fix(examples): resolve DIST_DIR path for npm package execution (#277)
* fix(examples): resolve DIST_DIR path for npm package execution

When servers are compiled to dist/server.js and published to npm,
`import.meta.dirname` already points to dist/, so joining with "dist"
results in dist/dist/ which doesn't exist.

This fix detects whether we're running from TypeScript source or
compiled JavaScript and adjusts the path accordingly:
- From source (server.ts): use dist/ subdirectory
- From compiled (dist/server.js): use current directory

Fixes ENOENT errors like:
"ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '.../dist/dist/mcp-app.html'"

* fix(pdf-server): mark pdfjs-dist as external in bundle

The pdf.worker.mjs file wasn't being found when running from npm
because bun bundled pdfjs-dist but didn't include the worker file.

By marking pdfjs-dist as external, it uses the installed package
from node_modules at runtime where the worker is available.

Getting Started

npm install
npm run dev

How It Works

  1. The server registers a get-time tool with metadata linking it to a UI HTML resource (ui://get-time/mcp-app.html).
  2. When the tool is invoked, the Host renders the UI from the resource.
  3. The UI uses the MCP App SDK API to communicate with the host and call server tools.

Build System

This example bundles into a single HTML file using Vite with vite-plugin-singlefile — see vite.config.ts. This allows all UI content to be served as a single MCP resource. Alternatively, MCP apps can load external resources by defining _meta.ui.csp.resourceDomains in the UI resource metadata.
