The web client and the TUI both read `savedSettings.metadata` and pass it
as `InspectorClientOptions.defaultMetadata`. The CLI never did, and
`InspectorClient` only reads the option rather than falling back to
`serverSettings.metadata` — so a per-server `metadata` entry was silently
inert for `--cli` runs.
Pass it beside the existing `roots:`, guarded on a non-empty map the same
way web and the TUI guard theirs, so `{}` still means "no defaults".
Precedence is unchanged: call-time keys override defaults in `mergeMeta`,
so `--metadata` stays per-invocation and wins on a key collision.
Covered by three catalog-driven tests asserting against the test server's
recorded wire requests. `createTestConfig` is retyped `StoredMCPServer` —
the accurate on-disk shape — since a fixture that cannot express the
per-server keys cannot cover the settings that reach the client.

Two credential leaks, the same class already fixed for the client logger:
`serverList` printed the malformed entry verbatim — a legacy row missing `key`
still holds whatever the user configured — and the CLI overflow error echoed
the whole `key=value` pair into stderr and CI logs. Both now name the key and
the offending *type*; a test plants a `sk-live-…` and asserts it appears
nowhere while the key still does.
`normalizeStoredMetadata` now also drops a value that parses but cannot be
sent. A hand-edited catalog is the reachable source: it is parsed server-side,
so `1e400` really does become `Infinity` there, and the next write would store
`null`. Filtered per key, matching the per-item salvage this file already does
elsewhere, so one bad value does not cost the user the rest.
Deliberately *not* added to the `/api/servers` guard, which review also
suggested. Writing that test is what showed why: a client's own
`JSON.stringify` turns `Infinity` into `null` before the request is sent, so
the wire cannot carry the bad case at all — and the check made things worse,
rejecting the whole metadata field where the normalizer drops one key. The
guard stays a container check, with a comment recording both points.

`StrictJsonValue` removed `undefined`, but the type cannot express the rest of
the gap: TypeScript has one `number`, and JSON has no encoding for `NaN` or
`±Infinity`, so `JSON.stringify` rewrites them to `null`.
This is reachable from ordinary input, not a careless caller.
`JSON.parse('{"a":1e400}')` returns `Infinity` on overflow — so text a user
types parses cleanly, satisfies the type, and reaches the server as `null`
while the editor still shows `1e400`.
`isSerializableJson` in `core/json` is the runtime half of `StrictJsonValue`,
applied at both boundaries that turn text into metadata:
- the editor's draft parser, which now reports "Numbers must be finite" inline
and withholds the value rather than emitting one it cannot send;
- the CLI's `--metadata` / `--tool-metadata` parser, which throws. Silently
sending `null` would be wrong, and so would falling back to the literal
string — neither is what was asked for.
Tests cover the validator directly (including that `JSON.stringify` really does
write `null`, which is the reason it matters), the editor parser, and the CLI
flag.

Closes#1910
`_meta` was typed `Record<string, string>` end to end in the Inspector —
on disk as a `{ key, value }[]` pair array, in the Server Settings form as
key/value rows, and in every request verb's per-call metadata parameter.
Nothing in the MCP spec restricts a `_meta` value to a string, and the SDK
models the field as a `z.looseObject`, so the restriction was ours alone.
Widen the whole path to `RequestMetadata` (`Record<string, JsonValue>`):
- Per-server default metadata is a JSON **object** on disk and in memory.
The pre-#1910 pair array is still read (`normalizeStoredMetadata`) so an
existing `mcp.json` keeps working; it is never written back, so a save
migrates the entry.
- The Server Settings → Request Metadata section is a JSON editor
(`JsonObjectInput`) instead of key/value rows — rows cannot express an
object value. It keeps the typed text as the display source and emits
only parsed JSON, the same draft split `SchemaJsonField` uses, so the box
stays typeable; invalid text is flagged inline and not applied.
- The CLI stops flattening `--metadata` / `--tool-metadata` through
`metaValueToString`. Those values were already JSON-parsed, so
`trace={"id":"abc"}` used to reach the wire as the *string* `{"id":"abc"}`
and now reaches it as an object.
- `servers/show` redaction replaces a sensitive key's whole value rather
than a string, so a structured value cannot leak through its members.
- `progressTokenOf` narrows the reserved `progressToken` key back to
`string | number` before it reaches the SDK; any other JSON still travels
inside `_meta` but wires up no progress callback.

* feat(cli): catalog listing, auth flags, and OAuth browser UX
Add servers/list and servers/show, --relogin / --stored-auth-only, browser
OAuth navigation with OSC 8 links, and extract method handlers under
clients/cli/src/handlers. Tracks #1781.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
* fix(cli): address #1782 review — relogin clear, stored-auth-only, docs
Clear both raw and normalized OAuth keys on --relogin; check the shared
store before bailing under --stored-auth-only mid-session; restore the
tests README link target; document servers/show redaction limits; keep
mcpi groundwork with TODO(#1432) markers.

* fix(cli): gate OAuth browser open and harden #1782 review follow-ups
Arm auto-open only for CLI-owned interactive OAuth, honor MCP_AUTO_OPEN_ENABLED,
move --relogin clear after validation, skip keychain on servers/list, and cover
secret redaction after rehydrate.

document the 5s bound and post-confirm callback wait; pin the TTY no-timeout arm.

* fix(cli): tighten step-up timeout messaging and TTY test (round-11)
Make the TTY no-timeout assertion use a settled flag (the Promise.race
check was vacuous), say "timed out" instead of "declined" on the pipe
bound, and document that piped answers need a newline or stdin close.

Ports the CLI, TUI, and launcher from v1.5 into v2 behind a single
`mcp-inspector` entrypoint (launcher → web/cli/tui). Includes the
`mcp-inspector --web --dev` launcher fix (Vite alias resolution + prod-server
double-start), the root `postinstall` install cascade with simplified CI, and
spec/AGENTS docs (no-workspaces rationale, Development setup).
Closes#1246.
