smart-mcp-proxy/mcpproxy-go v0.26.0 on GitHub

This release focuses on bug fixes and refinements to isolation settings, the macOS desktop experience, and internal tool handling.

New Features

Personal Edition: Added paperclip goal cockpit specification (045) with agent instruction drafts for enhanced automation workflows
Personal Edition: Exposed resolved isolation defaults with per-field clear functionality in the macOS tray and API, making it easier to manage security settings

Bug Fixes

Personal Edition (macOS): Fixed keyring write permissions for bundled core by properly passing MCPPROXY_KEYRING_WRITE environment variable
Personal Edition (macOS): Removed misleading non-auto-starting LaunchAgent from installer package to avoid confusion about startup behavior
Set explicit annotation hints on all internal tools to improve tool discovery and agent interaction
Made "lethal trifecta" warning opt-in rather than default to reduce alert fatigue (#406)
Personal Edition: Fixed tooltip clipping issue in Web UI where "Scan Now" tooltip was cut off at the right edge of the screen
