Release Date: January 25, 2026

Highlights

  • 🏗️ Tier-Based Governance - Request/response limits enforced per Community / Pro / Enterprise tier

New Features

Tier-Based Request/Response Governance

Every MCP tool now enforces tier-appropriate limits at the request boundary:

  • Community — baseline capabilities, parameter clamping applied
  • Pro — expanded limits, advanced features unlocked
  • Enterprise — full access, compliance reporting

Responses include applied_limits metadata so callers know exactly what was clamped.

Refactor Validation Report

A new compliance matrix (REFACTOR_VALIDATION_REPORT.md) documents every tool against 13 compliance criteria. All 22 tools pass at 100%.

Claude Desktop Installation Guide

INSTALLING_FOR_CLAUDE.md provides a step-by-step guide for connecting Code Scalpel to Claude Desktop via MCP stdio.
