Added
-
Setup without PHP: every release now contains a Claude Desktop extension (
.mcpb) for macOS and
Windows (one-click install, the API key is entered in Claude Desktop and stored securely), standalone
binaries with PHP built in for macOS, Linux and Windows, a PHAR andSHA256SUMS(JAC-721). -
Release workflow that builds and smoke-tests these files and attaches them to a draft release.
-
German README (
README.de.md) and a language switch in both READMEs. -
README section "Why a PHP server?", CI/license/PHP badges and example questions.
-
Installation guide for Claude Code (
claude mcp add).
Fixed
- HTTPS in the standalone binaries: the server finds the system's CA certificates on Linux
distributions where the static OpenSSL default path is missing (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, openSUSE)
and uses the certificate store on Windows. Regular PHP installations are unaffected.
