ebc48cb: Transport Mode Flexibility

Release Date: 2025-10-30 10:22:46 UTC

Summary

This release significantly enhances the application's transport layer, introducing dynamic mode switching between stdio and sse via the new MCP_TRANSPORT environment variable. This provides critical flexibility for deployment, particularly optimizing for cloud-native environments like Google Cloud Run while maintaining full compatibility with existing stdio-based integrations such as Claude Desktop. The deploy.sh script has been updated to streamline Cloud Run deployments, and comprehensive documentation has been added to the README.md.

Feature Enhancements

• Dynamic Transport Mode Selection: Introduced the MCP_TRANSPORT environment variable, allowing operators to dynamically switch between stdio and sse transport modes.
  • stdio mode: Continues to serve as the default, ensuring seamless operation with existing integrations like Claude Desktop.
  • sse mode: Provides native support for Server-Sent Events, optimizing the application for Google Cloud Run and other web-based deployments.
• Streamlined Cloud Deployment: The deploy.sh script has been updated to automatically configure MCP_TRANSPORT=sse when deploying to Google Cloud Run, simplifying the deployment process for cloud environments.
• Enhanced Documentation: The README.md has been updated to include detailed information on configuring and utilizing the new transport modes, ensuring clarity for developers and operators.

Fixes

• Transport Layer Limitation: Resolved a functional limitation in the transport layer, enabling robust support for sse mode which was previously unavailable for certain cloud deployment scenarios.

Deployment Instructions

Update Procedure

1. For Google Cloud Run deployments, utilize the updated deploy.sh script, which now automatically configures the MCP_TRANSPORT environment variable to sse for optimized cloud performance.
2. For other web or cloud-native deployments, manually set the MCP_TRANSPORT environment variable to sse (e.g., export MCP_TRANSPORT=sse or equivalent platform-specific configuration) before application startup.
3. Existing stdio-based integrations, such as Claude Desktop, will continue to function without modification as stdio remains the default transport mode.
4. Consult the updated README.md for comprehensive details on configuring and utilizing the various transport modes.

Breaking Changes

None - Full backward compatibility maintained.
