1 root 1.2 Revision history for AnyEvent::MCP
2    
3 root 1.64 0.83 (unreleased)
4 root 1.67 - use a 15-second HTTP read-inactivity timeout by default, suspended
5     while processing complete requests; respect explicit handle rtimeout.
6     - load MIME::Base64 in the HTTP server itself for encoded modern
7     Mcp-Name headers, without depending on the HTTP client loading it.
8 root 1.66 - log ordinary HTTP 404 responses at trace rather than warn,
9     including GET /; keep other HTTP rejection warnings.
10 root 1.65 - reuse the latest saved per-dimension scope as the next permission
11     rule editor's default where offered, otherwise keep the original
12     conservative choice; native, YAD and terminal forms agree.
13     - handle the common token-only HTTP endpoint in warning logs:
14     redact known tokens without misclassifying unrelated paths.
15     - include bounded, JSON-escaped request paths in rejected HTTP request
16     warnings; omit queries and redact configured and attempted URL tokens.
17 root 1.64 - show captured helper status, stderr and stdout when the permission
18     UI test fails, and report remote file-patch results and file content
19     when the mock remote filesystem test fails (CPAN Testers diagnostics).
20    
21 root 1.63 0.82 Fri 06 Nov 2026 15:53:46 CET
22     - add a first-permission-dialog walkthrough to Intro.pod, explaining
23     one-time versus persistent grants, rule scopes and exec stdin risks;
24     correct its description of logical workdir IDs.
25 root 1.62 - add common repeatable -s/--set KEY=VALUE process-local overrides
26     for trusted instance configuration, after program/instance defaults.
27     - key remote mcp-fs host permissions by --host alone, independent of
28     --rsh; add independent local/remote host scopes (this host by
29     default, or all hosts), retaining old unscoped saved rules.
30     Workdir scopes remain plain paths, independent of host.
31     - omit single-choice permission scope selectors from native, YAD and
32     terminal rule dialogs, automatically retaining the sole match in
33     saved rules without broadening their applicability.
34 root 1.60 - log rejected HTTP requests (status 400 and above) with method,
35     status and peer information, without leaking URL tokens; demote
36 root 1.61 ordinary connection/TLS errors to trace.
37 root 1.62 - do not warn on routine GET / requests; keep the normal 404
38     response without exposing a server-identification page.
39     - preserve mcp-vim subprocess stderr when its JSONL initialization
40     fails, instead of hiding the failure behind EOF and SIGPIPE.
41 root 1.57 - bootstrap remote mcp-fs over a short Perl command, streaming the
42     launcher source over stdin. Avoid rsh command length limits and
43     preserve worker input across exec by using exact sysread.
44 root 1.58 - format mcp-fs sandbox grants, tools, trusted configuration keys
45     and permission action classes as individually searchable POD items.
46 root 1.62 - give the mock remote filesystem test its running Perl interpreter
47     explicitly, rather than assuming it is in a fixed Unix PATH.
48     - avoid locale-dependent TCP error strings in reverse-connection tests,
49     and skip mcp-imap provider CLI tests when optional fork modules
50     are unavailable while retaining standalone provider parser tests.
51 root 1.57
52 root 1.56 0.81 Thu 05 Nov 2026 04:51:59 CET
53 root 1.55 - keep OAuth2 tests working without optional Mail::IMAPTalk,
54     IO::Socket::SSL or Authen::SASL; skip only worker-specific checks.
55     - support optional `mount-try.SUFFIX = ro:/path` or `rw:/path` in
56     mcp-fs configuration. Pass these directly as bubblewrap
57     --ro-bind-try/--bind-try for each invocation, without startup path
58     checks, locally and remotely; required mount.* entries are unchanged.
59     - support one remote host per mcp-fs instance with -h/--host and
60     -e/--rsh; resolve remote workdirs and available tools in a single
61     startup probe, then execute existing workers through a binary-framed
62     remote Perl launcher without installing any MCP modules remotely.
63 root 1.56 - use logical absolute pathnames (without resolving symlinks) as compact
64     workdir IDs across hosts; qualify remote permission scopes independently.
65     Named profiles remain shared between instances. Report cached remote
66     VCS markers and remote umask.
67 root 1.55 - reserve -h for application-specific options; --help remains common.
68     - test remote workers, external GNU utilities, permission isolation,
69     shell argument quoting and startup probing using a mock remote shell
70     and bubblewrap, including unsandboxed/auto behavior. Verify matching
71 root 1.56 workdir IDs for identical logical paths across local and remote
72 root 1.55 instances.
