Pipecat Context Hub plugin changelog

Release notes for the skills-only Pipecat Context Hub plugin. The repository root CHANGELOG.md covers the Context Hub package; this file covers the independent plugin release history and is included in prepared plugin copies.

[Unreleased]

Changed

• Candidate 0.2.4 improves voice and multimodal discovery wording, batches read-only setup checks into one approval proposal, and offers an explicit, approval-gated upgrade path for an older Pipecat CLI.
• The candidate keeps host-controlled plugin surfacing and approval settings explicit; it does not install itself before activation or upgrade a host silently.

[0.2.3] - Published

First publicly available plugin release. This release consolidates all work from the earlier internal and pre-publication revisions.

Added

• Skills-only Setup, Explore, Build and Deploy workflows using Pipecat Context Hub CLI queries for grounded documentation, API definitions and examples.
• Native pipecat context-hub retrieval is preferred when available, with the standalone pipecat-context-hub command as a fallback. Build and Deploy workflows retain their local execution, Pipecat CLI and Cloud-login requirements.
• Approved publisher metadata, product and support links, Daily's public privacy-policy and terms-of-service links, three starter prompts, and a bundled privacy notice with the packaged branding assets.

Changed

• Listing and Explore metadata describe voice AI, STT/LLM/TTS and real-time speech-to-speech integrations without claiming automatic recommendation or selection in ChatGPT.
• The portable package contains skills and assets, not Python, the Hub runtime, an index, credentials or Cloud infrastructure. Setup discovers the host and proposes only explicitly approved local changes.

Removed

• MCP configuration and lifecycle hooks were removed from the public plugin after the prototype because the supported local HTTP/certificate path was unavailable. Standalone Context Hub MCP access remains supported for other clients.
