-## Build with Agent Skills
-
-The fastest way to build an MCP App is to let your AI coding agent do it. This
-repo ships four [Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io/) โ install them once,
-then just ask:
-
-| Skill | What it does | Try it |
-| --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
-| [`create-mcp-app`](./plugins/mcp-apps/skills/create-mcp-app/SKILL.md) | Scaffolds a new MCP App with an interactive UI from scratch | _"Create an MCP App"_ |
-| [`migrate-oai-app`](./plugins/mcp-apps/skills/migrate-oai-app/SKILL.md) | Converts an existing OpenAI App to use MCP Apps | _"Migrate from OpenAI Apps SDK"_ |
-| [`add-app-to-server`](./plugins/mcp-apps/skills/add-app-to-server/SKILL.md) | Adds interactive UI to an existing MCP server's tools | _"Add UI to my MCP server"_ |
-| [`convert-web-app`](./plugins/mcp-apps/skills/convert-web-app/SKILL.md) | Turns an existing web app into a hybrid web + MCP App | _"Add MCP App support to my web app"_ |
-
-### Install the Skills
-
-**Claude Code** โ install via the plugin marketplace:
-
-```
-/plugin marketplace add modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps
-/plugin install mcp-apps@modelcontextprotocol-ext-apps
-```
-
-**Other agents** โ any AI coding agent that supports
-[Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io/) can use these skills. See the
-[agent skills guide](./docs/agent-skills.md) for manual installation
-instructions.
-
-Once installed, verify by asking your agent _"What skills do you have?"_ โ you
-should see `create-mcp-app`, `migrate-oai-app`, `add-app-to-server`, and
-`convert-web-app` in the list. Then just ask it to create or migrate an app and
-it will guide you through the rest.

-> [!NOTE]
-> MCP Apps is an extension to the
-> [core MCP specification](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification). Host
-> support varies โ see the
-> [clients page](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/clients) for the full list.
-
-## Why MCP Apps?
-
-MCP tools return text and structured data. That works for many cases, but not
-when you need an interactive UI, like a chart, form, design canvas or video player.
-
-MCP Apps provide a standardized way to deliver interactive UIs from MCP servers.
-Your UI renders inline in the conversation, in context, in any compliant host.
+MCP Apps are a proposed standard inspired by [MCP-UI](https://mcpui.dev/) and [OpenAI's Apps SDK](https://developers.openai.com/apps-sdk/) to allow MCP Servers to display interactive UI elements in conversational MCP clients / chatbots.
## How It Works
-MCP Apps extend the Model Context Protocol by letting tools declare UI
-resources:
+MCP Apps extend the Model Context Protocol to let servers deliver **interactive UIs** to MCP hosts. Here's how it works:
-1. **Tool definition** โ Your tool declares a `ui://` resource containing its
- HTML interface
-2. **Tool call** โ The LLM calls the tool on your server
-3. **Host renders** โ The host fetches the resource and displays it in a
- sandboxed iframe
-4. **Bidirectional communication** โ The host passes tool data to the UI via
- notifications, and the UI can call other tools through the host
+1. **Tool call** โ The LLM calls a tool on your server
+2. **UI Resource** โ The tool's definition links to a predeclared `ui://` resource containing its HTML interface
+3. **Host renders** โ The host fetches the resource and displays it in a sandboxed iframe
+4. **Bidirectional communication** โ The host passes tool data to the UI via notifications, and the UI can call other tools through the host
-## Getting Started
+This enables dashboards, forms, visualizations, and other rich experiences inside chat interfaces.
-Requires Node.js 20+. The base MCP SDK packages are `^2.0.0` peers of
-`ext-apps` (`@modelcontextprotocol/core` is a required peer that `client` already depends on, so npm installs it for you).
+## Overview
-For a View or host:
+This SDK serves two audiences:
+
+### App Developers
+
+Build interactive UIs that run inside MCP-enabled chat clients.
+
+- **SDK for Apps**: `@modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps` โ [API Docs](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/ext-apps/api/modules/app.html)
+- **React hooks**: `@modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/react` โ [API Docs](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/ext-apps/api/modules/_modelcontextprotocol_ext-apps_react.html)
+
+### Host Developers
+
+Embed and communicate with MCP Apps in your chat application.
+
+- **SDK for Hosts**: `@modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/app-bridge` โ [API Docs](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/ext-apps/api/modules/app-bridge.html)
+
+There's no _supported_ host implementation in this repo (beyond the [examples/basic-host](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-host) example).
+
+We have [contributed a tentative implementation](https://github.com/MCP-UI-Org/mcp-ui/pull/147) of hosting / iframing / sandboxing logic to the [MCP-UI](https://github.com/idosal/mcp-ui) repository, and expect OSS clients may use it, while other clients might roll their own hosting logic.
+
+## Installation
```bash
-npm install -S @modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps \
- @modelcontextprotocol/client@^2.0.0 \
- zod@^4.2.0
+npm install -S @modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps
```
-For an MCP server, add the server package (and, for HTTP transports, the Node
-and Express adapters):
+Or edit your `package.json` manually:
-```bash
-npm install -S @modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps \
- @modelcontextprotocol/client@^2.0.0 \
- @modelcontextprotocol/server@^2.0.0 \
- @modelcontextprotocol/node@^2.0.0 \
- @modelcontextprotocol/express@^2.0.0 \
- zod@^4.2.0
+```json
+{
+ "dependencies": {
+ "@modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps": "^0.0.1"
+ }
+}
```
-The wire protocol is unchanged between `ext-apps` 1.x and 2.x: a 2.x View works
-in a 1.x host and a 2.x host renders 1.x Views. See the
-[migration guide](https://apps.extensions.modelcontextprotocol.io/api/documents/migrate-to-v2.html)
-when upgrading from 1.x.
-
-**New here?** Start with the
-[Quickstart Guide](https://apps.extensions.modelcontextprotocol.io/api/documents/quickstart.html)
-to build your first MCP App.
-
-## Using the SDK
-
-The SDK serves three roles: app developers building interactive Views, host
-developers embedding those Views, and MCP server authors registering tools with
-UI metadata.
-

-
-There's no _supported_ host implementation in this repo (beyond the
-[examples/basic-host](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-host)
-example).
-
-The [MCP-UI](https://github.com/idosal/mcp-ui) client SDK offers a
-fully-featured MCP Apps framework used by a few hosts. Clients may choose to use
-it or roll their own implementation.

-### Running the Examples
+The [`examples/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples) directory contains additional demo apps showcasing real-world use cases.
-#### With basic-host
-
-To run all examples locally using
-[basic-host](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-host)
-(the reference host implementation included in this repo):
+To run all examples:
```bash
-git clone https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps.git
-cd ext-apps
npm install
npm start
```
Then open http://localhost:8080/.
-#### With MCP Clients
-
-Every Node.js example is published as `@modelcontextprotocol/server-`. To
-add one to an MCP client that supports stdio (Claude Desktop, VS Code, etc.),
-use this pattern:
-
-```json
-{
- "mcpServers": {
- "": {
- "command": "npx",
- "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-", "--stdio"]
- }
- }
-}
-```
-
-For example, to add the map server: `@modelcontextprotocol/server-map`. The
-Python examples (`qr-server`, `say-server`) use `uv run` instead โ see their
-READMEs for details.
-
-#### Local Development
-
-To test local modifications with an MCP client, clone the repo, install, then
-point your client at a local build:
-
-```json
-{
- "mcpServers": {
- "": {
- "command": "bash",
- "args": [
- "-c",
- "cd ~/code/ext-apps/examples/-server && npm run build >&2 && node dist/index.js --stdio"
- ]
- }
- }
-}
-```

-description: Use Agent Skills to build, migrate, and extend MCP Apps with AI coding agents. Install skills that scaffold new apps, convert OpenAI Apps, and add UI to existing servers.
----
-
-# Agent Skills
-
-[Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io/) are instruction sets that guide AI coding agents through tasks. When you invoke a skill, the agent takes the lead โ it asks clarifying questions, makes decisions based on your codebase, and executes the work.
-
-This repository provides four skills:
-
-- [**create-mcp-app**](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/plugins/mcp-apps/skills/create-mcp-app/SKILL.md) โ scaffolds a new MCP App with an interactive UI
-- [**migrate-oai-app**](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/plugins/mcp-apps/skills/migrate-oai-app/SKILL.md) โ migrates an existing OpenAI App to the MCP Apps SDK
-- [**add-app-to-server**](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/plugins/mcp-apps/skills/add-app-to-server/SKILL.md) โ adds interactive UI to an existing MCP server's tools
-- [**convert-web-app**](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/plugins/mcp-apps/skills/convert-web-app/SKILL.md) โ converts an existing web application into an MCP App
-
-## Install the Skills
-
-Choose one of the following installation methods based on your agent:
-
-### Option 1: Claude Code Plugin
-
-Install via Claude Code:
-
-```
-/plugin marketplace add modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps
-/plugin install mcp-apps@modelcontextprotocol-ext-apps
-```
-
-### Option 2: Vercel Skills CLI
-
-Use the [Vercel Skills CLI](https://skills.sh/) to install skills across different AI coding agents:
-
-```bash
-npx skills add modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps
-```
-
-### Option 3: Manual Installation
-
-Clone the repository:
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps.git
-```
-
-Then copy the skills from `plugins/mcp-apps/skills/` to your agent's skills directory. See your agent's documentation for the correct location:
-
-- [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/skills)
-- [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/customization/agent-skills) / [GitHub Copilot](https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/concepts/agents/about-agent-skills)
-- [Codex](https://developers.openai.com/codex/skills/)
-- [Gemini CLI](https://geminicli.com/docs/cli/skills/)
-- [Cline](https://docs.cline.bot/features/skills#skills)
-- [Goose](https://block.github.io/goose/docs/guides/context-engineering/using-skills/)
-
-## Verify Installation
-
-Ask your agent "What skills do you have?" โ you should see `create-mcp-app`, `migrate-oai-app`, `add-app-to-server`, and `convert-web-app` among the available skills.
