Release Guide

Creating a Release

Go to GitHub: Navigate to https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/releases
Click "Draft a new release"
Choose a tag: Click "Choose a tag" and type a new semantic version that follows the last one available (e.g., v1.0.0)
Generate notes: Click "Generate release notes" to auto-populate the name and description
Publish: Click "Publish release"

The release workflow will automatically:

Build binaries for 6 platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows × amd64, arm64)
Create and push Docker images with :latest and :vX.Y.Z tags
Attach all artifacts to the GitHub release
Generate checksums and signatures

After Release

Docker images will be available at:
- ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/registry:latest - Latest stable release
- ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/registry:vX.Y.Z - Specific release version
Binaries can be downloaded from the GitHub release page

Docker Image Tags

The registry publishes different Docker image tags for different use cases:

:latest - Latest stable release (updated only on releases)
:vX.Y.Z - Specific release versions (e.g., :v1.0.0)
:main - Rolling tag updated on every push to main branch (continuous deployment)
:main-YYYYMMDD-sha - Specific development builds from main branch

Versioning

We use semantic versioning (SemVer):

v1.0.0 - Major release with breaking changes
v1.1.0 - Minor release with new features
v1.0.1 - Patch release with bug fixes
