# ForceNotes — Salesforce release summaries

MCP endpoint: https://forcenotes.app/mcp (JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP POST). No key required — 20 calls/min anonymous, 120/min with a free key from https://forcenotes.app/keys.

Client config:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "forcenotes": { "type": "http", "url": "https://forcenotes.app/mcp" }
  }
}

## The tool: get_release_summary

- No arguments -> the list of releases ForceNotes tracks, newest first, with the upcoming (preview) release on top and next_release / current_release named.
- release set to a name ("Winter '27") or an alias (next | current | preview) -> that release's summary: overview, counts by change class, curated highlights, what's new by topic, and the items that need action before the release (deadline-sorted), each with a source_url.

## Before writing or editing Apex, Flow, or LWC

If the org's release is known, call get_release_summary with that release first. The summary's skill_url links the full version-gated rule set for that release — what to do differently once metadata is authored at that release's API version or higher.

## Notes
- Read-only. Every item carries source_url and a freshness flag (fresh <24h | stale).
- Summaries are derived; the linked Salesforce release notes are authoritative. Not affiliated with Salesforce.