-
-## Invoke a Skill
-
-Try invoking the skills by asking your agent:
-
-- "Create an MCP App" โ scaffolds a new MCP App with an interactive UI
-- "Migrate from OpenAI Apps SDK" โ converts an existing OpenAI App to use the MCP Apps SDK
-- "Add UI to my MCP server" โ adds interactive UI to an existing MCP server's tools
-- "Convert my web app to an MCP App" โ converts an existing web application into an MCP App
-
-The agent will guide you through the process, asking clarifying questions as needed.
-
-## Test Your App
-
-After creating or migrating your MCP App, see the [Testing MCP Apps](./testing-mcp-apps.md) guide to run and debug it locally.

-group: Security
-description: Learn how to protect MCP App tools with OAuth authorization, including per-server and per-tool auth patterns, token verification, and UI-initiated auth escalation.
----
-
-# Authorization
-
-MCP Apps can protect tools behind OAuth-based authorization, as defined in the [MCP specification](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization). There are two approaches:
-
-- **Per-server authorization** โ The entire MCP server requires authorization at connection time. Every request must include a valid token, regardless of which tool is being called. This is the simpler model when all tools are sensitive.
-- **Per-tool authorization** โ Only specific tools require authorization. Public tools work without a token, and the OAuth flow is triggered only when the user calls a protected tool. This lets you mix public and protected tools in the same server.
-
-## Shared setup
-
-Regardless of which approach you choose, you need OAuth discovery metadata and token verification. These are the same for both.
-
-### OAuth discovery metadata
-
-The MCP specification requires servers to implement [authorization server discovery](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#authorization-server-discovery) so clients know how to obtain authorization. Two well-known endpoints are needed:
-
-**[Protected Resource Metadata](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9728)** (`/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource`) โ describes the resource server and identifies which authorization server(s) can issue tokens for it. The MCP SDK's `mcpAuthRouter` handles this automatically.
-
-**Authorization Server Metadata** (`/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`) โ advertises the authorization and token endpoints, supported scopes, and whether [Client ID Metadata Documents](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#client-id-metadata-documents) (CIMD) is supported:
-
-```ts
-app.get("/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server", (_req, res) => {
- res.json({
- ...oauthMetadata,
- client_id_metadata_document_supported: true,
- });
-});
-```
-
-Setting `client_id_metadata_document_supported: true` tells MCP clients to use CIMD instead of [Dynamic Client Registration](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#dynamic-client-registration) (DCR). With CIMD, the `client_id` is a URL that serves the client's metadata document, removing the need for a registration endpoint. See [Client Registration Approaches](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#client-registration-approaches) in the spec for the full list of options and priority order.
-
-### Token verification
-
-Verify access tokens as JWTs against the identity provider's JWKS endpoint. The `jose` library handles key fetching and caching:
-
-```ts
-import { createRemoteJWKSet, jwtVerify } from "jose";
-
-const JWKS = createRemoteJWKSet(new URL(`${IDP_DOMAIN}/.well-known/jwks.json`));
-
-const { payload } = await jwtVerify(token, JWKS, {
- issuer: IDP_DOMAIN,
-});
-```
-
-MCP servers must validate that tokens were issued specifically for them โ see [Token Handling](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#token-handling) and [Access Token Privilege Restriction](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#access-token-privilege-restriction) in the spec for the full requirements.
-
-## Per-server authorization
-
-With per-server authorization, every request to the `/mcp` endpoint must include a valid Bearer token. Any unauthorized request receives HTTP `401`, and the host must complete the OAuth flow before the client can use any tools. This is the right choice when all tools are sensitive and there's no value in allowing unauthorized access.
-
-The TypeScript MCP SDK supports this out of the box via `mcpAuthRouter` and `ProxyOAuthServerProvider` โ no custom HTTP handler logic is needed. See the [MCP SDK documentation](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk) for setup details.
-
-## Per-tool authorization
-
-With per-tool authorization, the `/mcp` endpoint handler inspects the raw JSON-RPC request body, checks whether any message targets a protected tool, and only enforces authorization for those calls. Public tools pass through without a token.
-
-### How it works
-
-1. The server maintains a set of tool names that require authorization
-2. When a JSON-RPC request arrives at the `/mcp` endpoint, the server inspects the request body to determine if any message is a `tools/call` targeting a protected tool
-3. If a protected tool is being called and no valid Bearer token is present, the server returns HTTP `401` with a [`WWW-Authenticate` header](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#protected-resource-metadata-discovery-requirements) pointing to its [Protected Resource Metadata](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9728)
-4. The MCP host (e.g., Claude Desktop) sees the `401`, discovers the authorization server via the metadata URL, runs the [OAuth flow](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#authorization-flow-steps) with the user, and retries the request with the acquired token
-5. On retry, the server verifies the token, extracts the user identity, and creates a per-request MCP server instance with that auth context
-6. Unprotected tools pass through without any token check โ they work for everyone
-
-This design means authorization is enforced at the HTTP boundary (as [required by the spec](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#access-token-usage)), not as a tool-level error. The MCP server itself never sees unauthorized requests for protected tools.
-
-### Enforcing HTTP 401
-
-The [MCP auth specification](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#access-token-usage) requires protected resources to return HTTP `401` responses โ not tool-level errors.
-
-Start by defining which tools require authorization. Then, in the `/mcp` endpoint handler, inspect the raw JSON-RPC request body, check whether any message targets a protected tool, and either verify the Bearer token or return `401` before the request ever reaches the MCP server:
-
-```ts
-/** Tools that require a valid Bearer token โ checked at the HTTP level for proper 401. */
-const PROTECTED_TOOLS = new Set(["get_account_balance", "manage_branch_admin"]);
-
-app.all("/mcp", async (req, res) => {
- // Parse the JSON-RPC body โ it may be a single message or a batch
- const messages = Array.isArray(req.body) ? req.body : [req.body];
-
- // Check if any message is a tools/call for a protected tool
- const needsAuth = messages.some(
- (msg: any) =>
- msg?.method === "tools/call" && PROTECTED_TOOLS.has(msg.params?.name),
- );
-
- // Extract and verify the Bearer token
- let authInfo: AuthInfo | undefined;
- const authHeader = req.headers.authorization;
-
- if (authHeader?.startsWith("Bearer ")) {
- try {
- const token = authHeader.slice(7);
- const { payload } = await jwtVerify(token, JWKS, {
- issuer: IDP_DOMAIN,
- });
- authInfo = { token, sub: payload.sub as string };
- } catch {
- if (needsAuth) {
- return res
- .status(401)
- .set(
- "WWW-Authenticate",
- `Bearer resource_metadata="${resourceMetadataUrl}"`,
- )
- .json({
- error: "invalid_token",
- error_description: "The access token is invalid",
- });
- }
- }
- } else if (needsAuth) {
- return res
- .status(401)
- .set(
- "WWW-Authenticate",
- `Bearer resource_metadata="${resourceMetadataUrl}"`,
- )
- .json({
- error: "invalid_token",
- error_description: "Authorization required",
- });
- }
-
- // Create a per-request MCP server with the auth context.
- // authInfo is undefined for public tool calls, populated for
- // authenticated requests โ tool handlers use it to scope data
- // to the authenticated user.
- const server = createServer(authInfo);
- // ... handle the request with transport
-});
-```
-
-The `WWW-Authenticate` header includes the [Protected Resource Metadata](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#authorization-server-location) URL, which tells the client where to discover the authorization server.
-
-### Defence-in-depth in tool handlers
-
-Even though the HTTP layer enforces authorization, protected tool handlers should also verify `authInfo` as a defence-in-depth measure. If the HTTP layer is misconfigured or bypassed, the tool handler catches unauthorized access:
-
-```ts
-registerAppTool(
- server,
- "get_account_balance",
- {
- description: "Get account balance",
- inputSchema: z.object({ accountId: z.string() }),
- },
- async ({ accountId }) => {
- if (!authInfo) {
- return {
- isError: true,
- content: [
- {
- type: "text",
- text: "Authorization required to access account data.",
- },
- ],
- };
- }
-
- const balance = await getBalance(authInfo.sub, accountId);
- return {
- content: [{ type: "text", text: `Balance: ${balance}` }],
- };
- },
-);
-```
-
-### UI-initiated auth escalation
-
-A powerful pattern is mixing public and protected tools in the same app. The app loads with public data (no authorization required), and the OAuth flow is triggered only when the user performs a protected action. This is a practical application of the [step-up authorization flow](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/latest/basic/authorization#step-up-authorization-flow) described in the spec:
-
-1. A public tool (e.g., `manage_branch`) loads the UI without requiring authorization
-2. The user clicks a button that calls a protected tool via `app.callServerTool()`
-3. The MCP host receives HTTP `401` and automatically runs the OAuth flow
-4. After the user completes the OAuth flow, the host retries the tool call with the acquired token
-5. The protected data appears in the UI
-
-```tsx
-function BranchItem({ branch }: { branch: Branch }) {
- const [adminData, setAdminData] = useState(null);
-
- async function handleManage() {
- // This call may trigger the OAuth flow if the user
- // hasn't been authorized yet โ the host handles it
- // transparently.
