- Local deployments now upgrade to a new backend version in place, instead of going through a snapshot export and import. Upgrades no longer depend on the size of your local data, and no longer prompt about transferring it.
- The Convex MCP server (
npx convex mcp) now supports the stateless MCP protocol (2026-07-28MCP specification). - Added a new
getServiceTokenfunction that generates service tokens for first-party Convex services. This will be used by the upcoming Convex AI gateway. - Improved the error message when
npx convex exportfails because a snapshot export is already in progress.
