Spring AI 2.1 RC2 adds a Decisions API and latest MCP spec support

According to a post on X by @therealdanvega, Spring AI 2.1 RC2 is now out. Its new Decisions API lets a model return a typed answer, such as yes/no, a choice or a score, along with probabilities, instead of free text. The release also supports the latest MCP spec, dated 2026-07-28, and the post says general availability (GA) is next.

AI-assisted summary based on the listed source.

@therealdanvega said Spring AI 2.1 RC2 is out. Its new Decisions API lets the model pick a typed answer, such as yes/no, a choice or a score, with probabilities, so there is no more parsing free text, and it supports the latest MCP spec (2026-07-28). GA is next. Why it matters: Java developers get structured model...

Developers building Java applications with Spring AI could use typed model decisions directly in code instead of writing parsers for free-text responses. Teams relying on MCP integrations may want to check support for the 2026-07-28 spec once the final release arrives. The main thing to watch is the GA release, which the post says is next.

Teams using AI at work may want to compare this against current productivity and review workflows.
