I have just updated the bits for ColdBox 2.6.0 Beta 2. This update includes tons of fixes on caching, request context optimizations, var scoping fixes, sample application updates, flex tester upgrade, dashboard windows compatibility, mxunit generation, performance updates and a new Cheat Sheet. Phew!! What a week getting ready for CF. Objective. The other update is for the extra downloads, the plugin pack. The plugin pack includes an update rssReader plugin that will now cache either in the coldbox cache or files. This gives you more versatility. Also, you can now decide how many entries per feed you want to create. The other update is also for the plugin pack, new plugin called paging.cfc. This plugin will create a carrousel for paging for any type of recordset or whatever you want to create paging or carrousels for. The api is very simple to use. Anyways, please enjoy this beta and test to your heart's content.

🚀 ColdBox CLI 8.11: The Era of AI Skills Comes to Every ColdBox & BoxLang App
ColdBox CLI 8.11 is here, and it's one of the most significant releases we've shipped for AI-assisted development. This release wires the CLI directly into our brand new public skills directory at skills.boxlang.io, brings our AI tooling in line with industry-wide agent conventions, and introduces a wave of quality-of-life improvements that make AI integration feel less like setup and more like infrastructure.
🎓 Introducing skills.boxlang.io — The Open Agent Skills Ecosystem for BoxLang & the Ortus World
Today we're launching something we've been quietly building for months: skills.boxlang.io — a public, agent-agnostic directory for AI skills covering BoxLang, ColdBox, TestBox, CommandBox, and the entire Ortus ecosystem.
🛰️ Introducing cbMCP — Your ColdBox App, Live to Every AI Agent
Today we're releasing cbMCP, the official ColdBox MCP Server — a BoxLang-only module that turns your running ColdBox application into a fully-compliant Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Plug in any MCP-capable AI client — Claude Desktop, VS Code Copilot, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode — and your AI assistant gets live, read-only introspection across the entire ColdBox platform: routing, handlers, modules, WireBox, CacheBox, LogBox, schedulers, interceptors, and async executors. 🎯

Hi, i was having a problem trying to d/l the plugin pack from the depot page: http://ortus.svnrepository.com/coldbox/trac.cgi/wiki/cbCodeDepot
Turns out the plugin d/l link is wrong on that page: http://www.coldboxframework.com/downloads/depot/plugins/pluginpack.zip
i believe it should be (without plugins directory): http://www.coldboxframework.com/downloads/depot/pluginpack.zip
I love ColdBox! keep up the good work.