- const result = await app.callServerTool({
- name: "manage_branch_admin",
- arguments: { branch_id: branch.id },
- });
- setAdminData(result.structuredContent);
- }
-
- return (
-
- {branch.name}
-
- {adminData && }
-
- );
-}
-```
-
-This pattern keeps the initial experience fast (no login wall) while securing sensitive operations behind authorization. The host manages the entire OAuth flow โ the app code simply calls the tool and handles the result.

-title: CSP and CORS
-group: Security
-description: Configure Content Security Policy and CORS for MCP Apps that make network requests from sandboxed iframes, including connectDomains, resourceDomains, and stable origin setup.
----
-
-# CSP & CORS
-
-Unlike regular web apps, MCP Apps HTML is served as an MCP resource and runs in a sandboxed iframe with no same-origin server. Any app that makes network requests must configure Content Security Policy (CSP) and possibly CORS.
-
-**CSP** controls what the _browser_ allows. You must declare _all_ origins in {@link types!McpUiResourceMeta.csp `_meta.ui.csp`} ({@link types!McpUiResourceCsp `McpUiResourceCsp`}) โ including `localhost` during development. Declare `connectDomains` for fetch/XHR/WebSocket requests and `resourceDomains` for scripts, stylesheets, images, and fonts.
-
-**CORS** controls what the _API server_ allows. Public APIs that respond with `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *` or use API key authentication work without CORS configuration. For APIs that allowlist specific origins, use {@link types!McpUiResourceMeta.domain `_meta.ui.domain`} to give the app a stable origin that the API server can allowlist. The format is host-specific, so check each host's documentation for its supported format.
-
-
-```ts source="../src/server/index.examples.ts#registerAppResource_withDomain"
-// Computes a stable origin from an MCP server URL for hosting in Claude.
-function computeAppDomainForClaude(mcpServerUrl: string): string {
- const hash = crypto
- .createHash("sha256")
- .update(mcpServerUrl)
- .digest("hex")
- .slice(0, 32);
- return `${hash}.claudemcpcontent.com`;
-}
-
-const APP_DOMAIN = computeAppDomainForClaude("https://example.com/mcp");
-
-registerAppResource(
- server,
- "Company Dashboard",
- "ui://dashboard/view.html",
- {
- description: "Internal dashboard with company data",
- },
- async () => ({
- contents: [
- {
- uri: "ui://dashboard/view.html",
- mimeType: RESOURCE_MIME_TYPE,
- text: dashboardHtml,
- _meta: {
- ui: {
- // CSP: tell browser the app is allowed to make requests
- csp: {
- connectDomains: ["https://api.example.com"],
- },
- // CORS: give app a stable origin for the API server to allowlist
- //
- // (Public APIs that use `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *` or API
- // key auth don't need this.)
- domain: APP_DOMAIN,
- },
- },
- },
- ],
- }),
-);
-```
-
-Note that `_meta.ui.csp` and `_meta.ui.domain` are set in the `contents[]` objects returned by the resource read callback, not in `registerAppResource()`'s config object.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> For full examples that configures CSP, see: [`examples/sheet-music-server/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/sheet-music-server) (`connectDomains`) and [`examples/map-server/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/map-server) (`connectDomains` and `resourceDomains`).

-title: Migrate to v2
-group: Getting Started
-description: Upgrade from ext-apps 1.x to 2.x โ new base MCP SDK peer packages, API changes for Views and hosts, and what stays wire-compatible.
----
-
-# Migrating from ext-apps 1.x to 2.x
-
-ext-apps 2.x is built on the base MCP TypeScript SDK 2.x, which replaced the
-single `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk` package with `@modelcontextprotocol/client`,
-`server`, `core`, `node` and `express`. The MCP Apps wire protocol did not
-change; the breaking changes are in dependencies and in the TypeScript API.
-
-## Host compatibility
-
-The `ui/*` messages exchanged over the iframe channel are byte-identical to
-1.x. A 2.x View runs in a 1.x host and a 2.x host renders 1.x Views. The only
-host-side deltas are in error responses (see below).
-
-## What stays the same
-
-`App` / `AppBridge` constructors, the `on*` setters, `addEventListener`,
-`callServerTool`, `readServerResource`, `registerAppResource`, the React hooks
-and the `_meta.ui.resourceUri` handling are unchanged. Published `.d.ts` files
-now resolve under `moduleResolution: NodeNext` / `Node16` without workarounds
-(#705).
-
-## Peer dependencies by role
-
-| Role | Install |
-| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| View author | `@modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps`, `@modelcontextprotocol/client@^2.0.0`, `zod@^4.2.0` (+ `react`/`react-dom` for `./react`) |
-| Host author | same as View author |
-| MCP server author | View author packages + `@modelcontextprotocol/server@^2.0.0`; for HTTP transports also `@modelcontextprotocol/node@^2.0.0` (`NodeStreamableHTTPServerTransport`) and `@modelcontextprotocol/express@^2.0.0` (`createMcpExpressApp`, which peers on `express`) |
-| CDN / `*-with-deps` | nothing extra: `./app-with-deps` and `./react-with-deps` bundle client, core and zod (about 25% larger than the 1.x bundles) |
-
-`@modelcontextprotocol/client` is a required peer (`App` and `AppBridge` extend
-its `Protocol` class); `@modelcontextprotocol/core` is a required peer that `client` already depends on, so npm installs it without you listing it;
-`@modelcontextprotocol/server` stays optional and is only needed for the
-`./server` helpers. Node.js 20+ is required.
-
-## Breaking changes
-
-- **Peer packages.** `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk@^1` is replaced by the split
- 2.x packages above, all at `^2.0.0`. Remove the 1.x package from your
- project: the two SDKs share no classes or types (a 1.x `McpError` or
- `Client` cannot be passed to 2.x code), even though they speak the same
- wire protocol.
-- **zod 3 dropped.** The peer range is `zod@^4.2.0`. Tool schemas must
- implement Standard JSON Schema (`~standard.jsonSchema`): zod 4.2+, ArkType,
- Valibot. zod 4.0 and 4.1 do not expose `~standard.jsonSchema` and are
- rejected too. Raw zod shapes (`{ q: z.string() }`) still work with
- `registerAppTool` but are deprecated; wrap them with `z.object({...})`.
-- **`App` / `AppBridge` extend `Protocol` from `@modelcontextprotocol/client`.**
- `ProtocolWithEvents` is gone; use the SDK's `Protocol`. The `AppRequest`,
- `AppNotification` and `AppResult` unions are kept as deprecated type
- aliases (nothing in 2.x consumes them) and will be removed in 3.0.
-- **Handler context.** Custom request handlers, `registerAppTool` callbacks
- (server) and `app.registerTool` callbacks (View) receive the SDK 2.x
- context: `extra.signal` โ `extra.mcpReq.signal`, `extra.requestId` โ
- `extra.mcpReq.id`; `extra.sessionId` is unchanged and `extra.authInfo`
- moved to `extra.http?.authInfo`.
-- **`setRequestHandler` / `setNotificationHandler` take method names.**
- `app.setRequestHandler(SomeRequestSchema, handler)` becomes
- `app.setRequestHandler("some/method", { params: SomeParamsSchema }, (params, ctx) => โฆ)`
- for custom methods (the handler receives the parsed params); the two-argument
- `setRequestHandler("tools/call", handler)` form exists only for spec-defined
- method names. The 1.x `(Schema, handler)` form still works on `App` and
- `AppBridge` as a deprecated overload: it logs a one-time warning, hands the
- handler the whole `{ method, params }` message as before, and gives request
- handlers a 1.x-shaped `extra` (`signal`, `requestId`, `sessionId`, `_meta`,
- `sendRequest`, `sendNotification`, `authInfo`; exported as
- `LegacyRequestHandlerExtra`). It will be removed in 3.0.
-- **Double-registration guard covers the SDK's own handlers.** Registering a
- handler for `notifications/progress` or `notifications/cancelled` (which
- the base `Protocol` already owns) now throws `already registered`, as
- `ping` and the `on*`-owned methods did in 1.x. Use `addEventListener` or
- the SDK's progress callbacks instead of replacing these.
-- **Errors.** Remote JSON-RPC errors are `ProtocolError` (numeric `code`);
- local conditions are `SdkError` with a string `code`: request timeout โ
- `"REQUEST_TIMEOUT"`, connection closed โ `"CONNECTION_CLOSED"`. Cancelling a
- request with an `AbortSignal` also rejects with `"REQUEST_TIMEOUT"` (the
- message is the abort reason). Messages no longer carry the `MCP error N:`
- prefix.
- A resource-not-found reply that carries `data.uri` arrives as
- `ResourceNotFoundError` (a `ProtocolError` subclass, `code` `-32602`, with a
- `.uri` getter).
-
-## Host-side wire deltas

-Observed when a 2.x `AppBridge` answers a View; a 1.x View sees these too.
-
-| Situation | 1.x host | 2.x host |
-| --------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------- |
-| A handler throws `-32002` (resource not found) | `error.code: -32002` | `error.code: -32602` (the SDK never emits `-32002`) |
-| Invalid params on a `ui/*` request | `-32603` with a zod issue dump | `-32602 Invalid params for : โฆ` |
-| Error message text | `MCP error -32602: โฆ` prefix | plain message |
-| `tools/call` to an unknown tool through a 2.x `McpServer` | `result.isError: true` | JSON-RPC error `-32602` (`callServerTool` rejects) |
-
-## `schema.json`
-
-The published `./schema.json` export is regenerated from the 2.x core schemas:
-
-- `McpUiToolResultNotification.params.structuredContent` is any JSON value (was
- `type: "object"`).
-- `McpUiToolResultNotification.params._meta` documents
- `io.modelcontextprotocol/serverInfo` and no longer lists `progressToken` /
- `related-task` (both still pass through).
