Model Context Protocol
The most significant change of this release is MCP support.
An MCP server, short for Model Context Protocol server, is a lightweight program that exposes specific capabilities to AI models via a standardized protocol, enabling AI to interact with external data sources and tools.
MCP servers allows you to extend BoltAI's capabilities with custom tools and commands.
To learn more about using MCP servers in BoltAI, read more at https://boltai.com/docs/plugins/mcp-servers
New AI Providers
BoltAI now supports 2 new AI service providers: GitHub Copilot* and Jina DeepSearch
*
Note
: an active Copilot subscription is required
OpenAI's new models
This release added support for latest models: o3, o4-mini and GPT-4.1 model family.
Note that to stream o3 model, you will need to verify your org. Alternatively, you can disable streaming for o3 in
Settings > Advanced > Feature Flags

v1.33.0

CleanShot 2025-02-26 at 08
  • New:
    Added support for Claude 3.7 Sonnet
  • Improved:
    Added support for reasoning models on OpenRouter
  • Improved:
    Better cache breakpoint handling for Anthropic models
  • Other bug fixes and improvements
What's new?
The most notable change in this release is supporting Anthropic's new Claude 3.7 model. This new model allows you to set a custom "thinking budget tokens". You can decide how hard the model think.
BoltAI simplifies this by using the same Reasoning Effort setting:
  • Low: 4K thinking tokens
  • Medium: 16k thinking tokens
  • High: 32k thinking tokens
It's recommended to start with medium (16k tokens) as it's the optimal setting when using Claude 3.7 extended thinking.
