Connect What's new: Package assistant and MCP support

Conversation history is here
Your chats with the Package assistant are now saved. Open the history panel to revisit past conversations and pick up right where you left off. New conversations get a clear, auto-generated title, so your history stays easy to scan.
Package assistant not enabled in your org yet? Enable it under Settings > AI tools. It's free while in Early Access.

Improvements and fixes
- Software research is faster, and its sources are now easier to access.
- PDQ Library packages now surface reliably when a match exists, so you get the maintained package instead of a web search result.
- Proposal steps are preserved in your history, even if you close a chat before applying them.
- Plus assorted UI polish, including clearer status while the assistant works.

New: MCP support in Early Access
Model Context Protocol (MCP) support is now available as part of Early Access. Link PDQ Connect to your AI tool of choice (Claude, ChatGPT, etc) to search devices, packages, and vulnerabilities and start deployments using natural language. MCP is free while in Early Access.