-- `McpUiHostContext.toolInfo.tool.outputSchema` is a loose object (only
- `$schema` is documented); `inputSchema.properties` values are now typed as
- JSON values.
-- A recursive JSON-value definition (`__schema0`) is added under the `$defs` of
- `McpUiHostContext`, `McpUiHostContextChangedNotification` and
- `McpUiInitializeResult`.
-
-## Checklist
-
-1. `npm uninstall @modelcontextprotocol/sdk` and install the packages for your
- role from the table above.
-2. Replace `sdk/...` imports with the split packages (`sdk/server/mcp.js` โ
- `@modelcontextprotocol/server`, `sdk/server/streamableHttp.js` โ
- `NodeStreamableHTTPServerTransport` from `@modelcontextprotocol/node`,
- `sdk/server/stdio.js` โ `@modelcontextprotocol/server/stdio`, hand-written
- Express routing โ `createMcpExpressApp` from `@modelcontextprotocol/express`,
- `sdk/types.js` โ `@modelcontextprotocol/client` or `server` for the types,
- `@modelcontextprotocol/core` for the zod schemas).
-3. Wrap raw zod shapes with `z.object({...})`.
-4. Update custom handlers to the `extra.mcpReq.*` context and method-keyed
- `setRequestHandler` calls.
-5. Replace `McpError` / numeric-code checks with `ProtocolError` / `SdkError`.

-title: Overview
-group: Getting Started
-description: MCP Apps extends the Model Context Protocol to let MCP servers deliver interactive UIs โ charts, forms, dashboards โ rendered securely in iframes inside any compliant host.
----
-
-# MCP Apps Overview
-
-MCP Apps is an extension to the Model Context Protocol that enables MCP servers to deliver interactive user interfaces to hosts. It defines how servers declare UI resources, how hosts render them securely in iframes, and how the two communicate.
-
-## Why MCP Apps?
-
-MCP allows servers to expose tools and resources to AI assistants, but responses are limited to text and structured data. Many use cases need more:
-
-- **Data visualization** โ Charts, graphs, and dashboards that update as data changes
-- **Rich media** โ Video players, audio waveforms, 3D models
-- **Interactive forms** โ Multi-step wizards, configuration panels, approval workflows
-- **Real-time displays** โ Live logs, progress indicators, streaming content
-
-Before MCP Apps, each host implemented UI support differently. MCP-UI, OpenAI's Apps SDK, and custom implementations all solved similar problems with incompatible approaches. Server developers had to maintain separate adapters for each host, and security models varied.
-
-MCP Apps standardizes this. Servers declare their UIs once; any compliant host can render them. Security is consistent โ sandboxed iframes, auditable communication, declarative CSP. The result is write-once portability with predictable behavior.
-
-## Progressive Enhancement
-
-MCP Apps is designed for graceful degradation. Hosts advertise their UI support when connecting to servers; servers check these capabilities before registering UI-enabled tools. If a host doesn't support MCP Apps, tools still work โ they just return text instead of UI.
-
-This is fundamental: UI is a progressive enhancement, not a requirement. Your server works everywhere; hosts that support UI get a richer experience.
-
-See the [Client<>Server Capability Negotiation](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/specification/2026-01-26/apps.mdx#clientserver-capability-negotiation) section of the specification.
-
-## Architecture
-
-In MCP Apps, three entities work together:
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart LR
- subgraph Server ["MCP Server"]
- T[Tools]
- R[UI Resources]
- end
-
- subgraph Host ["Host (Chat Client)"]
- B[AppBridge]
- end
-
- subgraph View ["View (iframe)"]
- A[App]
- end
-
- Server <-->|MCP Protocol| Host
- Host <-->|postMessage| View
-```
-
-- **Server** โ A standard MCP server that declares tools and UI resources. The server defines what the UI looks like (HTML) and what tools it exposes.
-- **Host** โ The chat client (e.g., Claude Desktop) that connects to servers, embeds Views in iframes, and proxies communication between them.
-- **View** โ The UI running inside a sandboxed iframe. It receives tool data from the Host and can call server tools or send messages back to the chat.
-
-The View's `App` and the Host's `AppBridge` both subclass the `Protocol` class
-exported by `@modelcontextprotocol/client` for the iframe channel. A separate outer `Client` connects
-the Host to the actual MCP Server. Keeping those two connections separate
-preserves the Apps-only iframe handshake and prevents iframe capabilities from
-leaking into the server connection.
-

-```
-
-1. **Discovery** โ The Host learns about tools and their UI resources when connecting to the server.
-2. **Initialization** โ When a UI tool is called, the Host renders the iframe. The View sends `ui/initialize` (the only handshake on the iframe channel) and receives host context (theme, capabilities, container dimensions). `ui/initialize` is authoritative for Apps capabilities and identity, and `ui/notifications/initialized` is the public View-ready signal.
-3. **Data delivery** โ The Host sends tool arguments and, once available, tool results to the View. Results include both `content` (text for the model's context) and optionally `structuredContent` (data optimized for UI rendering). This separation lets servers provide rich data to the UI without bloating the model's context.
-4. **Interactive phase** โ The user interacts with the View. The View can call tools, send messages, or update context.
-5. **Teardown** โ Before unmounting, the Host notifies the View so it can save state or release resources.
-
-See the [Lifecycle](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/specification/2026-01-26/apps.mdx#lifecycle) section of the specification for the complete sequence diagrams.
-
-## UI Resources
-
-UI resources are HTML templates that servers declare using the `ui://` URI scheme. When a tool with UI metadata is called, the Host fetches the corresponding resource and renders it.
-
-Resources are declared upfront, during tool registration. This design enables:
-
-- **Prefetching** โ Hosts can cache templates before tool execution
-- **Separation of concerns** โ Templates (presentation) are separate from tool results (data)
-- **Review** โ Hosts can inspect UI templates during connection setup
-
-See the [UI Resource Format](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/specification/2026-01-26/apps.mdx#ui-resource-format) section of the specification for the full schema.
-
-## Tool-UI Linkage
-
-Tools reference their UI templates through metadata. When a server registers a tool, it includes a `_meta.ui` object pointing to a `ui://` resource:
-
-```json
-"_meta": {
- "ui": { "resourceUri": "ui://weather/forecast" }
-}
-```
-
-When this tool is called, the Host:
-
-1. Fetches the UI resource
-2. Renders it in a sandboxed iframe
-3. Passes the tool arguments and results to the View
-
-See the [Resource Discovery](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/specification/2026-01-26/apps.mdx#resource-discovery) section of the specification for details.
-
-## Bidirectional Communication
-
-Views communicate with Hosts using JSON-RPC over [`postMessage`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/postMessage). From a View, you can:
-
-**Interact with the server:**
-
-- Call server tools (`tools/call`)
-- Read server resources (`resources/read`)
-
-**Interact with the chat:**
-
-- Send messages to the conversation (`ui/message`)
-- Update model context (`ui/update-model-context`)
-
-**Request host actions:**
-
-- Open external links (`ui/open-link`)
-
-See the {@link app!App} class for the View-side API and the [Communication Protocol](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/specification/2026-01-26/apps.mdx#communication-protocol) section of the specification.
-
-## Tool Visibility
-
-Tools can be visible to the model, the app, or both. By default, tools are visible to both (`visibility: ["model", "app"]`).
-
-App-only tools (`visibility: ["app"]`) are useful for UI interactions that shouldn't clutter the agent's context โ things like refresh buttons, pagination controls, or form submissions. The model never sees these tools; they exist purely for the View to call.
-
-## Host Context
-
-When a View initializes, the Host provides context about the environment it's running in. This includes:
-
-- **Theme** โ Light or dark mode preference
-- **Locale and timezone** โ For formatting dates, numbers, and text
-- **Display mode** โ Whether the View is inline, fullscreen, or picture-in-picture
-- **Container dimensions** โ The available space, which may be fixed by the Host or flexible based on content
-- **Platform** โ Web, desktop, or mobile
-
-Views use this context to adapt their presentation. For example, a chart might use dark colors when the host is in dark mode, or a form might adjust its layout for mobile platforms.
-
-The Host notifies Views when context changes (e.g., the user toggles dark mode), allowing dynamic updates without reloading.
-
-See the [Host Context](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/specification/2026-01-26/apps.mdx#host-context-in-mcpuiinitializeresult) section of the specification for the full schema.
-
-## Theming
-
-Hosts provide CSS custom properties for colors, typography, and borders. Views use these variables with fallbacks to match the host's visual style:
-
-```css
-.container {
- background: var(--color-background-primary, #ffffff);
- color: var(--color-text-primary, #000000);
-}
-```
-
-Theme changes (light/dark toggle) are sent via notifications, allowing Views to update dynamically.
-
-See the [Theming](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/specification/2026-01-26/apps.mdx#theming) section of the specification for the full list of CSS variables.
-
-## Display Modes
-
-Views can be displayed in different modes:
-
-- **inline** โ Embedded in the chat flow. Best for content that's part of the conversation (charts, previews, forms).
-- **fullscreen** โ Takes over the window. Use for immersive experiences like editors, games, or complex dashboards.
-- **pip** โ Picture-in-picture overlay. Useful for persistent widgets (music player, timer) that should remain visible while the user continues chatting.
-
-Views declare which modes they support; Hosts declare which they can provide. Views can request mode changes, but the Host decides whether to honor them โ the Host always has final say over its own UI.
-
-See the [Display Modes](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/specification/2026-01-26/apps.mdx#display-modes) section of the specification.
-
-## Security
-
-All Views run in sandboxed iframes with no access to the Host's DOM, cookies, or storage. Communication happens only through [`postMessage`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/postMessage), making it auditable.
