ctx.http.authed() sends and returns bodies verbatim
Strings, Uint8Array, ArrayBuffer, Blob, FormData, and streams are all accepted and sent unchanged, so a string body is no longer rejected and never arrives JSON-quoted. Plain objects and arrays are still serialized as JSON. Binary uploads to a third-party API work end to end. Request bodies cap at 16 MB; use the target API's multipart or chunked flow above that.
JSON is parsed as before, textual types come back as a string, and anything else is returned as raw bytes, so a binary download arrives unmangled instead of corrupted by a text decode.
Redirect responses are returned to your code with their location header3xx responses are no longer followed automatically, so you decide whether to follow one.

The MCP credential test tool handles binary datatray_call_credential_broker takes a bodyBase64 argument for raw bytes, mutually exclusive with body, and returns binary responses inline up to 64 KiB. It accepts a raw string body, sends it verbatim, returns the upstream status and headers unchanged including 4xx and 5xx, and gives rejected calls a machine-readable code.
