Full changelog

1.2.0 — 2026-05-10

Performance, token optimization, and new protocol analysis tools.

Added

  • QUIC/HTTP3 analysiswireshark_analyze_quic extracts QUIC version, connection IDs, SNI, and HTTP/3 frames
  • WebSocket analysiswireshark_analyze_websocket reports frame types, payload lengths, and masking
  • MQTT analysiswireshark_analyze_mqtt extracts message types, topics, QoS, and client IDs with frequency stats
  • gRPC analysiswireshark_analyze_grpc with HTTP/2 content-type fallback detection
  • Result cache — LRU cache for tshark read-only commands (file mtime + size invalidation, 5-min TTL)
  • Token budget test — CI guard ensuring total tool docstring size stays under 8000 chars
  • Concurrency tests — verify agents and TCP health run phases in parallel
  • Protocol tool tests — coverage for all 4 new protocol tools

Changed

  • Concurrent security audit — 6 independent analysis phases now run via asyncio.gather (~3x faster)
  • Concurrent quick analysis — 7 data fetches run in parallel
  • Concurrent TCP health — 8 tshark checks run via asyncio.gather instead of sequential loop
  • Docstring optimization — all 51 tool descriptions slimmed to 4447 chars total (~1100 tokens)
  • Output format — emoji replaced with text tags ([!]/[W]/[i]/[OK]), ASCII box art removed
  • Stats truncationexpert_info and service_response_time now auto-truncate large results
  • Publish workflow — added contents: read permission and Homebrew tap notification step

Fixed