-
-Servers declare which network domains their UI needs via [CSP](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Guides/CSP) metadata. Hosts enforce these declarations โ if no domains are declared, no external connections are allowed. This "restrictive by default" approach prevents data exfiltration to undeclared servers.
-
-See the [Security Implications](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/specification/2026-01-26/apps.mdx#security-implications) section of the specification for the threat model and mitigations.

-# MCP Apps Patterns
-
-This document covers common patterns and recipes for building MCP Apps.
-
-## Tools that are private to Apps
-
-Set {@link types!McpUiToolMeta.visibility `Tool._meta.ui.visibility`} to `["app"]` to make tools only callable by Apps (hidden from the model). This is useful for UI-driven actions like updating server-side state, polling, or other interactions that shouldn't appear in the model's tool list.
-
-
-```ts source="../src/server/index.examples.ts#registerAppTool_appOnlyVisibility"
-registerAppTool(
- server,
- "update-quantity",
- {
- description: "Update item quantity in cart",
- inputSchema: z.object({ itemId: z.string(), quantity: z.number() }),
- _meta: {
- ui: {
- resourceUri: "ui://shop/cart.html",
- visibility: ["app"],
- },
- },
- },
- async ({ itemId, quantity }) => {
- const cart = await updateCartItem(itemId, quantity);
- return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(cart) }] };
- },
-);
-```
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> For full examples that implement this pattern, see: [`examples/system-monitor-server/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/system-monitor-server) and [`examples/pdf-server/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/pdf-server).
-
-## Polling for live data
-
-For real-time dashboards or monitoring views, use an app-only tool (with `visibility: ["app"]`) that the App polls at regular intervals.
-
-**Vanilla JS:**
-
-
-```ts source="./patterns.tsx#pollingVanillaJs"
-let intervalId: number | null = null;
-
-async function poll() {
- const result = await app.callServerTool({
- name: "poll-data",
- arguments: {},
- });
- updateUI(result.structuredContent);
-}
-
-function startPolling() {
- if (intervalId !== null) return;
- poll();
- intervalId = window.setInterval(poll, 2000);
-}
-
-function stopPolling() {
- if (intervalId === null) return;
- clearInterval(intervalId);
- intervalId = null;
-}
-
-// Clean up when host tears down the view
-app.onteardown = async () => {
- stopPolling();
- return {};
-};
-```
-
-**React:**
-
-

-## Reading large amounts of data via chunked tool calls
-
-Some host platforms have size limits on tool call responses, so large files (PDFs, images, etc.) cannot be sent in a single response. Use an app-only tool with chunked responses to bypass these limits while keeping the data out of model context.
-
-**Server-side**: Register an app-only tool that returns data in chunks with pagination metadata:
-
-
-```tsx source="./patterns.tsx#chunkedDataServer"
-// Define the chunk response schema
-const DataChunkSchema = z.object({
- bytes: z.string(), // base64-encoded data
- offset: z.number(),
- byteCount: z.number(),
- totalBytes: z.number(),
- hasMore: z.boolean(),
-});
-
-const MAX_CHUNK_BYTES = 500 * 1024; // 500KB per chunk
-
-registerAppTool(
- server,
- "read_data_bytes",
- {
- title: "Read Data Bytes",
- description: "Load binary data in chunks",
- inputSchema: z.object({
- id: z.string().describe("Resource identifier"),
- offset: z.number().min(0).default(0).describe("Byte offset"),
- byteCount: z
- .number()
- .default(MAX_CHUNK_BYTES)
- .describe("Bytes to read"),
- }),
- outputSchema: DataChunkSchema,
- // Hidden from model - only callable by the App
- _meta: { ui: { visibility: ["app"] } },
- },
- async ({ id, offset, byteCount }): Promise => {
- const data = await loadData(id); // Your data loading logic
- const chunk = data.slice(offset, offset + byteCount);
-
- return {
- content: [{ type: "text", text: `${chunk.length} bytes at ${offset}` }],
- structuredContent: {
- bytes: Buffer.from(chunk).toString("base64"),
- offset,
- byteCount: chunk.length,
- totalBytes: data.length,
- hasMore: offset + chunk.length < data.length,
- },
- };
- },
-);
-```
-
-**Client-side**: Loop calling the tool until all chunks are received:
-
-
-```tsx source="./patterns.tsx#chunkedDataClient"
-interface DataChunk {
- bytes: string; // base64
- offset: number;
- byteCount: number;
- totalBytes: number;
- hasMore: boolean;
-}
-
-async function loadDataInChunks(
- id: string,
- onProgress?: (loaded: number, total: number) => void,
-): Promise {
- const CHUNK_SIZE = 500 * 1024; // 500KB chunks
- const chunks: Uint8Array[] = [];
- let offset = 0;
- let totalBytes = 0;
- let hasMore = true;
-
- while (hasMore) {
- const result = await app.callServerTool({
- name: "read_data_bytes",
- arguments: { id, offset, byteCount: CHUNK_SIZE },
- });
-
- if (result.isError || !result.structuredContent) {
- throw new Error("Failed to load data chunk");
- }
-
- const chunk = result.structuredContent as unknown as DataChunk;
- totalBytes = chunk.totalBytes;
- hasMore = chunk.hasMore;
-
- // Decode base64 to bytes
- const binaryString = atob(chunk.bytes);
- const bytes = new Uint8Array(binaryString.length);
- for (let i = 0; i < binaryString.length; i++) {
- bytes[i] = binaryString.charCodeAt(i);
- }
- chunks.push(bytes);
-
- offset += chunk.byteCount;
- onProgress?.(offset, totalBytes);
- }
-
- // Combine all chunks into single array
- const fullData = new Uint8Array(totalBytes);
- let pos = 0;
- for (const chunk of chunks) {
- fullData.set(chunk, pos);
- pos += chunk.length;
- }
-
- return fullData;
-}
-
-// Usage: load data with progress updates
-loadDataInChunks(resourceId, (loaded, total) => {
- console.log(`Loading: ${Math.round((loaded / total) * 100)}%`);
-}).then((data) => {
- console.log(`Loaded ${data.length} bytes`);
-});
-```
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> For a full example that implements this pattern, see: [`examples/pdf-server/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/pdf-server).
-
-## Giving errors back to the model
-
-**Server-side**: Tool handler validates inputs and returns `{ isError: true, content: [...] }`. The model receives this error through the normal tool call response.
-
-**Client-side**: If a runtime error occurs (e.g., API failure, permission denied, resource unavailable), use {@link app!App.updateModelContext `updateModelContext`} to inform the model:
-
-
-```ts source="../src/app.examples.ts#App_updateModelContext_reportError"
-try {
- const _stream = await navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ audio: true });
- // ... use _stream for transcription
-} catch (err) {
- // Inform the model that the app is in a degraded state
- await app.updateModelContext({
- content: [
- {
- type: "text",
- text: "Error: transcription unavailable",
- },
- ],
- });
-}
-```
-
-## Serving binary blobs via resources
-
-Binary content (e.g., video) can be served via MCP resources as base64-encoded blobs. The server returns the data in the `blob` field of the resource content, and the App fetches it via `resources/read` for use in the browser.
-
-**Server-side**: Register a resource that returns binary data in the `blob` field:
-
-
-```ts source="./patterns.tsx#binaryBlobResourceServer"
-server.registerResource(
- "Video",
- new ResourceTemplate("video://{id}", { list: undefined }),
- {
- description: "Video data served as base64 blob",
- mimeType: "video/mp4",
- },
- async (uri, { id }): Promise => {
- // Fetch or load your binary data
- const idString = Array.isArray(id) ? id[0] : id;
- const buffer = await getVideoData(idString);
- const blob = Buffer.from(buffer).toString("base64");
-
- return { contents: [{ uri: uri.href, mimeType: "video/mp4", blob }] };
- },
-);
-```
-
-**Client-side**: Fetch the resource and convert the base64 blob to a data URI:
-
-
-```ts source="./patterns.tsx#binaryBlobResourceClient"
-const result = await app.readServerResource({ uri: `video://${videoId}` });
-
-const content = result.contents[0];
-if (!content || !("blob" in content)) {
- throw new Error("Resource did not contain blob data");
-}
-
-const videoEl = document.querySelector("video")!;
-videoEl.src = `data:${content.mimeType!};base64,${content.blob}`;
-```
-

-## Configuring CSP and CORS
-
-See the dedicated [CSP & CORS](./csp-cors.md) guide in the Security section.
