# Release Notes - agentic-flow v1.2.0
|
|
|
|
**Release Date:** 2025-10-06
|
|
**Version:** 1.2.0
|
|
**Major Feature:** MCP CLI for User-Friendly Server Configuration
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## 🚀 What's New
|
|
|
|
### MCP CLI Manager - Add Custom Servers Without Code Editing!
|
|
|
|
**The Problem:** Previously, adding custom MCP servers required editing TypeScript code and rebuilding the project.
|
|
|
|
**The Solution:** New CLI commands let end users add custom MCP servers without any code editing, similar to Claude Desktop's approach.
|
|
|
|
### New Commands
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Add MCP server (Claude Desktop style JSON config)
|
|
npx agentic-flow mcp add weather '{"command":"npx","args":["-y","weather-mcp"],"env":{"API_KEY":"xxx"}}'
|
|
|
|
# Add MCP server (simple flag-based config)
|
|
npx agentic-flow mcp add github --npm @modelcontextprotocol/server-github --env "GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_xxx"
|
|
|
|
# Add local MCP server
|
|
npx agentic-flow mcp add my-tools --local /path/to/server.js
|
|
|
|
# List configured servers
|
|
npx agentic-flow mcp list
|
|
|
|
# Enable/disable servers
|
|
npx agentic-flow mcp enable weather
|
|
npx agentic-flow mcp disable weather
|
|
|
|
# Remove server
|
|
npx agentic-flow mcp remove weather
|
|
|
|
# Update configuration
|
|
npx agentic-flow mcp update weather --env "API_KEY=new-key"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Key Benefits
|
|
|
|
- ✅ **No Code Editing** - Add servers via CLI commands
|
|
- ✅ **No TypeScript Required** - Suitable for non-developers
|
|
- ✅ **No Rebuilding** - Changes take effect immediately
|
|
- ✅ **Claude Desktop Compatible** - Same JSON config format
|
|
- ✅ **Automatic Loading** - Servers load automatically in all agents
|
|
- ✅ **Persistent Storage** - Configuration stored in `~/.agentic-flow/mcp-config.json`
|
|
- ✅ **100% Backward Compatible** - No breaking changes
