chore: bump to 1.0.1 - fix npm reference for ext-apps dependency in examples + update zod to 4.x (#368)
* fix(examples): use npm reference for ext-apps dependency

Replace local path '../..' with '^1.0.0' npm reference in all example
packages. The local path was accidentally published to npm, causing
npm install to hang when installing server-* packages.

Bump versions to 1.0.1 for all public packages to fix the published
versions.

Fixes npm install hanging issue in dependent projects like
example-remote-server.

Note: npm workspaces automatically resolves the dependency to the
local package during development, so no overrides are needed.

* fix: update zod to 4.x in transcript-server and fix update-lock:docker script

- Update transcript-server to use zod ^4.1.13 for compatibility
- Fix update-lock:docker script to properly clean workspace node_modules
- Regenerate package-lock.json with clean npmjs.org URLs

Video Resource Server

Screenshot

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

MCP Client Configuration

Add to your MCP client configuration (stdio transport):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "video-resource": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "--silent",
        "--registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-video-resource",
        "--stdio"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Local Development

To test local modifications, use this configuration (replace ~/code/ext-apps with your clone path):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "video-resource": {
      "command": "bash",
      "args": [
        "-c",
        "cd ~/code/ext-apps/examples/video-resource-server && npm run build >&2 && node dist/index.js --stdio"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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 view fetches the resource via resources/read
  3. The server fetches the video from CDN and returns it as a base64 blob
  4. The view decodes the blob and plays it in a <video> element
