[0.5.0] - 2026-09-23

Both MCP servers are updated:
  • standard MCP (/v1/spark-api/mcp)
  • ChatGPT MCP (/v1/spark-api/openai/mcp)

Added

  • MCP protocol version 2026-07-28 is now supported on both endpoints. New clients negotiate 2026-07-28 via the server/discover handshake; clients that use the legacy initialize handshake continue to negotiate down to 2025-11-25 and keep working unchanged.
  • tools/list responses now include SEP-2549 cache hints (ttlMs, cacheScope) so clients can cache the tool catalogue between calls.
  • Tool annotations always include idempotentHint and readOnlyHint (previously omitted when unset).

Notes

  • Transport remains stateless HTTP JSON-RPC: no Mcp-Session-Id is issued or required, and every request stands on its own.
  • Existing clients that treat unknown fields as optional need no code changes.

[0.4.1] - 2026-09-16

Both MCP servers are affected:
  • standard MCP (/v1/spark-api/mcp)
  • ChatGPT MCP (/v1/spark-api/openai/mcp)

Changed

  • The server no longer returns an Mcp-Session-Id header on initialize, and each JSON-RPC POST is handled independently. Clients should not send Mcp-Session-Id on subsequent requests and should not rely on server-side session continuity between calls. Continue to follow the standard MCP lifecycle (initialize → notifications/initialized → tools/list → tools/call) on every new connection.
  • chat_gwi / explore_insight_gwi / search / fetch: tool descriptions and server instructions now guide host LLMs to follow a two-step flow for audience-size and universe questions (e.g. “how many people…”, “audience size”, “universe”, “how big is…”) instead of re-prompting the discovery tool for a headcount:
    • Standard MCP: call chat_gwi first to get the relevant insight, then call explore_insight_gwi with the returned insight_id to read the universe size and underlying stats.
    • ChatGPT MCP: call search first to get the relevant result, then call fetch with the returned results[].id to read universe_size and underlying stats.
  • No changes to tool inputs, outputs, or transport behavior — existing clients continue to work; well-behaved host LLMs will start chaining the two calls automatically for universe-size questions.

Fixed

  • list_datasets: returns an empty array instead of an error when the caller has no dataset access. The REST GET /v1/spark-api/datasets endpoint now behaves the same way, responding with HTTP 200 and an empty list.
  • search_audiences: results now include only saved platform audiences (authored, shared, curated) and exclude ephemeral instant audiences, which previously dominated results

[0.4.0] - 2026-07-15

Both MCP servers are updated:
  • standard MCP (/v1/spark-api/mcp)
  • ChatGPT MCP (/v1/spark-api/openai/mcp)

Added

  • search_audiences tool for searching saved/platform audiences by free-text query; optional dataset_codes, exclude_audience_ids, and limit (1–100)

Changed

  • chat_gwi / search: supports optional dataset_codes to query a root dataset together with one or more of its add-on studies (values must belong to the same dataset tree)
  • chat_gwi / search: supports optional docked_audiences to scope insights to platform audience UUIDs (max 10; use IDs from search_audiences)
  • chat_gwi / search: when both dataset_code and dataset_codes are provided, dataset_codes takes precedence and dataset_code is ignored
  • chat_gwi / search: when both dataset_code and dataset_codes are omitted, the default dataset available to the user is used (previously hard-coded to ds-core)
  • list_datasets: returns hierarchical folders and nested dataset nodes so clients can identify valid root/child combinations
  • explore_insight_gwi / fetch: response now includes the origin datasets of the corresponding insight
  • explore_insight_gwi: attribute output now includes Universe Size alongside question, answer, percentage, sample, and index — the estimated number of real-world internet users within the audience
  • fetch: response now includes structured metadata with an attributes array (question, answer, percentage, sample, universe_size, index) plus timeframe_groups, location_groups, audiences, and datasets for the source insight
  • search and fetch now return typed structured results instead of JSON encoded inside content text blocks; clients that already parse the tool result payload need no changes, but clients reading raw text MAY switch to the structured result

[0.3.0] - 2026-07-07

Both MCP servers are updated:
  • standard MCP (/v1/spark-api/mcp)
  • ChatGPT MCP (/v1/spark-api/openai/mcp)

Changed

  • chat_gwi / search: supports optional limit to set the maximum number of insights returned per call (1–20; default 10)

[0.2.0] - 2026-03-11

Added

  • list_datasets tool for listing available GWI datasets; use to discover dataset codes for chat_gwi
  • chat_gwi: optional dataset_code argument to specify which dataset to query; default: ds-core

[0.1.0] - 2025-12-01

Added

  • chat_gwi tool for gathering insights about audiences based on GWI data
  • explore_insight_gwi for exploring detailed information about the insight statistics
  • OAuth2 support for secure authentication

Changed

  • Initial release of the Spark MCP
