v2.3.0

2.3.0 - 2026-07-22

Model Context Protocol support

• Added open-ocr-cli mcp, a stdio MCP server with dedicated tools for simple
  and template extraction, agentic OCR, and public-URL extraction.
• Added an MCP capabilities resource, structured tool results, cancellation,
  progress notifications, dry runs, and reference-first artifact delivery on
  top of the same validated job service used by the CLI.
• Bundled the MCP server runtime and updated the packaged Open OCR agent skill
  and setup documentation for Codex and other MCP clients.

Machine and Web OCR reliability

• Added URL inputs and Web analysis options to protocol v2, including schema
  validation, mixed-input rejection, a 20-URL request limit, and explicit
  capability advertisement.
• Routed machine and MCP URL work through the shared Web OCR service so dry
  runs, retries, usage accounting, delivery, progress, and typed failures stay
  consistent across terminal and agent integrations.
• Centralized provider runtime and retry policy handling, extended retries to
  Web OCR, added doctor --check-credentials, and made no-argument CLI calls
  print deterministic help instead of opening an interactive prompt.
• Refreshed the root and npm documentation around installation, providers,
  automation, MCP setup, credential hygiene, and the explicit interactive
  command.
