feat: publish example servers to npm (#184)
* feat: publish example servers to npm

Make example MCP App servers publishable to npm under the
@modelcontextprotocol scope:

- server-basic-react
- server-basic-vanillajs
- server-budget-allocator
- server-cohort-heatmap
- server-customer-segmentation
- server-scenario-modeler
- server-system-monitor
- server-threejs
- server-wiki-explorer

Changes:
- Remove `private: true` from example package.json files
- Add proper npm metadata (description, repository, license, files)
- Update ext-apps dependency from relative to ^0.2.2
- Copy server-utils.ts into each package for standalone use
- Add publish-examples job to npm-publish.yml workflow

The examples will be published automatically when a GitHub release
is created, after the main SDK package is published.

Source: archive.org/details/NASA-Ultra-High-Definition (public domain)

* fix: add default videoId for video-resource-server

* fix: use existing bunny-1mb as default video, remove nasa-earth

* refactor: update new framework examples to publishing pattern

Add publishing metadata for:
- @modelcontextprotocol/server-basic-preact
- @modelcontextprotocol/server-basic-solid
- @modelcontextprotocol/server-basic-svelte
- @modelcontextprotocol/server-basic-vue

Changes:

- Add npm publishing metadata
- Update ext-apps dep to versioned ^0.2.2
- Add stdio mode support in main()

* fix: add missing @rollup/rollup-win32-arm64-msvc to optionalDependencies

This fixes the Windows ARM64 CI build failure caused by npm's optional
dependency bug. The package.json was missing this platform-specific
rollup binding.

Example: System Monitor App

A demo MCP App that displays real-time OS metrics with a stacked area chart for per-core CPU usage and a bar gauge for memory.

Initial state CPU data accumulated Extended CPU history

Features

  • Per-Core CPU Monitoring: Stacked area chart showing individual CPU core utilization over a 1-minute sliding window
  • Memory Usage: Horizontal bar gauge with color-coded thresholds (green/yellow/red)
  • System Info: Hostname, platform, and uptime display
  • Auto-Polling: Automatically starts monitoring on load with 2-second refresh interval
  • Theme Support: Adapts to light/dark mode preferences

Running

  1. Install dependencies:

    npm install
    
  2. Build and start the server:

    npm run start:http  # for Streamable HTTP transport
    # OR
    npm run start:stdio  # for stdio transport
    
  3. View using the basic-host example or another MCP Apps-compatible host.

Architecture

Server (server.ts)

Exposes a single get-system-stats tool that returns:

  • Raw per-core CPU timing data (idle/total counters)
  • Memory usage (used/total/percentage)
  • System info (hostname, platform, uptime)

The tool is linked to a UI resource via _meta.ui.resourceUri.

App (src/mcp-app.ts)

  • Uses Chart.js for the stacked area chart visualization
  • Polls the server tool every 2 seconds
  • Computes CPU usage percentages client-side from timing deltas
  • Maintains a 30-point history (1 minute at 2s intervals)
  • Updates all UI elements on each poll
