curl joins OSS Scanner, mcp-builder points new servers at TypeScript SDK v2

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Anthropic · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

curl's maintainers enrolled the project in OSS Scanner, and the mcp-builder skill now defaults new TypeScript servers to v2 of the MCP SDK while leaving v1 intact for existing ones.

Update mcp-builder skill: teach v2 of the MCP TypeScript SDK anthropics/skills

by felixweinberger

New TypeScript servers built through the skill are now pointed at the v2 packages of the MCP TypeScript SDK, with a new reference/node_mcp_server_v2.md guide and a note in SKILL.md on choosing between v1 and v2. The v1 guide stays put apart from a pointer to v2, and the reference now warns that the server factory must return a fresh McpServer on every call: a shared instance passes one-at-a-tim...

Enroll curl in OSS Scanner anthropics/oss-scanner

ci: raise PyPI project limit guard to 150 GiB (#1455) anthropics/claude-agent-sdk-python

The publish job's pre-flight check was still pinned to PyPI's old 50 GiB project limit and was rejecting CLI 2.1.311 and 2.1.312 at a projected 50.4 GiB; QUOTA_BYTES now reads 150 GiB, which is what PyPI raised the limit to. THRESHOLD_BYTES moves from a temporary 49.9 GiB to 142.5 GiB, 95% of the new quota, as the config's own comment had instructed once the limit went up.

computer-use-demo: read the system's CA store anthropics/claude-quickstarts

by cj-ant

The computer-use-demo image build now removes the roots listed in ca-store/distrust_ca_roots.sh from the system store and points the CA bundles shipped by Python packages at that store. Python tooling in the demo follows the system trust set instead of whatever each package bundled.

Merge pull request #1203 from martincostello/update-open-telemetry-dotnet-email anthropics/oss-scanner

by Sam Barani
