DorkOS 0.9.0 opens the door to external agents and tools. An embedded MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf connect directly to your DorkOS instance — while file uploads, a refreshed chat experience, and 13 reliability fixes make the day-to-day smoother.

Highlights

⭐ Embedded MCP server — External agents connect to DorkOS via Streamable HTTP at /mcp. Your agents' tools are now accessible from any MCP-compatible client without additional setup.

📎 File uploads in chat — Drag-and-drop, click the paperclip, or paste from clipboard. Files flow into your agent conversations naturally.

🔧 SSE reliability overhaul — Resolved the SSE delivery pipeline that was causing 40-50% message freezes, eliminated ghost messages, and fixed streaming/history inconsistencies. Chat just works now.