-
-## Adapting to host context (theme, styling, fonts, and safe areas)
-
-The host provides context about its environment via {@link types!McpUiHostContext `McpUiHostContext`}. Use this to adapt your app's appearance and layout:
-
-- **Theme** โ Use `[data-theme="dark"]` selectors or `light-dark()` function for theme-aware styles
-- **CSS variables** โ Use `var(--color-background-primary)`, etc. in your CSS (see {@link types!McpUiStyleVariableKey `McpUiStyleVariableKey`} for a full list)
-- **Fonts** โ Use `var(--font-sans)` or `var(--font-mono)` with fallbacks (e.g., `font-family: var(--font-sans, system-ui, sans-serif)`)
-- **Safe area insets** โ Apply padding to avoid device notches, rounded corners, or system UI overlays
-
-**Vanilla JS:**
-
-
-```tsx source="./patterns.tsx#hostContextVanillaJs"
-function applyHostContext(ctx: McpUiHostContext) {
- if (ctx.theme) {
- applyDocumentTheme(ctx.theme);
- }
- if (ctx.styles?.variables) {
- applyHostStyleVariables(ctx.styles.variables);
- }
- if (ctx.styles?.css?.fonts) {
- applyHostFonts(ctx.styles.css.fonts);
- }
- if (ctx.safeAreaInsets) {
- mainEl.style.paddingTop = `${ctx.safeAreaInsets.top}px`;
- mainEl.style.paddingRight = `${ctx.safeAreaInsets.right}px`;
- mainEl.style.paddingBottom = `${ctx.safeAreaInsets.bottom}px`;
- mainEl.style.paddingLeft = `${ctx.safeAreaInsets.left}px`;
- }
-}
-
-// Apply when host context changes
-app.onhostcontextchanged = applyHostContext;
-
-// Apply initial context after connecting
-app.connect().then(() => {
- const ctx = app.getHostContext();
- if (ctx) {
- applyHostContext(ctx);
- }
-});
-```
-
-**React:**
-
-
-```tsx source="./patterns.tsx#hostContextReact"
-function MyApp() {
- const [hostContext, setHostContext] = useState();
-
- const { app } = useApp({
- appInfo: { name: "MyApp", version: "1.0.0" },
- capabilities: {},
- onAppCreated: (app) => {
- app.onhostcontextchanged = (ctx) => {
- setHostContext((prev) => ({ ...prev, ...ctx }));
- };
- },
- });
-
- // Set initial host context after connection
- useEffect(() => {
- if (app) {
- setHostContext(app.getHostContext());
- }
- }, [app]);
-
- // Apply styles when host context changes
- useEffect(() => {
- if (hostContext?.theme) {
- applyDocumentTheme(hostContext.theme);
- }
- if (hostContext?.styles?.variables) {
- applyHostStyleVariables(hostContext.styles.variables);
- }
- if (hostContext?.styles?.css?.fonts) {
- applyHostFonts(hostContext.styles.css.fonts);
- }
- }, [hostContext]);
-
- return (
-
- Styled with host CSS variables, fonts, and safe area insets
-
- );
-}
-```

-
-## Entering / exiting fullscreen
-
-Toggle fullscreen mode by calling {@link app!App.requestDisplayMode `requestDisplayMode`}:
-
-
-```ts source="../src/app.examples.ts#App_requestDisplayMode_toggle"
-const container = document.getElementById("main")!;
-const ctx = app.getHostContext();
-const newMode = ctx?.displayMode === "inline" ? "fullscreen" : "inline";
-if (ctx?.availableDisplayModes?.includes(newMode)) {
- const result = await app.requestDisplayMode({ mode: newMode });
- container.classList.toggle("fullscreen", result.mode === "fullscreen");
-}
-```
-
-Listen for display mode changes via {@link app!App.onhostcontextchanged `onhostcontextchanged`} to update your UI:
-
-
-```ts source="../src/app.examples.ts#App_onhostcontextchanged_respondToDisplayMode"
-app.onhostcontextchanged = (ctx) => {
- // Adjust to current display mode
- if (ctx.displayMode) {
- const container = document.getElementById("main")!;
- const isFullscreen = ctx.displayMode === "fullscreen";
- container.classList.toggle("fullscreen", isFullscreen);
- }
-
- // Adjust display mode controls
- if (ctx.availableDisplayModes) {
- const fullscreenBtn = document.getElementById("fullscreen-btn")!;
- const canFullscreen = ctx.availableDisplayModes.includes("fullscreen");
- fullscreenBtn.style.display = canFullscreen ? "block" : "none";
- }
-};
-```
-
-In fullscreen mode, remove the container's border radius so content extends to the viewport edges:
-
-```css
-#main {
- border-radius: var(--border-radius-lg);
-
- &.fullscreen {
- border-radius: 0;
- }
-}
-```

-
-## Passing contextual information from the App to the model
-
-Use {@link app!App.updateModelContext `updateModelContext`} to keep the model informed about what the user is viewing or interacting with. Structure the content with YAML frontmatter for easy parsing:
-
-
-```ts source="../src/app.examples.ts#App_updateModelContext_appState"
-const markdown = `---
-item-count: ${itemList.length}
-total-cost: ${totalCost}
-currency: ${currency}
----
-
-User is viewing their shopping cart with ${itemList.length} items selected:
-
-${itemList.map((item) => `- ${item}`).join("\n")}`;
-
-await app.updateModelContext({
- content: [{ type: "text", text: markdown }],
-});
-```
-

-
-## Sending large follow-up messages
-
-When you need to send more data than fits in a message, use {@link app!App.updateModelContext `updateModelContext`} to set the context first, then {@link app!App.sendMessage `sendMessage`} with a brief prompt to trigger a response:
-
-
-```ts source="../src/app.examples.ts#App_sendMessage_withLargeContext"
-const markdown = `---
-word-count: ${fullTranscript.split(/\s+/).length}
-speaker-names: ${speakerNames.join(", ")}
----
-
-${fullTranscript}`;
-
-// Offload long transcript to model context
-await app.updateModelContext({ content: [{ type: "text", text: markdown }] });
-
-// Send brief trigger message
-await app.sendMessage({
- role: "user",
- content: [{ type: "text", text: "Summarize the key points" }],
-});
-```
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> For a full example that implements this pattern, see: [`examples/transcript-server/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/transcript-server).
-
-## Persisting view state
-
-For recoverable view state (e.g., current page in a PDF viewer, camera position in a map), use [`localStorage`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/localStorage) with a stable identifier provided by the server.
-
-**Server-side**: Tool handler generates a unique `viewUUID` and returns it in `CallToolResult._meta.viewUUID`:
-
-
-```tsx source="./patterns.tsx#persistDataServer"
-// In your tool callback, include viewUUID in the result metadata.
-return {
- content: [{ type: "text", text: `Displaying PDF viewer for "${title}"` }],
- structuredContent: { url, title, pageCount, initialPage: 1 },
- _meta: {
- viewUUID: randomUUID(),
- },
-};
-```
-
-**Client-side**: Receive the UUID in {@link app!App.ontoolresult `ontoolresult`} and use it as the storage key:
-
-
-```tsx source="./patterns.tsx#persistData"
-// Store the viewUUID received from the server
-let viewUUID: string | undefined;
-
-// Helper to save state to localStorage
-function saveState(state: T): void {
- if (!viewUUID) return;
- try {
- localStorage.setItem(viewUUID, JSON.stringify(state));
- } catch (err) {
- console.error("Failed to save view state:", err);
- }
-}
-
-// Helper to load state from localStorage
-function loadState(): T | null {
- if (!viewUUID) return null;
- try {
- const saved = localStorage.getItem(viewUUID);
- return saved ? (JSON.parse(saved) as T) : null;
- } catch (err) {
- console.error("Failed to load view state:", err);
- return null;
- }
-}
-
-// Receive viewUUID from the tool result
-app.ontoolresult = (result) => {
- viewUUID = result._meta?.viewUUID
- ? String(result._meta.viewUUID)
- : undefined;
-
- // Restore any previously saved state
- const savedState = loadState<{ currentPage: number }>();
- if (savedState) {
- // Apply restored state to your UI...
- }
-};
-
-// Call saveState() whenever your view state changes
-// e.g., saveState({ currentPage: 5 });
-```
-
-For state that represents user effort (e.g., saved bookmarks, annotations, custom configurations), consider persisting it server-side using [app-only tools](#tools-that-are-private-to-apps) instead. Pass the `viewUUID` to the app-only tool to scope the saved data to that view instance.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> For full examples using `localStorage`, see: [`examples/pdf-server/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/pdf-server) (persists current page) and [`examples/map-server/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/map-server) (persists camera position).
-
-## Pausing computation-heavy views when offscreen
-
-Views with animations, WebGL rendering, or polling can consume significant CPU/GPU even when scrolled offscreen. Use [`IntersectionObserver`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Intersection_Observer_API) to pause expensive operations when the view isn't visible:
-
-
-```tsx source="./patterns.tsx#visibilityBasedPause"
-// Use IntersectionObserver to pause when view scrolls out of view
-const observer = new IntersectionObserver((entries) => {
- entries.forEach((entry) => {
- if (entry.isIntersecting) {
- animation.play(); // or startPolling(), etc
- } else {
- animation.pause(); // or stopPolling(), etc
- }
- });
-});
-observer.observe(container);
-
-// Clean up when the host tears down the view
-app.onteardown = async () => {
- observer.disconnect();
- animation.pause();
- return {};
-};
-```
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> For full examples that implement this pattern, see: [`examples/shadertoy-server/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/shadertoy-server) and [`examples/threejs-server/`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/threejs-server).
-
-## Lowering perceived latency
-
-Use {@link app!App.ontoolinputpartial `ontoolinputpartial`} to receive streaming tool arguments as they arrive. This lets you show a loading preview before the complete input is available, such as streaming code into a `
` tag before executing it, partially rendering a table as data arrives, or incrementally populating a chart.
-
-
-```ts source="../src/app.examples.ts#App_ontoolinputpartial_progressiveRendering"
-const codePreview = document.querySelector("#code-preview")!;
-const canvas = document.querySelector("#canvas")!;
-
-app.ontoolinputpartial = (params) => {
- codePreview.textContent = (params.arguments?.code as string) ?? "";
- codePreview.style.display = "block";
- canvas.style.display = "none";
-};
-
-app.ontoolinput = (params) => {
- codePreview.style.display = "none";
- canvas.style.display = "block";
- render(params.arguments?.code as string);
-};
-```
-
-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> Partial arguments are "healed" JSON โ the host closes unclosed brackets/braces to produce valid JSON. This means objects may be incomplete (e.g., the last item in an array may be truncated). Don't rely on partial data for critical operations; use it only for preview UI.
-

-description: Build your first MCP App step by step โ create an MCP server with an interactive View that renders inside Claude Desktop and other MCP hosts.
---
# Build Your First MCP App
-This tutorial walks you through building an MCP Appโa tool with an interactive **View** (a UI that renders inside an iframe) that displays in MCP hosts like Claude Desktop.
