upstash/context7 (60,590 stars) shipped @upstash/[redacted] on August 7 on the 2026-07-28 protocol revision. HTTP serving is now stateless for both modern and legacy clients, and Redis-backed sessions are gone, which is a real operational simplification for anyone self-hosting MCP at scale. Same release fixed a nasty auth bug: ctx7 setup now writes a standard Authorization: Bearer header instead of a custom CONTEXT7_API_KEY one, because Codex read the custom name as "no credential configured," fell through to a stale OAuth credential, and failed with invalid_grant before the API key was ever sent.
