When running the inspector with command-line arguments (e.g.,
`npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node build/index.js arg1 arg2`),
the command and arguments were not being properly passed through to
the UI for pre-filling.
Changes:
- cli.ts now passes command and args to start.js
- start.js uses --command for the command and --args for arguments
- Server parses the new --command parameter
- /config endpoint returns correct values for UI pre-filling
This ensures the UI correctly displays the command and arguments
passed on the command line instead of showing old localStorage values.

Replace explicit property assignments with shorthand syntax when
property names match variable names (e.g., SERVER_PORT: SERVER_PORT
becomes just SERVER_PORT).
Simplifies the startup flow by consolidating browser opening
in the client script rather than the start script for prod.
We were duplicating a lot of logging, making it easy for
logs to go out of sync - this is a proposal to consolidate:
- server only logs info about itself
- client only logs info about itself
To reduce the number of places we print connection information
to the user.
Refactored startProdClient to match startDevClient's logging pattern,
ensuring consistent user feedback whether auto-open is enabled or disabled.
Also ensures that we log full information on how to open the browser
regardless of whether MCP_AUTO_OPEN_ENABLED=false.
Address PR feedback by restructuring getClientUrl to always include
MCP_PROXY_PORT parameter when using non-default port, regardless of
auth status. Also improved code clarity by using params.size check.
- Update client to read MCP_PROXY_PORT from URL parameters
- Update server to include port in displayed URL when non-default
- Update start scripts to pass SERVER_PORT to client
- Use DEFAULT_MCP_PROXY_LISTEN_PORT constant instead of magic numbers
This fixes the issue where the client couldn't connect to the proxy
when SERVER_PORT was set to a non-default value.