-
-> [!TIP]
-> Feel like vibe coding instead? Try the [MCP Apps agent skills](./agent-skills.md).
+This tutorial walks you through building an MCP Appโa tool with an interactive UI that renders inside MCP hosts like Claude Desktop.
## What You'll Build
-A simple app that fetches the current server time and displays it in an interactive View. You'll learn the core pattern: **MCP Apps = Tool + UI Resource**. The complete example is available in [`examples/quickstart`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/quickstart).
+A simple app that fetches the current server time and displays it in a clickable UI. You'll learn the core pattern: **MCP Apps = Tool + UI Resource**.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The complete example is available at [`examples/basic-server-vanillajs`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-server-vanillajs).
## Prerequisites
-This tutorial assumes you've built an MCP server before and are comfortable with [Tools](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/learn/server-concepts#tools) and [Resources](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/learn/server-concepts#resources). If not, the [official MCP quickstart](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/develop/build-server) is a good place to start.
+- Familiarity with MCP concepts, especially [Tools](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/learn/server-concepts#tools) and [Resources](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/learn/server-concepts#resources)
+- Familiarity with the [MCP TypeScript SDK](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk)
+- Node.js 18+
-We'll use the [MCP TypeScript SDK](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk) to build the server.
+> [!TIP]
+> New to building MCP servers? Start with the [official MCP quickstart guide](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/develop/build-server) to learn the core concepts first.
-You'll also need Node.js 20+.
+## 1. Project Setup
-## 1. Set up the project
-
-We'll set up a minimal TypeScript project with Vite for bundling.
-
-Start by creating a project directory:
+Create a new directory and initialize:
```bash
mkdir my-mcp-app && cd my-mcp-app
-```
-
-Install the dependencies you'll need:
-
-```bash
npm init -y
-npm install @modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps @modelcontextprotocol/client@^2.0.0 @modelcontextprotocol/server@^2.0.0 @modelcontextprotocol/node@^2.0.0 @modelcontextprotocol/express@^2.0.0 zod@^4.2.0 express cors
-npm install -D typescript vite vite-plugin-singlefile @types/express @types/cors @types/node tsx concurrently cross-env
```
-Configure your [`package.json`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/examples/quickstart/package.json):
+Install dependencies:
```bash
-npm pkg set type=module
-npm pkg set scripts.build="tsc --noEmit && tsc -p tsconfig.server.json && cross-env INPUT=mcp-app.html vite build"
-npm pkg set scripts.start='concurrently --raw "cross-env NODE_ENV=development INPUT=mcp-app.html vite build --watch" "tsx watch main.ts"'
+npm install @modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps @modelcontextprotocol/sdk
+npm install -D typescript vite vite-plugin-singlefile express cors @types/express @types/cors tsx
```
-> [!NOTE]
-> Windows `cmd.exe` users will need to convert quotes in the above command: `npm pkg set scripts.start="concurrently --raw ""cross-env NODE_ENV=development INPUT=mcp-app.html vite build --watch"" ""tsx watch main.ts"""`.
+Create `tsconfig.json`:
-
-Create tsconfig.json:
-
-
-```json source="../examples/quickstart/tsconfig.json"
+```json

-
-
-
-
-Create tsconfig.server.json โ for compiling server-side code:

+ "outDir": "dist"
},
- "include": ["server.ts", "main.ts"]
+ "include": ["*.ts", "src/**/*.ts"]
}
```
-
+Create `vite.config.ts` โ this bundles your UI into a single HTML file:
-

-
-const isDevelopment = process.env.NODE_ENV === "development";
-

- },
outDir: "dist",
- emptyOutDir: false,
+ rollupOptions: {
+ input: process.env.INPUT,
+ },
},
});
```
-
+Add to your `package.json`:
-Your `my-mcp-app` directory should now contain:
-
-```
-my-mcp-app/

-## 2. Register the tool and UI resource
+## 2. Create the Server
MCP Apps use a **two-part registration**:
1. A **tool** that the LLM/host calls
-2. A **resource** that contains the View HTML
+2. A **resource** that serves the UI HTML
-The tool's `_meta` field links them together via the resource's URI. When an MCP Apps-capable host calls the tool, it will also read the resource and render the View.

## Next Steps
-- **Continue learning**: The [`basic-server-vanillajs`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-server-vanillajs) example builds on this quickstart with host communication, theming, and lifecycle handlers
+- **Host communication**: Add [`sendMessage()`](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/ext-apps/api/classes/app.App.html#sendmessage), [`sendLog()`](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/ext-apps/api/classes/app.App.html#sendlog), and [`sendOpenLink()`](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/ext-apps/api/classes/app.App.html#sendopenlink) to interact with the host โ see [`src/mcp-app.ts`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/blob/main/examples/basic-server-vanillajs/src/mcp-app.ts)
- **React version**: Compare with [`basic-server-react`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-server-react) for a React-based UI
-- **Other frameworks**: See also [Vue](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-server-vue), [Svelte](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-server-svelte), [Preact](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-server-preact), and [Solid](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-server-solid) examples

-title: Testing MCP Apps
-group: Getting Started
-description: Test MCP Apps locally with the basic-host reference implementation or in production hosts like Claude.ai and VS Code.
----
-
-# Test Your MCP App
-
-This guide covers two approaches for testing your MCP App: using the `basic-host` reference implementation for local development, or using an MCP Apps-compatible host like Claude\.ai or VS Code.
-
-## Test with basic-host
-
-The [`basic-host`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-host) example in this repository is a reference host implementation that lets you select a tool, call it, and see your App UI rendered in a sandboxed iframe.
-
-**Prerequisites:**
-
-- Node.js installed
-- Your MCP server running locally (e.g., at `http://localhost:3001/mcp`)
-
-**Steps:**
-
-1. Clone the repository and install dependencies:
-
- ```bash
- git clone https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps.git
- cd ext-apps
- npm install
- cd examples/basic-host
- ```
-
- The root install runs the package build, including type-checking the
- documentation snippets against the pinned base MCP SDK 2.x packages. Do
- not bypass a failed build before testing the host.
-
-2. Start basic-host, pointing it to your MCP server:
-
- ```bash
- SERVERS='["http://localhost:3001/mcp"]' npm start
- ```
-
- To connect to multiple servers, list them in the array:
-
- ```bash
- SERVERS='["http://localhost:3001/mcp", "http://localhost:3002/mcp"]' npm start
- ```
-
-3. Open http://localhost:8080 in your browser.
-
-4. Select your server from the dropdown, then select a tool with UI support.
-
-5. Enter any required tool input as JSON and click "Call Tool" to see your App render.
-
-### Debugging with basic-host
-
-The basic-host UI includes collapsible panels to help you debug your App:
-
-- **Tool Input** โ The JSON input sent to your tool
-- **Tool Result** โ The result returned by your tool
-- **Messages** โ Messages sent by your App to the model
-- **Model Context** โ Context updates sent by your App
-
-For additional observability, open your browser's developer console. Basic-host logs key events with a `[HOST]` prefix, including server connections, tool calls, App initialization, and App-to-host requests.
-
-## Test with an MCP Apps-compatible host
-
-To test your App in a real conversational environment, install your MCP server in a host that supports MCP Apps:
-
-- Claude\.ai
- - [Remote MCP servers (over HTTP)](https://claude.com/docs/connectors/custom/remote-mcp)
- - [Local MCP servers (over stdio)](https://claude.com/docs/connectors/custom/desktop-extensions)
-- [VS Code (Insiders)](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/customization/mcp-servers)
-- [Goose](https://block.github.io/goose/docs/getting-started/using-extensions/)
-
-Once your server is configured, ask the agent to perform a task related to your App-enhanced tool. For example, if you have a weather App, ask the agent "Show me the current weather."
-
-## Expose local servers with `cloudflared`
-
-Remote hosts like Claude\.ai cannot reach `localhost`. To test a local HTTP server with a remote host, use [`cloudflared`](https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-networks/get-started/create-local-tunnel/) to create a publicly accessible tunnel:
-
-1. Start your MCP server locally (e.g., at `http://localhost:3001/mcp`).
-
-2. Run `cloudflared` to expose your server:
-
- ```bash
- npx cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:3001
- ```
-
-3. Copy the generated URL from the `cloudflared` output (e.g., `https://random-name.trycloudflare.com`).
-
-4. Add that URL as a remote MCP server in your host, appending your MCP endpoint path (e.g., `https://random-name.trycloudflare.com/mcp`).
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> The tunnel URL changes each time you restart `cloudflared`.

