On August 8, 2026, we released mcp-vertex-search-snippets v0.3.1. This update focuses on enhancing the reliability and scalability of the server when deployed in remote environments, ensuring that your Vertex AI Search integrations remain robust as your usage grows.

What’s new

The headline feature of this release is the enablement of Stateless HTTP Transport. When running the server in streamable HTTP mode (using the --http flag), it now leverages the stateless 2026-07-28 MCP protocol.

Why it matters

For users hosting the MCP server as a remote service, maintaining session state can become a bottleneck and a point of failure. By moving to a stateless protocol, v0.3.1 removes the need for the server to track individual sessions between requests.

This change directly translates to:

  • Improved Scalability: The server can more easily handle a higher volume of concurrent requests.
  • Increased Reliability: Reduced state management on the server side means fewer session-related errors and more predictable connection behavior.

Getting Started and Upgrading

Upgrading to v0.3.1 is straightforward and backward compatible. You can get the latest version by:

  • Downloading the pre-compiled binaries from the GitHub Releases page.
  • Running the following command to install via Go: go install github.com/UnitVectorY-Labs/mcp-vertex-search-snippets@latest

Users already utilizing the --http flag will automatically benefit from the stateless protocol improvements.
