Release Notes

Audience: Reseller-facing summary of shipped VCONIC versions. For the canonical, developer-oriented changelog see CHANGELOG.md.

Versions track the underlying vcon-mcp package. The current published version is read from package.json.

Current version

1.2.0

Highlights

• Predictable vCon contract tools (deterministic shape for AI-client use)

• Strolid sync helper bundled for legacy vCon corpora ingestion

• REST API parity with the MCP tool surface

• Embedded API-key authentication for both REST and MCP HTTP transports

• Build provenance exposed via X-Version, X-Git-Commit, X-Build-Time response headers

• VitePress documentation site

Compatibility

Component	Tested with
Docker Engine	24+
PostgreSQL	14+ (via Supabase)
Node.js (source builds)	20+
MCP protocol	1.x

Known issues

• Cold-start search_vcons_content queries on large corpora can exceed 30s on first run. Steady-state is sub-second once indexes are warm.

• Semantic search requires OPENAI_API_KEY (or LiteLLM) plus a one-time embedding backfill via npm run sync:embeddings.
