================================================================================
6.12.0_HF-003 (This Release)
 
New Features
 
AMBW-56545
BusinessWorks Design Assistant is an AI-powered capability that allows users
to create processes and applications, generate unit tests, and produce
project documentation using simple natural language prompts.
 
 Note: This is a tech preview feature.
 
AMBW-55993
Context Memory Support for REST and SOAP MCP Servers.
 
Support has been added for Context Memory in REST and SOAP Model Context
Protocol (MCP) servers, enabling session-based storage and retrieval of
data across MCP interactions.
 
The following memory management tools are now available for REST and
SOAP MCP servers:
 
 * memory_set - Stores a JSON value under a key for the current MCP session. 
   If the key already exists, the value is overwritten.
 * memory_get - Retrieves the value associated with a specific key from the 
   current session memory. Returns found=false if the key does not exist.
 * memory_list - Lists all keys currently stored in the session memory in 
   alphabetical order.
 * memory_get_all - Returns all key/value pairs currently stored in the 
   session memory.
 * memory_delete - Deletes a key from the session memory. Returns existed=false 
   if the key was not present.
 
This enhancement enables MCP servers to maintain conversational and operational 
context across requests, improving continuity and supporting more 
stateful interactions.

AMBW-55569
Studio will now log any errors that occur while using the 'Push to Platform'
functionality.
 
AMBW-55258
MCP Tool and Resource Configuration Overrides.
 
Added support for overriding MCP tool (name, description, scope) and resource 
properties (name, description) at runtime using an external JSON configuration 
file. Use the generate_mcp_ear command to create a companion JSON file
alongside the EAR, listing all tools and resources defined in that EAR.
 
The file-based overrides take precedence over module properties and
literal values, enabling dynamic configuration without redeployment.
 
Configure using one of these options:
 
 * System Property: bw.mcp.tool.overrides.config.file=<override_json_file_path>
 
 * Environment Variable: BW_MCP_TOOL_OVERRIDES_CONFIG_FILE

AMBW-54668
Prompt Support for MCP Servers.
 
Support has been added for providing prompts to Model Context Protocol (MCP)
server tools implemented in BusinessWorks for both REST and SOAP MCP servers.
 
This enhancement enables users to define and pass prompts directly to MCP 
server components, improving flexibility and simplifying interaction with
BW-implemented tools across REST- and SOAP-based integrations.

AMBW-54665
Expose REST and SOAP Operations as MCP Resources.
 
Support has been added for exposing existing REST and SOAP service operations
as Model Context Protocol (MCP) resources in BusinessWorks.
 
With this enhancement, service operations can now be configured and exposed
as either MCP tools or MCP resources, providing greater flexibility in how 
REST and SOAP services are integrated and consumed through MCP servers.

AMBW-52045
AI Mapper is an intelligent assistant that automates data mapping by
suggesting accurate field matches between source and target structures. 
It supports both local and LLM-powered modes, reducing manual effort while 
ensuring data privacy.
 
 Note: This is a tech preview feature.
 
BWCE-5543
Support for multiple instances of the monitoring tool using a single FQDN is 
provided in this version.
 
Changes In Functionality
 
AMBW-55867
The Scope field in the MCP Tool Properties section for JWT authentication 
is now editable. Previously, users could only select predefined values 
such as Read and Update. With this enhancement, users can now enter custom 
scope values as needed, providing greater flexibility and support for 
additional use cases and integrations.

Known Issues
 
AMBW-54224
If user tries to install EMS 10.4.0 HF03 on top of EMS 10.4.0 GA on 
BusinessWorks 6.12.0 HF01 and then when they try to install the EMS driver, 
it throws an error. 
 
Workaround: 
 1. Since EMS 10.4.0 HF03 is a full installer do not install it on 
    EMS 10.4.0 GA
 
 2. If user installs it on EMS 10.4.0 GA then ensure to delete the older
    version plugin jars and then run the bwinstall ems-driver command to 
not see any issue.
 
BWCE-9698
Process Monitoring is not working on PCF environment.
 
Closed Issues
 
AMBW-56538
The BusinessWorks 6 MCP Server (REST and SOAP) introduces two new properties 
to improve session reliability in TIBCO Platform deployments.
 
 
  1. Setting bw.mcp.stateless=true or the environment variable 
     BW_MCP_STATELESS=true enables stateless HTTP transport. This is 
     particularly useful for load-balanced or Kubernetes deployments where 
     session affinity cannot be guaranteed.
       Note: Context memory tools are not available in stateless mode.
 
  2. Optionally, you can configure 
     bw.mcp.keepalive.interval=<time_in_milliseconds> 
     or the environment variable BW_MCP_KEEPALIVE_INTERVAL to control the 
     SSE keep-alive ping interval. The default interval has been reduced from 
     60 seconds to 30 seconds to help prevent proxy-side connection drops.

the actual model value to unset the entry.
 
AMBW-54882
Fixed an issue where Hebrew schemas and procedures were not displayed in the
JDBC Call Procedure palette for Oracle 19c by ensuring proper loading of
orai18n.jar, thereby resolving character set errors.
 
AMBW-54277
Resolved an issue where the AppNode restart failed when the local license file
