• MCP Service Integration and Request Processing API (Beta)
  This release establishes the foundational MCP (Model Context Protocol) server framework within BLOX NXT, enabling customers to connect external AI tools—such as Claude, ChatGPT, or custom applications—to their editorial assets. This integration allows for automated content processing, intelligent asset management, enhanced editorial workflows, and even draft asset creation by providing AI tools with structured access to your BLOX content. This feature is currently in beta. To take advantage of this capability, please contact customer support to request access. (TNCMS-556095)

• Apple News Revision Handling Improvement
  We've improved handling of revision conflicts when updating articles in Apple News. The system now automatically fetches the current revision ID from Apple News when a 409 conflict is returned, following Apple's recommended best practices for their API. Apple News support is currently in closed beta. Partners interested in participating can request access by contacting customer support. (TNCMS-556198)

• Produce Notification for Batch Edit Processes (Beta)
  Batch edit operations now generate notifications when processing completes, allowing you to move on to other work without waiting on the page or manually checking whether the update finished. Notifications appear in the Notification bell, which was introduced as a beta feature in NXT Admin 0.24.0. This enhancement should not affect general partners, but beta clients will now see the bell populate with batch edit completion notifications. (TNCMS-556246)

• Improved Solr Error Reporting
