@Rocky What is the timeline for next release for StarRocks MCP?

As of October 2026, StarRocks MCP primarily refers to the StarRocks Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server, which enables AI assistants (like Claude) to interact with StarRocks databases. There is no single fixed "release date" for the next version of the MCP Server, as it is maintained as an active open-source project with continuous updates. However, here is the current status and the timeline for the related StarRocks database releases: 1. StarRocks MCP Server (AI Integration) * Current Status: The official StarRocks MCP Server is currently available (found as

mcp-server-starrocks

on PyPI and GitHub). Recent updates and Docker images were released in October 2026. * Next Updates: Development is ongoing on GitHub. Updates typically follow the release of new database features (such as vector search improvements or new metadata types). You can track the latest changes in the StarRocks/mcp-server-starrocks repository. 2. StarRocks Database Release Timeline If you are looking for the next major/minor release of the StarRocks database itself, the community follows a general four-month cadence for minor versions: * Latest Release: StarRocks 4.1 was released in September/October 2026 (with version 4.1.6 being the latest stable as of early October). * Next Minor Release (v4.2): Based on the typical four-month schedule, StarRocks 4.2 is expected in early 2027 (likely around February). * Roadmap 2026: Key features planned for the remainder of 2026 and into 2027 include: * Enhanced multi-tenant data management (automatic tablet splitting). * Advanced Vector Index support. * Full-text inverted index improvements. * Improved "Fast Schema Evolution" for shared-data architectures. Summary * For the MCP Server: Updates are continuous. Check GitHub for the most recent commits. * For the Database: Expect the next minor version (4.2) in early 2027. For the most authoritative and up-to-date schedule, I recommend checking the StarRocks Community Slack or the GitHub Roadmap issue (#67632) where maintainers provide specific feature timelines.
