Releases

0.17.3 - 23.05.2026#

Changed#

  • Reworked landing header navigation — replaced old category dropdowns (AI, Analytics, Branding, Widgets, Translation) with 3 direct links (AI, MCP, Skills) plus 2 curated dropdowns: Documentation (Quick Start, Basics, Creating Docs, Custom Domain, AI Translations, FAQ) and Blog (all 5 posts)

Added#

  • Anonymous MCP access: any AI model can now connect to https://docsbook.io/{owner}/{repo}/api/mcp/server without authentication and use get_info, get_doc_graph, and read_doc_sections for PRO+ workspaces
  • Scoped MCP endpoint /{owner}/{repo}/api/mcp/server — connecting to this URL auto-scopes the server to the specified repository
  • Scoped /{owner}/{repo}/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource for OAuth discovery per workspace
  • Every documentation page now includes <link rel="mcp-server"> meta tag so AI models can auto-discover the MCP server from any docs URL
  • llms.txt now includes a full MCP Server section with connect instructions, tool list, and discovery notes

0.17.2 - 23.05.2026#

Added#

  • get_doc_graph now supports format parameter: "toon" (default) returns a compact text tree ~10x smaller than JSON with @canonical/ref syntax that LLMs parse natively; "json" preserves the previous full structured response for programmatic clients

Fixed#

  • Paginate MCP get_doc_graph to avoid hitting the MCP response token limit on large repos (previously a single 110k+ character JSON line blew past the limit and made the tool unusable in Claude). Added page/page_size (default 50), path_prefix, include_headings, include_relations, and include_github_urls flags; relations are only emitted on page=1 to save bytes

0.17.1 - 23.05.2026#

Fixed#

  • Prevent race conditions in monthly usage limits for AI Chat, Translations, and Reindex — concurrent requests could each pass a stale pre-check and push counters past the plan limit (visible as 78/50 pages translated on Pro). Replaced check-then-act with atomic conditional UPDATE ... RETURNING in batchTranslate, /api/ai-chat, and the MCP reindex endpoint
  • Roll back the reserved reindex slot when fetchAndIndexRepo fails so transient errors no longer eat the monthly quota

0.17.0 - 23.05.2026#

Changed#

  • Remove live preview modal from landing — GitHub to DocsBook input now navigates directly to /<owner>/<repo>?preview=true instead of opening an overlay
  • Replace dark-background OG/Twitter image with a landing-style preview — light gradient, "The AI Knowledge Platform" headline, feature badges, and a docs UI mockup — improves appearance when sharing links on X/Twitter

Fixed#

  • Wrap long project names in sidebar to prevent overflow outside the sidebar boundary

Changed#

  • Enable Ask AI button near the page title by default for new workspaces — previously off by default
  • Fix system theme not applying correctly due to shared localStorage key across workspaces
  • Fix docs-proxy route ignoring saved defaultTheme and always falling back to light

Changed (previous)#

  • Rename MCP Server to MCP Source of Truth in Pro+ pricing rows and add a hover ? tooltip explaining the AI-coupled indexing graph
  • Enable Source of Truth by default for Pro+ workspaces — removed the manual toggle from the admin MCP tab
  • Add a Pro+ badge next to Reindex Usage that opens the Source of Truth promo modal on click

Added#

  • 10 new MCP Example Questions in admin (copy brandbook from a URL, change logo, custom domain, translations, social links, AI key, analytics, reindex, read sections); moved the authentication module example to the bottom of the list

0.16.3 - 23.05.2026#

Fixed#

  • Neutralize green styling on "Get Support" button in workspace settings sidebar — now matches the muted look of other navigation items
  • Remove duplicate opengraph-image.tsx inside [[...path]] catch-all route that broke the Next.js build (parent route already handles all path scenarios)

0.16.2 - 23.05.2026#

Changed#

  • Open docs in ?preview=true mode after submitting GitHub URL on /start — newly published documentation now lands directly in Preview Mode

0.16.1 - 22.05.2026#

Added#

  • New /start page replaces the LivePreviewExpanded modal on "Start for free" — logo, GitHub URL input, Sign in with GitHub, email/Discord support links, social icons, hero-style shards background, cascade animations

0.16.0 - 22.05.2026#

Changed#

  • Rework billing model — Pro is now $150 lifetime one-time payment, Pro+ replaces Enterprise as $29/mo subscription with white-label and Source of Truth
  • New AI query limits — Free 0/mo, Pro 200/mo, Pro+ 2000/mo (was 20/1000/unlimited)
  • New translation limits — Free 0/mo, Pro 50/mo, Pro+ 500/mo (was 30/300/unlimited)
  • Existing pro workspaces (legacy $29 one-time) grandfathered as lifetime Pro at no extra cost
  • Existing enterprise workspaces auto-migrated to pro_plus keeping all features

Fixed#

  • Auth redirect loop after GitHub OAuth — stale callbackUrl cookie pointing at a subdomain /connect caused an infinite redirect cycle; NextAuth redirect callback now normalises any subdomain /connect → docsbook.io/connect
  • /connect on a workspace subdomain now redirects to docsbook.io/connect instead of 404
  • ConnectPage now redirects to sign-in when the session cookie is present but invalid/expired, preventing a broken ConnectPicker state
  • Workspace redirect after sign-in always uses APP_DOMAIN instead of the request host header, preventing wrong subdomain redirects
  • Infinite redirect loop for workspaces whose repo is named connect — subdomain middleware no longer intercepts user.docsbook.io/connect as a /connect auth route

Added#

  • Paddle SubscriptionPaymentFailed webhook handler — downgrades workspace to Free and sends Resend email to the owner with payment-update link
  • Subscription management UI in FloatWidget pricing tab — shows current plan, subscription status, next billing date, and Manage subscription button linking to Paddle Customer Portal (Pro+ only)
  • pricing-spec.md in docs/content/setup — source of truth for the new billing model
  • Two-option upgrade layout in AiUpgradeModal and ProUpgradeModal — side-by-side Pro lifetime vs Pro+ monthly cards
  • Subscription metadata columns on workspaces — paddle_subscription_id, paddle_customer_id, subscription_next_billed_at, subscription_status

0.15.2 - 22.05.2026#

Fixed#

  • Show "AI not enabled" message with owner contact link in AiPanel instead of generic error when AI is disabled for a workspace — users now see a helpful message with a link to the project owner's GitHub profile to request enabling the feature

0.15.1 - 22.05.2026#

Added#

  • Animated growth counters in CtaBand — 4 stats (workspaces, pages indexed, countries, AI queries) count up over 6 seconds on scroll-into-view
  • Before→After traffic animation in BentoFeatures analytics cell — visitors climb from 11 to 1,240 and page views from 34 to 8,900 in a 9-second loop
  • Ticket deflection counter above AI chat mock — shows 0→847 tickets saved this month, growing over 6 seconds
  • Concrete numbers in SocialProof tabs — 2,400+ workspaces, 3× more signups, 40% fewer tickets, 15 languages