-## MCP Client Configuration
-
-Add to your MCP client configuration (stdio transport):
-
-```json
-{
- "mcpServers": {
- "basic-preact": {
- "command": "npx",
- "args": [
- "-y",
- "--silent",
- "--registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/",
- "@modelcontextprotocol/server-basic-preact",
- "--stdio"
- ]
- }
- }
-}
-```
-
-### Local Development
-
-To test local modifications, use this configuration (replace `~/code/ext-apps` with your clone path):
-
-```json
-{
- "mcpServers": {
- "basic-preact": {
- "command": "bash",
- "args": [
- "-c",
- "cd ~/code/ext-apps/examples/basic-server-preact && npm run build >&2 && node dist/index.js --stdio"
- ]
- }

-## MCP Client Configuration
-
-Add to your MCP client configuration (stdio transport):
-
-```json
-{
- "mcpServers": {
- "basic-svelte": {
- "command": "npx",
- "args": [
- "-y",
- "--silent",
- "--registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/",
- "@modelcontextprotocol/server-basic-svelte",
- "--stdio"
- ]
- }
- }
-}
-```
-
-### Local Development
-
-To test local modifications, use this configuration (replace `~/code/ext-apps` with your clone path):
-
-```json
-{
- "mcpServers": {
- "basic-svelte": {
- "command": "bash",
- "args": [
- "-c",
- "cd ~/code/ext-apps/examples/basic-server-svelte && npm run build >&2 && node dist/index.js --stdio"
- ]
- }
- }
-}

-## MCP Client Configuration
-
-Add to your MCP client configuration (stdio transport):
-
-```json
-{
- "mcpServers": {
- "basic-vanillajs": {
- "command": "npx",
- "args": [
- "-y",
- "--silent",
- "--registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/",
- "@modelcontextprotocol/server-basic-vanillajs",
- "--stdio"
- ]
- }
- }
-}
-```
-
-### Local Development
-
-To test local modifications, use this configuration (replace `~/code/ext-apps` with your clone path):
-
-```json
-{
- "mcpServers": {
- "basic-vanillajs": {
- "command": "bash",
- "args": [
- "-c",
- "cd ~/code/ext-apps/examples/basic-server-vanillajs && npm run build >&2 && node dist/index.js --stdio"
- ]
- }
- }
-}
-```

-## MCP Client Configuration
-
-Add to your MCP client configuration (stdio transport):
-
-```json
-{
- "mcpServers": {
- "basic-vue": {
- "command": "npx",
- "args": [
- "-y",
- "--silent",
- "--registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/",
- "@modelcontextprotocol/server-basic-vue",
- "--stdio"
- ]
- }
- }
-}
-```
-
-### Local Development
-
-To test local modifications, use this configuration (replace `~/code/ext-apps` with your clone path):
-
-```json
-{
- "mcpServers": {
- "basic-vue": {
- "command": "bash",
- "args": [
- "-c",
- "cd ~/code/ext-apps/examples/basic-server-vue && npm run build >&2 && node dist/index.js --stdio"

-# Example: Lazy Auth Server
-
-An MCP App example demonstrating **lazy (on-demand) auth**: the server connects and lists tools without any authentication, and only asks for OAuth when a _protected_ tool is actually called โ by answering `401` with a `WWW-Authenticate` header. A public MCP App renders an "Auth me" button; clicking it calls a protected tool via [`callServerTool`](https://apps.extensions.modelcontextprotocol.io/api/classes/app.App.html#callservertool). The host sees the 401, runs the OAuth flow, retries, and the result renders inline.
-
-The embedded OAuth authorization server is a deliberately minimal mock (HS256 JWTs, stateless auth codes, auto-approve consent page) so the whole flow runs from a single process with no external dependencies. It is **not** a production authorization server.
-
-## Tools
-
-| Tool | Auth | Description |
-| ------------------- | ------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `show_auth_button` | public | Renders buttons: "Auth me" (calls `get_secret`), "Revoke token" (calls `revoke_auth_token`) |
-| `get_secret` | **protected** | Returns secret data (requires Bearer token) |
-| `revoke_auth_token` | **protected** | Revokes the caller's **entire auth session** (access + refresh token) โ forces full re-auth |
-| `elicit_url` | public | URL elicitation via `elicitInput` (blocks until the elicitation completes) |
-| `elicit_by_error` | public | URL elicitation via the `-32042` (`UrlElicitationRequired`) error; succeeds on retry after completion |
-
-## Getting Started
-
-```bash
-npm install
-npm start
-# โ MCP endpoint at http://localhost:3097/mcp
-```
-
-To test with a remote MCP host, expose the server through a public tunnel (see [Testing MCP Apps](../../docs/testing-mcp-apps.md)) and set `PUBLIC_URL` to the tunnel URL so OAuth metadata and callback URLs use it:
-
-```bash
-PUBLIC_URL=https:// npm start
-```
-
-This example is HTTP-only (no stdio mode): the lazy-auth flow relies on HTTP status codes and OAuth endpoints.
-
-## Environment Variables
-
-| Var | Required | Description |
-| --------------------------- | ----------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `JWT_SECRET` | recommended | 32+ byte secret for HS256 signing (`openssl rand -hex 32`). A dev-only default is used if unset. |
-| `PORT` | no | Local port (default 3097) |
-| `PUBLIC_URL` | non-local | Public base URL of the server (e.g. your tunnel URL). Required for non-localhost deployments; client-supplied `Host` headers are only trusted for loopback hosts |
-| `ACCESS_TOKEN_TTL_SECONDS` | no | Default access-token lifetime (default **30**, short on purpose so you can watch the host's refresh flow kick in) |
-| `REFRESH_TOKEN_TTL_SECONDS` | no | Default refresh-token lifetime (default **300**). Between the access and refresh TTLs, calls succeed via silent refresh; past it, a full re-auth is required |
-| `REACTIVE_AUTH_ONLY` | no | Set `1` to remove auth metadata from the root `/.well-known/oauth-*` paths so hosts can't discover auth preemptively โ discovery then only happens via the 401 |
-
-### Per-connection token lifetimes
-
-The short defaults are great for watching the refresh flow, but slow or automated clients may want tokens that survive a whole session. Any client can request a different access-token lifetime by connecting to a TTL-scoped MCP endpoint path (capped at 24 hours):
-
-```
-https:///ttl/3600/mcp โ tokens for this connection live 1 hour
-```
-
-This works through [RFC 8707 resource indicators](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8707): MCP hosts send the MCP server URL as the `resource` parameter in OAuth authorization and token requests, and this server issues tokens for that grant with the lifetime encoded in the path (refresh tokens are extended to at least match). The TTL is a _path_ segment rather than a query param because hosts canonicalize resource indicators and strip query strings. Each TTL endpoint also enforces its value as a maximum token age, so connecting to a path with a _lower_ TTL than a token's issued lifetime forces the refresh flow. To exercise the full **re-auth** flow, call the `revoke_auth_token` tool.
-
-## Mounting under a base path
-
-`createApp()` can also be mounted inside another Express app, so an existing server can host this example at a sub-path of its own origin:
-
-```ts
-import { createApp } from "@modelcontextprotocol/server-lazy-auth";
-
-hostApp.use("/lazy-auth", createApp());
-// โ MCP endpoint at https:///lazy-auth/mcp
-```
-
-All advertised URLs (OAuth metadata, `WWW-Authenticate` `resource_metadata`, PRM `resource`, elicitation callbacks) include the mount path automatically, derived from Express's `req.baseUrl`. When `PUBLIC_URL` is set, it must include the mount path (e.g. `https://example.com/lazy-auth`).
-
-One thing the mounted app cannot do for itself: [RFC 8414](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8414#section-3) / [RFC 9728](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9728) put well-known discovery documents at the _root_ of the origin with the path inserted after the well-known prefix (`/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server/lazy-auth`), and MCP SDK clients only try that insertion form. The host app must rewrite those root paths into the mount before its other routes:
-
-```ts
-hostApp.use((req, _res, next) => {
- const m = req.url.match(
- /^\/\.well-known\/(oauth-authorization-server|oauth-protected-resource)\/lazy-auth(\/.*)?$/,
- );
- if (m) req.url = `/lazy-auth/.well-known/${m[1]}${m[2] ?? ""}`;
- next();
-});
-```
-
-Rewriting into the mount (rather than calling the sub-app directly) keeps `req.baseUrl` โ and therefore every advertised URL โ consistent.
-
-## How It Works
-
-1. **Connect without auth** โ `initialize`, `tools/list`, and public tool calls succeed with no `Authorization` header.
-2. **Protected tool โ 401** โ when `get_secret` or `revoke_auth_token` is called without a (valid) Bearer token, the server responds `401` with `WWW-Authenticate: Bearer resource_metadata="โฆ/auth/prm"`.
-3. **Discovery** โ the host follows `resource_metadata` to the protected-resource metadata (RFC 9728), which points at the authorization server metadata (RFC 8414).
-4. **OAuth flow** โ the host runs the authorization-code + PKCE flow against the mock `/authorize` and `/token` endpoints (a small consent page keeps the popup visible).
-5. **Retry** โ the host retries the tool call with the Bearer token and the secret renders inline in the app.
-6. **Refresh + revocation** โ access tokens expire after 30 seconds and refresh tokens after 5 minutes by default, so all three states are easy to observe: direct success (<30s), silent refresh (30sโ5min), and full re-auth (>5min). Connections can request different lifetimes via the `/ttl//mcp` endpoint path (see [Per-connection token lifetimes](#per-connection-token-lifetimes)), and `revoke_auth_token` invalidates the whole session immediately.
-
-The two `elicit_*` tools demonstrate the complementary pattern of [URL elicitation](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/draft/client/elicitation), where the server asks the user to open a URL (e.g. to complete sign-in) either by blocking inside the tool call (`elicit_url`) or by failing with the `-32042` error and succeeding on retry (`elicit_by_error`).
-
-## Architecture
-
-- **Stateless auth codes** โ grant details are encoded _inside_ the authorization code as a 5-minute JWT, so nothing needs to be stored between requests.
-- **Short-lived tokens** โ access tokens default to a **30 second** TTL and refresh tokens to **5 minutes**: first `get_secret` succeeds โ wait >30s โ next call 401s โ host refreshes โ retry succeeds โ wait >5min โ full re-auth. Per-connection overrides via the `/ttl//mcp` endpoint path.
-- **HS256** โ a single shared secret; no key-pair persistence.
-- **Per-request MCP server** โ each `/mcp` request gets a fresh `McpServer` + `StreamableHTTPServerTransport` (stateless, no session IDs).
-- **Session revocation** โ all tokens from one OAuth session share a `sid` claim; `revoke_auth_token` adds the sid to an in-memory revocation list checked by both token verification and the refresh grant.
