Release Notes

Glama Gateway has been moved from https://glama.ai/api/gateway/openai/v1 to just https://gateway.glama.ai/v1

This gives us:

• Drop-in SDK compatibility — Works out of the box with OpenAI, LangChain, LiteLLM, etc. One line: base_url="https://gateway.glama.ai/v1".

• Independent scaling — Gateway traffic (bursty, long-lived streaming) scales separately from the web app.

• Independent availability — Bad React Router deploy can't take down the API.

Responses now stream at a more consistent pace with smoother text rendering for better readability.

We just just refactored how the integrated web search tools work.

You will see significantly faster response times and more accurate results.

Glama now supports model reasoning capabilities.

Additionally, we have standardized every model reasoning capabilities into 3 levels effort: low, medium, and high.

We just added projects with per project documents, memories, and MCP configuration.

The number of features available has grown substantially over the last few months. As a result, we've evolved the sidebar to only show the most used features. To see the rest, click 'More'

Our built-in MCP server has gained the ability to execute code.

You can now upload more images in a single conversation without performance issues.

We just added the ability to view MCP server usage over different time spans, like the last 24 hours or the last 7 days. It also includes a breakdown of tool usage over the same time period.

We just added Mermaid support!

Ask the AI to generate a Mermaid chart to visualize your data.

Our code editor now supports syntax highlighting.

We heard your feedback and rebuilt search from scratch.

What's new:

• Lightning-fast results

• Smarter, more relevant matches

We just launched MCP Inspector.

It is a fully spec-compliant MCP Inspector with an accompanying test server, but you can use it with just about any MCP server.

Other highlights:

• No login required to use it

• Supports oauth/bearer/headers auth

• State persists in the URL (shareable!)

You can now upload PDF documents and have AI-powered conversations about their contents. Whether it's research papers, technical documentation, contracts, or reports—simply upload your PDF and start asking questions.

Glama now supports MCP sampling, allowing MCP servers to request LLM completions during tool execution.

What's new:

• MCP tools can now request AI-generated content mid-execution

• Human-in-the-loop approval flow — you control when LLM calls are made

• View the server's request (messages, max tokens) before approving

• Reject requests you don't want to process

How it works:

When an MCP server sends a sampling request, you'll see a prompt in the chat with the request details. Click Approve & Generate to call your configured LLM and return the response to the server, or Reject to decline.

This enables more sophisticated MCP tools that can leverage AI capabilities for dynamic content generation, multi-step reasoning, and intelligent data transformation — all while keeping you in control.

Long-running MCP tools can now report progress updates that display in the playground chat. When a tool sends progress notifications, a visual progress bar shows the current status (e.g., "3/5") alongside the tool call, giving users real-time feedback on task completion.

MCP tools can now return audio content that renders directly in the playground chat. Audio responses display as playable audio players with built-in playback controls, enabling tools like text-to-speech to deliver audio output inline.

MCP tools can now return image content that renders directly in the playground chat. Images are displayed inline, enabling tools like image generators to show visual output without requiring external viewers.

Upgraded infrastructure with new hardware and load balancing. Average response times reduced from 225ms to 152ms — a 32% improvement.

We now support MCP elicitations.

Elicitation enables servers to request specific information from users during interactions.

The web fetch tool allows Glama to retrieve full content from specified web pages and PDF documents.

Try this now: Type "@glama get the contents of the HN front page"

The web search tool gives Glama direct access to real-time web content, allowing it to answer questions with up-to-date information beyond its knowledge cutoff.

Try this now: Type "@glama What's the weather in NYC?"

For our gateway users, this view shows cost breakdown by label.

We just added persistent volumes for MCPs. This makes us the first one-click MCP hosting solution with persistent volumes.

Added new model: claude-opus-4-5-20251101

claude-opus-4-5-20251101 is a premium model combining maximum intelligence with practical performance.

Over the past few days, we've been focused on improving Chat and Gateway performance. Our latest updates have reduced response times by up to 40%. We hope you enjoy the faster, smoother experience.

You asked, we listened.

Many of you told us it was hard to keep up with new capabilities in Glama. While discovering features organically has its charm, we wanted to make it easier to know what's possible. Release notes now show you exactly what we've added.
