Version 3.0.0 - Major Platform Release
Released: February 2026Overview
Version 3.0.0 is a major milestone that transforms plugged.in from an MCP management platform into a comprehensive AI Infrastructure Platform with autonomous agent lifecycle management, embedded vector search, and universal tool orchestration.Key Features
PAP Agent Protocol & Lifecycle Management
- Plugged.in Agent Protocol (PAP): Comprehensive framework for autonomous agent lifecycle management
- Dual-Profile Architecture: gRPC control plane (PAP-CP) + JSON-RPC I/O plane (PAP-Hooks)
- Agent State Machine: NEW -> PROVISIONED -> ACTIVE -> DRAINING -> TERMINATED lifecycle
- Zombie Prevention: Strict heartbeat/metrics separation prevents control plane saturation
- DNS-Based Identity: Verifiable agent identities via
{agent}.{region}.a.plugged.in - Ed25519 Signatures: All control plane messages cryptographically signed
Model Router (Unified LLM Gateway)
- Multi-Provider Routing: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, DeepSeek support
- OpenAI-Compatible API: Drop-in replacement for any OpenAI SDK
- JWT Authentication: Per-agent token generation with 1-year expiry
- Cost Tracking: Per-request cost and latency headers
- Model Aliases:
claude->claude-sonnet-4,gemini->gemini-2.0-flash
Embedded Vector Search (zvec)
- In-Process Vector Engine: No external vector database needed
- HNSW Indexing: High-recall approximate nearest neighbor search
- Multi-Format Document Support: PDF, TXT, Markdown with automatic chunking
- Semantic Search: Natural language queries across your knowledge base
Agent Templates & Marketplace
- Docker-Based Deployment: Kubernetes-native agent deployment
- Template Marketplace: Browse, install, and configure agent templates
- ADL Configuration: Agent Description Language for configurable agents
- Health Monitoring: Integrated health checks and metrics collection
Memory Clipboard System
- Persistent Key-Value Storage: Named and indexed access patterns
- Stack Operations: Push/pop for sequential processing
- TTL Expiration: Automatic cleanup with configurable TTL
- Source Tracking: Track whether entries came from UI, SDK, or MCP
MCP Proxy Enhancements
- Streamable HTTP Transport: Modern HTTP streaming for remote MCP servers
- OAuth 2.1 Integration: Automatic token refresh with 15-minute pre-expiry rotation
- Sandbox Isolation: bubblewrap/firejail for STDIO server sandboxing
- 13 Built-in Static Tools: Discover, search, clipboard, documents, notifications
Official SDKs
- JavaScript/TypeScript SDK (v1.0.1): Full-featured with TypeScript types
- Python SDK (v1.0.1): Sync and async clients with Pydantic models
- Go SDK (v1.0.1): Full type safety with Go 1.24+
Technical Details
- 50+ Database Tables: Comprehensive schema with 3000+ line Drizzle ORM definition
- 6 Languages: English, Turkish, Chinese, Hindi, Japanese, Dutch
- Rate Limiting: Tiered Redis-backed with in-memory fallback
- AES-256-GCM Encryption: For all sensitive configuration fields
Migration Notes
