# Make it work, make it better: What's new with the Buildkite MCP server

**[Buildkite](https://daily.dev/sources/buildkite)** · 9 min read · 11 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Buildkite released major updates to their Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, introducing a fully managed remote server with OAuth authentication, dramatically improved log fetching and parsing using Apache Parquet format with smart caching, and specialized tooling for monitoring running builds. The updates address key pain points discovered after the initial release: handling massive build logs that overwhelm AI agents, eliminating local server maintenance overhead, and bridging the gap between API capabilities and practical AI agent usage. The server now enables developers to bootstrap pipelines, debug failures more efficiently, and integrate CI/CD workflows with AI tools like Claude and VS Code with minimal configuration.
