Note: You should not use this build for any kind of normal use yet. It is mostly for internal testing. Once the PTB branch is stable enough for normal usage, this note will be removed.
MCP server
There is now an MCP server available for XPipe which allows you to perform many actions in an agentic workflow via your favourite MCP client, for example Cursor. The MCP server feature is disabled by default has to be enabled in the MCP settings menu.
Please share your feedback on your experience.
Hetzner cloud
This release introduces support for Hetzner cloud servers via the hcloud CLI tool. You can list all your service automatically and then access them normally as SSH connections. This is the first of hopefully many integrations for cloud providers and will serve as a good experiment.
Network scan
There is now the option to automatically search the local network for any listening SSH servers and add them automatically as new connections. This also works for remote systems and their networks.
You can find the network scan at New -> Network scan.
Host addresses
You can now configure multiple addresses for a host. This allows you to quickly switch between different addresses if needed.
macOS fonts
The fonts on macOS have been updated with the goal of better readability. If you don't like the new font style, you can still select the old one in the appearance settings menu.
Build pipeline
The build pipeline has been reworked. This might result in unexpected issues that were not caught yet.
