Summary

AI summary

Removed several tools and their prompts; nextjs_docs now uses bundled docs and browser_eval routes through agent-browser.

Full changelog

next-devtools-mcp is now a thin connector to the Next.js dev server. Tools-only: nextjs_index, nextjs_call, nextjs_docs, browser_eval.

  • nextjs_docs no longer fetches docs over the network — it points agents at the version-accurate docs Next.js bundles at node_modules/next/dist/docs/.
  • browser_eval is now a gateway to the agent-browser CLI (no longer proxies @playwright/mcp).
  • Removed the init, upgrade_nextjs_16, and enable_cache_components tools and their prompts, plus all knowledge-base resources — upgrade/Cache Components workflows now ship as agent skills, and docs ship with Next.js.

See "Migrating from 0.3.x" in the README. Published to npm via OIDC trusted publishing.

Breaking Changes

  • Removed `init`, `upgrade_nextjs_16`, and `enable_cache_components` tools and their prompts.
  • `nextjs_docs` no longer fetches docs over the network; it now points to version‑accurate bundled docs at `node_modules/next/dist/docs/`.
  • `browser_eval` is now a gateway to the `agent-browser` CLI instead of proxying `@playwright/mcp`.
