The new CC, an AI agent built for families
Google has developed a new AI agent called CC designed specifically for family use. The AI aims to assist with household tasks and provide family-oriented support. (blog.google)
OpenMCP (omcp) is a community-driven, code-first hard fork of the Model Context Protocol that preserves wire-level compatibility while changing governance and development processes. The repository hosts a TypeScript-first protocol schema (also published as JSON Schema), generated HTML/PDF specifications, documentation, plugins, and build scripts; the published spec is automatically generated on every change and can be built locally with npm run build:spec. Wire protocol details - schema field names, method names, and protocol version identifiers - remain unchanged, so existing clients, servers, and SDKs interoperate without modification. The project emphasizes open, permissionless development and publishes every version and proposal at enclawed.github.io/omcp.
Contributions are judged on technical merit: pull requests must follow good coding practices, address a real problem, include working unit tests and verifiable test data, and are reviewed transparently on GitHub rather than through closed working groups. The fork is actively developed and maintained by ENCLAWED, INC.; the original MCP authors are acknowledged but the fork is independent and unaffiliated with upstream. Code and specification contributions use Apache-2.0, documentation (excluding specs) is CC-BY-4.0, some legacy items remain MIT, and OMCP and related marks are trademarked by ENCLAWED with usage rules documented.
