chore: stable spec release 2026-01-26 and SDK v1.0.0 (#362)
* chore: add stable spec release 2026-01-26

- Use git mv to copy specification from draft to specification/2026-01-26/apps.mdx (preserves history)
- Update status from 'Draft' to 'Stable (2026-01-26)'
- Add specification version table to README
- Update Resources section with links to both stable and draft specs

* chore: bump version to 1.0.0

- Update main package version from 0.4.2 to 1.0.0
- Update all example package versions to 1.0.0
- Regenerate package-lock.json

* prettier

* chore: align protocol version with spec release 2026-01-26

- Add 'Protocol Version: 2026-01-26' to spec header
- Update LATEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION from '2025-11-21' to '2026-01-26'
- Update spec examples to use '2026-01-26' protocol version
- Add '2025-11-21' to SUPPORTED_PROTOCOL_VERSIONS for backwards compatibility

* chore: update spec references to stable 2026-01-26

- Update typedoc.config.mjs navigation link
- Update docs/overview.md spec links (10 occurrences)
- Update plugins/mcp-apps/skills/create-mcp-app/SKILL.md spec link
- Update src/spec.types.ts @see links
- Update AGENTS.md spec path
- Regenerate src/generated/schema.ts with updated links

* chore: simplify versioning - first stable release

- Remove backwards compatibility version (2025-11-21) - this is the first stable release
- Remove redundant 'Protocol Version' header - spec version IS the protocol version

* chore: add history reference comment to stable spec

# Example: Wiki Explorer
Visualizes Wikipedia link graphs using a force-directed layout. Explore how Wikipedia pages are connected by expanding nodes to reveal first-degree links.

## MCP Client Configuration
Add to your MCP client configuration (stdio transport):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"wiki-explorer": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"--silent",
"--registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/",
"@modelcontextprotocol/server-wiki-explorer",
"--stdio"
]
}
}
}
```
### Local Development
To test local modifications, use this configuration (replace `~/code/ext-apps` with your clone path):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"wiki-explorer": {
"command": "bash",
"args": [
"-c",
"cd ~/code/ext-apps/examples/wiki-explorer-server && npm run build >&2 && node dist/index.js --stdio"
]
}
}
}
```
## Features
- **Force-directed graph visualization**: Interactive graph powered by [`force-graph`](https://github.com/vasturiano/force-graph)
- **Node expansion**: Click any node to expand and see all pages it links to
- **Visual state tracking**: Nodes change color based on state (blue = default, green = expanded, red = error)
- **Direct page access**: Open any Wikipedia page in your browser
## Running
1. Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```
2. Build and start the server:
```bash
npm run start:http # for Streamable HTTP transport
# OR
npm run start:stdio # for stdio transport
```
3. View using the [`basic-host`](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps/tree/main/examples/basic-host) example or another MCP Apps-compatible host.
### Tool Input
To test the example, call the `get-first-degree-links` tool with a Wikipedia URL:
```json
{
"url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_theory"
}
```
Click nodes in the graph to **Open** (view in browser) or **Expand** (visualize linked pages).
## Architecture
### Server (`server.ts`)
MCP server that fetches Wikipedia pages and extracts internal links.
Exposes one tool:
- `get-first-degree-links` - Returns links to other Wikipedia pages from a given page
### App (`src/mcp-app.ts`)
Vanilla TypeScript app using force-graph for visualization that:
- Receives tool inputs via the MCP App SDK
- Renders an interactive force-directed graph
- Supports node expansion to explore link relationships
