Informity AI v0.13.0 is out
v0.13.0
This release introduces an optional MCP Server (Experimental) so trusted AI clients can query your local Informity library, while keeping a strong privacy-first and read-only default posture.
What’s included
- Added MCP Server (Experimental) to Settings for easy client integration.
- Added read-only MCP tools for health, file listing, semantic search, index status, and scan status.
- Kept MCP scope intentionally read-only in this release.
- Improved retrieval quality by filtering out local upload noise and reducing duplicate result entries.
- Simplified setup for external clients with a cleaner standard command flow.
- Added stronger safety controls and operational guardrails around MCP behavior.
- Added dedicated MCP logging so interactions are easier to audit and troubleshoot.
Notes
- Privacy model: MCP is disabled by default and should be enabled only for trusted clients.
- Scope: this release focuses on read-only MCP access; advanced/extended MCP capabilities remain deferred.
- QA status: validated through expanded MCP-focused automated coverage and end-to-end client checks during this release cycle.