73     - make mock remote-agent tests independent of a local SSH_AUTH_SOCK
74     inherited from the test runner (including CPAN Testers).
75     - document --eager when starting mcp-webbrowser through multibroker;
76     defer possible downstream preferences for --eager and --hidden.
77    
78 root 1.53 0.8 Thu 05 Nov 2026 01:52:48 CET
79 root 1.49 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: due to the added user management, existing
80     url tokens have been invalidated.
81 root 1.54 - limit distribution permission normalization to its staging
82     directory, and supply proper CPAN author and abstract metadata.
83 root 1.52 - give shared command-line switches their own reference in
84     Server::Simple; use individually indexed POD items for executable
85     options and application-specific shared-option behavior.
86 root 1.51 - refresh the introductory guide and mcp-imap/mcp-http manuals
87     with first-use workflows, OAuth2 setup, mailbox/search examples
88     and reverse-TLS troubleshooting; correct stale retry documentation.
89 root 1.50 - extend mcp-imap SEARCH filters with recursive AND/OR/NOT, header,
90     text/body, date, size and flag criteria; use explicitly quoted
91     IMAP arguments and bounded filter complexity.
92     - capture deliberately triggered connection errors in test assertions,
93     avoiding noisy successful test runs.
94 root 1.49 - expose IMAP LSUB to inspect subscribed mailboxes, alongside
95     subscribe/unsubscribe; return the same format as LIST.
96     - remove superseded IMAP OAuth provider and pagination prototypes
97     and their obsolete reference tests.
98 root 1.51 - defer outgoing mail submission research (mcp-smtp or mcp-imap)
99     in TODO.md.
100 root 1.48 - retry reverse connections only for TCP connection refusal and
101     unexpected disconnects; report and stop on other TCP errors or
102     TLS handshake/verification failures.
103     - force scalar context when checking Mail::IMAPTalk results;
104     list context truncated LIST responses and could corrupt SEARCH
105     results. Test with context-sensitive IMAP mocks.
106     - report HTTPS reverse-connection handshake failures rather than
107     silently retrying; send credentials only after verified TLS succeeds.
108     - omit pointless mailbox permission dimension for mcp-imap mailboxes.
109     - clarify expected OAuth redirect error page and account selection.
110     - implement mcp-imap OAuth2 authorization-code login with PKCE,
111     human-pasted headless browser redirect, HTTPS token exchange,
112     refresh-token persistence/rotation and IMAP SASL XOAUTH2.
113     Keep interactive credentials outside MCP tools and argv.
114     - omit unnecessary shell quotes in mcp-imap providers commands.
115     - expand mcp-imap providers with Thunderbird ISPDB domain search,
116     provider-hosted HTTPS autoconfig lookup and ISPDB fallback,
117     password-based IMAP alternatives and provider setup instructions;
118     continue printing optional OAuth configuration without saving it.
119 root 1.47 - add per-downstream --hidden to mcp-multibroker, omitting a
120     server's tools from normal discovery while retaining explicit
121     list-tools, discover-brokers and call-tool access.
122 root 1.46 - number the user management test consecutively as t/27_users.t.
123 root 1.45 - tidy Perl import grouping, internal comments and source layout
124     in the command-line tools and library modules.
125     - stop imposing an IMAP account file mode check; access is governed
126     by ordinary filesystem permissions.
127 root 1.44 - use the permission engine's literal matching convention for exact
128     user identities and test positive permission-scope validation.
129     - reject invalid browser WebSocket credentials via the documented
130     handshake exception interface, producing one specific warning.
131     - apply the same handshake rejection handling to Vim WebSocket
132     connections, including peer and invalid-token/path warnings.
133     - document user-management scopes and URL examples in command help.
134 root 1.43 - add scoped, revocable MCP users with HKDF-derived credentials,
135     an implicit global default user, and atomic user management;
136     list effective user URLs with --print-url[=USER], also accepting
137     --print-urls, without binding the advertised listener port.
138     - associate HTTP credentials with per-request users, bind user
139     identity to persistent permissions and permission continuations,
140     and delegate original users through trusted multibrokers.
141     - select the effective connect_user (default: default) for reverse
142     MCP, private Vim and browser connections, independently of normal
143     authenticated HTTP tool calls.
