CommandBox 3.6.3 Docker images released

Today we are pleased to announce the release of version 3.6.3 of our CommandBox Docker images.

This release upgrades the CommandBox binary to 5.7.0. Read the Release Notes for this version here. Also added in this version, are new distro builds for the RHEL Universal Base Image. These images may be utilized by using the ubi9 in the image tag in the same way the alpine base images currently do. Examples:

:ub9
:lucee5-ubi9
:adobe2021-ubi9

From this release forward, Adobe 2016 ( :adobe2016 ) images are no longer being built as that product has passed EOL. You may still use this engine by specifying BOX_SERVER_APP_CFENGINE=adobe@2016 from the :jdk8 base image to run this version.

🚀 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 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. 🎯
