Spring AI 2.1.0-M1 is now available! It brings OpenAI Responses API, and we plan to release the new agentic support in Novembe 2026 as a separate project under Spring Projects Experimental, with the plan to merge it into Spring AI 3.0 mid next year. spring.io/blog/2026/09...

Good news: we fixed an issue that caused inner class records to show up as bean definitions - so in case you came across this in the past, make sure to update to the latest release 😊
Bringing more Spring smartness to your coding agent doesn't stop with delivering specific diagnostics, it comes with the corresponding quick fixes for those observations as well - now as skills and explanation markdowns that tell the agent precisely how to improve the code and fix the issue 🎉
Spring Tools@springtools.bsky.social · 2mo agoOur extension for Claude Code can tell your agent what seems to be wrong with your project from a Spring perspective by deliverung diagnostics information directly to the agent - pretty nice to safe tokens and to enhance the agent with more Spring smartness 😎🥳

If you are building MCP servers with Spring AI, having a good tool description can be key for an LLM to pick the right one. So we added a validation that checks for a (configurable) minimum length - just as a first indicator 😀
Three races in 8 days, probably a little too much… 😉 The race today went fine, but the tank was pretty empty during the run. But nevertheless, I made it to the finish line - and now need to recover, recover, and recover 🫠🥴
