Highlights include: - MCP v2 Architecture: @mastra/mcp@2.0.0 migrates strictly to MCP revision 2026-07-28, eliminating initialization handshakes and session headers while adopting context.suspend() and context.resumeData with signed continuation states (requestState). - New Vector Backends: Introduced @mastra/azure-ai-search@0.1.0 and @mastra/weaviate@0.1.0 with rich filtering capabilities. - Durable-Agent Snapshotting: Halts default persistence of running checkpoints to prevent storage churn, preserving pending, paused, and suspended states unless recovery.durableAgents is set to 'auto'. - Memory Trimming: Added token-budgeted messageHistory (maxTokens, atMaxRemoveTokens) that trims the oldest context without deleting stored records. - Observability Improvements: Advanced trace queries gain page-based pagination, delta polling, and root-span summary previews across ClickHouse, DuckDB, and PG adapters. - Core Enhancements: Added extensible workspace grep text extensions, resumable storage prune() execution, server-side orderBy for datasets/experiments, and dataset snapshot integrity helpers. - Breaking Changes: Agent Controller streaming message protocol now sends one start event followed by ID-addressed updates and an ID-only end event. @mastra/mcp@2.0.0 removes legacy transport, handshake, and elicitation surfaces.","sponsors":[]}
