log mcp-http requests with their method and a sanitized URL preview;
176     identify mcp-http/$VERSION in User-Agent unless overridden by the caller.
177 root 1.31 Allow generic key=value context in the shared mcp_log_request formatter.
178 root 1.29 - silently treat invalid saved permission-rule files as empty, prompting
179     instead of aborting broker startup; subsequent saves replace the old file.
180 root 1.30 - add mcp-http for arbitrary HTTP methods with URL-scoped approvals,
181     caller-managed cookie jars, bounded bodies and text grep/regex/substitution.
182     Disable redirects, retries and proxies; verify HTTPS certificates.
183     - derive browser permission origins from reported URLs, not a new
184     userscript field; keep older browser clients able to execute with
185     origin-scoped permissions.
186     - accept compatible browser-protocol minor versions; return empty
187     operation discovery for 1.0 clients instead of disconnecting them.
188 root 1.29 Direct rule saves no longer perform semantic validation.
189 root 1.28 - replace special-case subject, origin and workdir permission scopes with
190     named dimensions: metadata-driven prompts, generic match.NAME rule keys,
191     and engine-enforced matcher choices. Reject old request and rule fields;
192     no conversion or backward-compatible rule loading.
193 root 1.27 - preserve selected origin scopes when external permission helpers
194     forward persistent decisions through native MCP elicitation.
195 root 1.26 - add origin-scoped MCP permission rules, selectable independently of
196 root 1.30 code/tab scopes; mcp-webbrowser derives browser origins for
197 root 1.26 JavaScript and tab operations, with exact, any-port and any-origin
198     choices. Existing rules without origins continue to match all origins.
199 root 1.25 - use POSIX::uname instead of nonportable hostname -f for the XPCSE
200     browser nickname, consistent with HTTP URL wildcard host selection.
201     - make form helper test run via explicit ./ path, avoid early HTTP
202     timer races, and test filesystem discovery with optional tools absent.
203 root 1.23 - report browser protocol rejections through bounded WebSocket close
204     reasons; show abnormal disconnects in the userscript console and toast.
205     - document browser wire-protocol minor-version compatibility: accept
206     compatible older and newer clients without breaking base functionality.
207     - remove the obsolete private stdio permission-result bridge from
208     mcp-multibroker; use ordinary form elicitation.
209 root 1.22 - add per-tab operation discovery and calls to mcp-webbrowser, with
210     per-tab routing, ordinary MCP permissions and browser protocol 1.1;
211     the userscript initially advertises no extra operations.
212     - make the unsandboxed-warning test tolerate diagnostic output from
213     non-GNU utility probes (FreeBSD and BusyBox).
214     - add mcp-imap with one named password-authenticated account per instance,
215     bounded UID search, MIME reads, explicit mailbox/message mutations,
216     UIDPLUS-only targeted expunge, forked worker and MCP permissions.
217 root 1.21 - propagate XPCSE save response ETags back to Vim session metadata;
218     make stale upload HTTP status an editor error.
219     - require GNU sed in worker tool discovery; report missing-Perl diagnostics in tests.
220 root 1.18 - xpcse: forward Vim's :write! flag through mcp-vim to browser
221     uploads, without changing upload behavior yet.
222 root 1.19 - recommend rather than require WebSocket modules: only mcp-vim and
223     mcp-webbrowser use them; mcp-vim loads them only for browser clients,
224     and tests skip optional WebSocket coverage when unavailable.
225 root 1.18
226 root 1.17 0.65 Fri 23 Oct 2026 22:41:32 CEST
227 root 1.14 - fix mcp-webbrowser userscript title indicator duplicating prefixes on empty titles.
228 root 1.17 - use built scripts in make test PATH, avoiding source shebangs and
229     accidentally installed helpers in rule management tests.
230 root 1.15 - clarify browser execute code wrapper and reject function/symbol return
231     values instead of silently converting them to null.
232 root 1.17 - fix many bugs in the testsuite.
233 root 1.13
234 root 1.12 0.62 Thu 22 Oct 2026 13:32:52 CEST
235 root 1.16 - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: mcp_getoptions now returns a hash reference instead of
236     a key/value list.
237 root 1.11 - Simple accepts server_name/server_version independently of the local
238     instance name, leaving server_info as an unmodified protocol override.
239     - query multibroker children in parallel for tool and broker discovery,
240     preserving tool order and returning partial results after 15 seconds
241     instead of blocking on an unresponsive child.
242 root 1.8 - accept a missing trailing slash on HTTP MCP endpoint URLs, working
243 root 1.10 around Claude's MCP connector wrongly dropping it from the configured URL,
244 root 1.18 thus corrupting it.
245 root 1.7 - allow omitted ports in reverse extension URLs, defaulting to port 80.
246 root 1.9 - fix MCP client/server version fields serialized as JSON numbers in 0.61.
247 root 1.7
248 root 1.6 0.61 Thu 22 Oct 2026 08:57:42 CEST
249 root 1.5 - resolve bind hostnames via AnyEvent::Socket instead of Socket::getaddrinfo.
250 root 1.4 - honor user-selected file permissions and preserve them across replacements.
251     - fix permission test fixture grants.
252     - fix activity log timestamp formatting on older perl versions.
253     - correct multibroker test tool count (including meta-instructions).
254     - fix perl 5.12 syntax errors in mcp-fs and mcp-vim.
255    
256 root 1.3 0.6 Wed 21 Oct 2026 20:43:20 CEST
257 root 1.2 - 34k LOC of pure llm madness. but seems to work. yay.
258 root 1.1
259     0.0 Sat 03 Oct 2026 07:29:39 CEST
260     - original version, an AnyEvent::HTTP clone.
