⚠️ Breaking Changes & Important Notes
AI Integration Changes
Legacy AI support has been deprecated in favor of the MCP (Model Context Protocol) plugin approach:
- ❌ Deprecated: Direct
--use-ai <model>with LiteLLM integration (will show warnings) - ✅ New Approach: Use
--use-ai mcpto generate coordination prompts for MCP-enabled coding agents - 🔧 Migration: Install the MCP plugin to use AI features with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Aider, or other compatible coding agents
# Old approach (deprecated, will show warnings):
slim apply -b readme -r <repo> --use-ai ollama/llama3.1
# New approach (recommended):
slim apply -b readme -r <repo> --use-ai mcp
# Then copy the generated prompts to your coding agent🆕 What's New