144 root 1.42 - treat empty directory paths as "." in mcp-fs list, find, grep and
145     VCS cwd, without accepting empty filenames.
146 root 1.41 - support opportunistic HTTP/HTTPS and reverse MCP connections on the
147     same listener, TLS certificate/key CLI options, and dual URL discovery;
148     support verified HTTPS for outgoing reverse connections.
149 root 1.39 - treat idle HTTP disconnects as normal EOF while retaining errors
150     for clients disconnecting during request headers or bodies.
151     - identify failing MCP connections by client name, remote address
152     and connection id, including modern per-request client metadata.
153 root 1.38 - trace local multibroker prompt starts, outcomes and cancellations
154     with elapsed time to diagnose disappearing permission dialogs.
155     - use an 8 MiB default MCP message size across JSONL and HTTP
156     clients and servers, allowing large base64 tool requests through
157     mcp-multibroker; log server transport errors at warn level
158     instead of silently closing connections.
159 root 1.37 - load AnyEvent::Log at compile time so its format_time call is parsed
160     as a function, fixing activity logging on Perl 5.10.
161    
162 root 1.36 0.71 Fri 30 Oct 2026 18:01:51 CET
163 root 1.35 - make multibroker-spawned children ask for permissions through MCP,
164     independently of the multibroker's own permission prompt mode.
165 root 1.36 - log VCS backend and a bounded, JSON-quoted preview of filenames for
166     vcs-diff, vcs-status and vcs-log.
167     - load only core modules in t/00_load.t; optional IMAP dependencies
168     are tested separately when available.
169     - let the fake bubblewrap test use the host temporary directory on
170     systems without /tmp (notably Termux).
171     - suppress Perl startup locale warnings in sandbox workers when
172     the requested C.UTF-8 locale is unavailable.
173     - canonicalize temporary test paths to match mcp-fs on systems with
174     symlinked temp directories; diagnose failing filesystem assertions.
175     - test SSE notification ordering at client delivery rather than
176     server enqueue time, avoiding a network scheduling race.
177     - diagnose failing multibroker HTTP integration tests with preflight
178     responses, RPC results and bounded server startup diagnostics.
179 root 1.35
180 root 1.34 0.7 Fri 30 Oct 2026 14:56:18 CET
181     - WARNING: mcp-imap is unfinished and has not been tested against a real IMAP server.
182     - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: rules have changed, old rules will be erased.
183     - declare the same license terms as Perl itself in distribution metadata.
184     - new mcp servers in this release: mcp-http
185     - accept optional dimension default matcher for persistent-rule prompts;
186 root 1.33 - clarify that mcp-fs exec has private /tmp by default; shared-tmp
187     exposes host /tmp and is not needed for ordinary temporary files or IPC.
188 root 1.32 - add mcp-fs vcs-log for Git, SVN, CVS and Mercurial, reusing bounded
189     output and dedicated permission actions; SVN log receives network
190     and SSH-agent grants alongside CVS operations.
191 root 1.31 mcp-webbrowser prefers any JavaScript in the current tab, while the
192     independent origin dimension remains scoped to the current origin.
193 root 1.30 - log mcp-http requests with their method and a sanitized URL preview;
194     identify mcp-http/$VERSION in User-Agent unless overridden by the caller.
195 root 1.31 Allow generic key=value context in the shared mcp_log_request formatter.
196 root 1.29 - silently treat invalid saved permission-rule files as empty, prompting
197     instead of aborting broker startup; subsequent saves replace the old file.
198 root 1.30 - add mcp-http for arbitrary HTTP methods with URL-scoped approvals,
199     caller-managed cookie jars, bounded bodies and text grep/regex/substitution.
200     Disable redirects, retries and proxies; verify HTTPS certificates.
201     - derive browser permission origins from reported URLs, not a new
202     userscript field; keep older browser clients able to execute with
203     origin-scoped permissions.
204     - accept compatible browser-protocol minor versions; return empty
205     operation discovery for 1.0 clients instead of disconnecting them.
206 root 1.29 Direct rule saves no longer perform semantic validation.
207 root 1.28 - replace special-case subject, origin and workdir permission scopes with
208     named dimensions: metadata-driven prompts, generic match.NAME rule keys,
209     and engine-enforced matcher choices. Reject old request and rule fields;
210     no conversion or backward-compatible rule loading.
211 root 1.27 - preserve selected origin scopes when external permission helpers
212     forward persistent decisions through native MCP elicitation.
