fix: add error handling for server startup failures (#236)
Previously, if app.listen() failed (e.g., port already in use), the
server would fail silently. This adds proper error handling to log
the error and exit with a non-zero status code.

Video Resource Server

Demonstrates serving binary content (video) via MCP resources using the base64 blob pattern.

Quick Start

npm install
npm run dev

Tools

  • play_video - Plays a video loaded via MCP resource
    • videoId: Choose from various sizes (bunny-1mb, bunny-5mb, bunny-10mb, etc.)

How It Works

  1. The play_video tool returns a videoUri pointing to an MCP resource
  2. The widget fetches the resource via resources/read
  3. The server fetches the video from CDN and returns it as a base64 blob
  4. The widget decodes the blob and plays it in a <video> element
