feat: add example gallery with auto-generated screenshots (#253)
* feat: add script to generate 300x300 grid-cell.png screenshots for examples

- Add generate-grid-screenshots.spec.ts Playwright test to capture screenshots
- Add npm run generate:screenshots command (Docker-based for Santa compatibility)
- Add sharp dependency for image resizing with centered-fill mode
- Generate grid-cell.png for 14 example servers (only React for basic-server-* series)

The screenshots are 300x300 PNG images cropped with centered fill mode,
suitable for use in a grid layout showcasing the examples.

* docs: add example gallery grid to README

Add a 3-column visual grid showcasing 14 example MCP Apps with:
- Thumbnail screenshots (300x300 grid-cell.png)
- Clickable links to example directories
- Hover tooltips with brief descriptions

Organized by visual impact: 3D/WebGL examples first, then
visualizations, charts, monitoring, and starter templates.

* fix: use aspect-fit instead of crop for screenshots

Change from fit: 'cover' (crops) to fit: 'contain' (letterbox)
so the full app content is visible without cropping.

* feat: improve screenshot generation

- Constrain viewport to 500px width for consistent rendering
- Wait 5 seconds for full app load (tiles, animations, data)
- Screenshot just the inner iframe (no extra whitespace)
- Save both screenshot.png (full-size) and grid-cell.png (300x300 thumbnail)
- Use contain mode to preserve aspect ratio

* fix: use cover mode with top alignment for grid thumbnails

No letterboxing - crops to fill 300x300, aligned to top so headers
and important content are always visible.

* feat: improve screenshot gallery

- Remove integration-server from gallery (it's for E2E testing only)
- Add 30s extra wait for Map and Video servers to load fully
- Improve Three.js default scene: isometric rotation + better lighting
- Update README: Starter Templates row with links to all framework variants
  (React, Vue, Svelte, Preact, Solid, Vanilla JS)
- Regenerate all screenshots with updated settings

* fix: improve README gallery layout

- Fix uneven column widths by using minimal separator
- Move Starter Templates to separate 2-cell table with description
- Add screenshot.png to top of each example README (13 examples)
- Shorten tooltips for cleaner table

* revert to document.write again; cesiumjs doesn't like srcdoc, period.

* fix: map-server screenshot now renders properly

- Merged ochafik/post-fixes which reverts sandbox from srcdoc to document.write
  (CesiumJS doesn't work with srcdoc iframes)
- Fixed map-server name in screenshot test ('Map Server' not 'CesiumJS Map Server')
- Simplified screenshot generation script (removed complex debugging code)
- Increased map-server wait time to 45s for reliable tile loading
- Regenerated all 13 screenshots

* fix: remove redundant screenshots from READMEs

Remove the simple \![Screenshot](screenshot.png) line from READMEs that
already had nicer HTML table screenshots. Keep it only for examples
that didn't have existing screenshots.

* docs: move gallery to Examples section

- Move screenshot gallery from top of README to Examples section
- Remove redundant list of basic examples (now shown visually in gallery)
- Clean up duplicate run instructions

* fix: remove empty header row from starter templates table

* fix: remove empty header rows from both tables

* fix: add prettier-ignore to prevent table header expansion

* feat: use custom screenshot for video-resource-server

- Use better screenshot from PR #253 comment showing actual video playback
- Skip video-resource-server in screenshot generation script
- Add SKIP_SERVERS set for manually maintained screenshots

* fix: revert unrelated map-server name change

* fix: use correct server name 'CesiumJS Map Server' in screenshot test

refactor: rename request methods to remove send prefix (#161)
* refactor: rename request methods to remove send prefix

Following the MCP TS SDK convention where request methods don't have
the "send" prefix (reserved for notifications):

- App.sendMessage() → App.message()
- App.sendOpenLink() → App.openLink()
- AppBridge.sendResourceTeardown() → AppBridge.resourceTeardown()

The old method names are kept as deprecated aliases for backwards
compatibility.

Updated all examples to use the new method names.

* test: add tests for deprecated method aliases

- Update existing tests to use new method names (message, openLink)
- Add tests verifying deprecated aliases are same reference as new methods
- Add tests verifying deprecated aliases still work functionally

* refactor: rename message→sendMessage, resourceTeardown→teardownResource

- App.message() → App.sendMessage() (with deprecated message alias)
- AppBridge.resourceTeardown() → AppBridge.teardownResource() (with deprecated aliases)

This better follows the pattern where methods that send data have 'send' or action verb prefix.

* fix: update examples to use sendMessage instead of message

* fix: update basic-host to use teardownResource

* fix: update threejs-server to use sendMessage

* refactor: remove deprecated app.message alias

The app.message alias was removed since sendMessage is the correct name.
sendResourceTeardown already exists in AppBridge.

* refactor: remove resourceTeardown alias, keep only sendResourceTeardown

97310d50c5 Add basic-host and basic-server-react examples
Introduce new example implementations to replace simple-host and
simple-server:

- basic-host: Reference host implementation with double-iframe sandbox
  pattern for secure UI isolation (outer iframe validates and relays
  messages, inner iframe renders untrusted tool UI via srcdoc)

- basic-server-react: MCP server example demonstrating tool registration
  with linked UI resources and React UI using the useApp() hook

Build infrastructure updates:
- Add build:all script and simplify CI/pre-commit to use it
- Add examples:dev for watch-mode development workflow

Also change PostMessageTransport logging from info to debug level.