213 root 1.26 - add origin-scoped MCP permission rules, selectable independently of
214 root 1.30 code/tab scopes; mcp-webbrowser derives browser origins for
215 root 1.26 JavaScript and tab operations, with exact, any-port and any-origin
216     choices. Existing rules without origins continue to match all origins.
217 root 1.25 - use POSIX::uname instead of nonportable hostname -f for the XPCSE
218     browser nickname, consistent with HTTP URL wildcard host selection.
219     - make form helper test run via explicit ./ path, avoid early HTTP
220     timer races, and test filesystem discovery with optional tools absent.
221 root 1.23 - report browser protocol rejections through bounded WebSocket close
222     reasons; show abnormal disconnects in the userscript console and toast.
223     - document browser wire-protocol minor-version compatibility: accept
224     compatible older and newer clients without breaking base functionality.
225     - remove the obsolete private stdio permission-result bridge from
226     mcp-multibroker; use ordinary form elicitation.
227 root 1.22 - add per-tab operation discovery and calls to mcp-webbrowser, with
228     per-tab routing, ordinary MCP permissions and browser protocol 1.1;
229     the userscript initially advertises no extra operations.
230     - make the unsandboxed-warning test tolerate diagnostic output from
231     non-GNU utility probes (FreeBSD and BusyBox).
232     - add mcp-imap with one named password-authenticated account per instance,
233     bounded UID search, MIME reads, explicit mailbox/message mutations,
234     UIDPLUS-only targeted expunge, forked worker and MCP permissions.
235 root 1.21 - propagate XPCSE save response ETags back to Vim session metadata;
236     make stale upload HTTP status an editor error.
237     - require GNU sed in worker tool discovery; report missing-Perl diagnostics in tests.
238 root 1.18 - xpcse: forward Vim's :write! flag through mcp-vim to browser
239     uploads, without changing upload behavior yet.
240 root 1.19 - recommend rather than require WebSocket modules: only mcp-vim and
241     mcp-webbrowser use them; mcp-vim loads them only for browser clients,
242     and tests skip optional WebSocket coverage when unavailable.
243 root 1.18
244 root 1.17 0.65 Fri 23 Oct 2026 22:41:32 CEST
245 root 1.14 - fix mcp-webbrowser userscript title indicator duplicating prefixes on empty titles.
246 root 1.17 - use built scripts in make test PATH, avoiding source shebangs and
247     accidentally installed helpers in rule management tests.
248 root 1.15 - clarify browser execute code wrapper and reject function/symbol return
249     values instead of silently converting them to null.
250 root 1.17 - fix many bugs in the testsuite.
251 root 1.13
252 root 1.12 0.62 Thu 22 Oct 2026 13:32:52 CEST
253 root 1.16 - INCOMPATIBLE API CHANGE: mcp_getoptions now returns a hash reference instead of
254     a key/value list.
255 root 1.11 - Simple accepts server_name/server_version independently of the local
256     instance name, leaving server_info as an unmodified protocol override.
257     - query multibroker children in parallel for tool and broker discovery,
258     preserving tool order and returning partial results after 15 seconds
259     instead of blocking on an unresponsive child.
260 root 1.8 - accept a missing trailing slash on HTTP MCP endpoint URLs, working
261 root 1.10 around Claude's MCP connector wrongly dropping it from the configured URL,
262 root 1.18 thus corrupting it.
263 root 1.7 - allow omitted ports in reverse extension URLs, defaulting to port 80.
264 root 1.9 - fix MCP client/server version fields serialized as JSON numbers in 0.61.
265 root 1.7
266 root 1.6 0.61 Thu 22 Oct 2026 08:57:42 CEST
267 root 1.5 - resolve bind hostnames via AnyEvent::Socket instead of Socket::getaddrinfo.
268 root 1.4 - honor user-selected file permissions and preserve them across replacements.
269     - fix permission test fixture grants.
270     - fix activity log timestamp formatting on older perl versions.
271     - correct multibroker test tool count (including meta-instructions).
272     - fix perl 5.12 syntax errors in mcp-fs and mcp-vim.
273    
274 root 1.3 0.6 Wed 21 Oct 2026 20:43:20 CEST
275 root 1.2 - 34k LOC of pure llm madness. but seems to work. yay.
276 root 1.1
277     0.0 Sat 03 Oct 2026 07:29:39 CEST
278     - original version, an AnyEvent::HTTP clone.
