Fresh off the press. Here's what we've shipped this week.

Easier CLI updates

The Cleotic CLI (0.3.0) can now keep itself up to date:

  • Run cleotic update to check for a new version and choose whether to install it.

  • Run cleotic update --check to check for a release without installing.

  • Run cleotic update --yes to install without confirmation.

  • Use --json for machine-readable results.

During interactive use, Cleotic will also occasionally notify you when an update is available. These checks never run with --json or --no-input, or when output is piped. Set CLEOTIC_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1 to disable updates entirely.

Cleotic MCP upgraded to the 2026-07-28 specification

We’ve completed a major upgrade to Cleotic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. MCP enables compatible AI assistants and agent tools to connect directly to Cleotic, understand the available capabilities and retrieve information on behalf of an authenticated user.

The upgraded server now implements the MCP 2026-07-28 protocol and exposes 27 read-only tools covering projects, prompts, AI responses, citations, visibility analytics, source intelligence and Cleotic documentation. It also provides reusable prompts and resources that help clients understand how to work with Cleotic’s data, rather than requiring every integration to define that context independently.

We also tightened the surrounding protocol boundary, including protected-resource discovery, origin validation, CORS support for MCP-specific headers, method restrictions and consistent authentication challenges. The legacy MCP implementation has been replaced rather than kept alongside the new protocol, giving clients one clear and predictable integration surface.
