Wires the ported Tasks screen + core task subsystem through App.tsx: sticky Clear Completed, cancel/refresh error toasts, core-side per-task progress correlation, Run-as-task on the Tools screen (gated on server support), per-server Task TTL, and live task-status toasts.
* feat(servers): persist server list to ~/.mcp-inspector/mcp.json (#1343)
Replaces the hardcoded SEED_SERVERS in App.tsx with a file-backed list at
~/.mcp-inspector/mcp.json. Full CRUD round-trips through new /api/servers
routes; first launch writes the two existing seeds if the file is absent.
Backend (core):
- store-io: getDefaultMcpConfigPath() — sibling of getDefaultStorageDir()
- core/mcp/serverList.ts: pure converters MCPConfig <-> ServerEntry[],
DEFAULT_SEED_CONFIG, and normalizeServerType (moved from node/config.ts
to keep serverList.ts Node-free)
- core/mcp/remote/node/server.ts: GET/POST/PUT/:id/DELETE/:id /api/servers
routes, plus RemoteServerOptions.mcpConfigPath defaulting to
getDefaultMcpConfigPath(). Ids validated with validateStoreId.
Frontend:
- core/react/useServers.ts: { servers, loading, error, refresh, addServer,
updateServer, removeServer } over the new endpoints
- App.tsx: drops SEED_SERVERS, wires useServers, disconnects on remove of
the active server, follows id on rename of the active server
- ServerConfigModal: Add/Edit/Clone form (stdio: command/args/env/cwd;
sse/streamable-http: url/headers as one-per-line text)
- ServerRemoveConfirmModal: confirm-on-remove with id + transport summary
Tests (52 new):
- unit: getDefaultMcpConfigPath env-var permutations, serverList round-trip,
hook flows against real Hono app.fetch (no TCP), modal forms + validation
- integration: /api/servers routes against a real createRemoteApp + tmp file
- stories with play functions for both new modals

* fix(servers): address PR #1349 review (correctness + nits)
Bugs:
- normalizeServerType: validate against the allowed set and default
unknown / non-string types to "stdio" (matches the missing-type case).
Prevents a hand-edited {"type":"websocket"} from leaking past `as
ServerType` and surprising downstream narrowing.
- onConfirmRemove: when removing the active server, also destroy() the 9
state managers and null them + the client out so they GC immediately
instead of waiting for the next server switch.
- /api/servers mutating routes: serialize POST/PUT/DELETE through an
in-process write-lock so concurrent read-modify-write cycles can't lose
updates. New integration test fires 25 parallel POSTs and asserts every
entry lands.
- readMcpConfig comment: update to match actual behavior (valid-JSON file
with no `mcpServers` → empty; invalid JSON → 500 from the outer try, so
corruption surfaces rather than silently emptying the list). New
integration tests pin the 500 path on both GET and POST.
Nits:
- Add --inspector-surface-subtle token, use it in ServerRemoveConfirmModal
instead of the raw Mantine var.
- Rename useServers buildHeaders boolean param to includeJsonBody.
- Add a comment on the env-value vs header-value trim asymmetry (env
values preserve trailing whitespace; header values follow RFC 7230).
Tests: 1630 unit + 404 integration + 306 storybook all green.

* fix(ServerConfigModal): null currentTarget in functional setState updater
React nulls SyntheticEvent.currentTarget after the synchronous handler
returns. Reading e.currentTarget.value inside `setForm((f) => ...)`
worked under happy-dom (which keeps currentTarget around) but threw
"Cannot read properties of null (reading 'value')" on the first
keystroke in a real browser. Capture the value before the functional
updater closes over it.
All seven onChange handlers in ServerConfigModal had the bug. Extended
the AddEmpty storybook play to type into Server ID and Command — the
real-Chromium runner now exercises this path so a future regression
fails the test suite instead of the user.

* fix(remote-server): surface stderr + transport_error when subprocess crashes during startup
A stdio subprocess that spawns successfully but exits before the browser
opens the SSE events stream used to vanish into a bare "Session not
found" 404. The fix has three parts:
1. RemoteSession.markTransportDead always pushes the transport_error
event (via pushEvent's queue) rather than dropping it when no
consumer is attached. The queued event drains when the consumer
eventually arrives.
2. /api/mcp/connect's transport.onclose handler no longer deletes the
session immediately when no consumer is attached. Instead it holds
the session (with queued stderr + transport_error) for a 30s grace
window so the events endpoint can drain it. A timeout sweeps if no
consumer ever connects.
3. /api/mcp/events detects isTransportDead after attaching the consumer
(which just drained the queue), yields once to flush, then closes
the stream and deletes the session.
End result: the user sees the actual error (e.g. "Cannot find module"
from stderr + the transport-closed reason) instead of a confusing 404.
Tests:
- New unit tests (clients/web/src/test/integration/mcp/remote/remote-session.test.ts)
cover the queueing behavior, live delivery, and clearEventConsumer
signaling under all transport-state permutations.
- New integration test (connect-crash.test.ts) spawns a node subprocess
that writes to stderr and exits, then verifies the events stream
delivers both the stderr line and the transport_error event before
closing — the exact scenario from PR #1349.

* fix(state): gate listRequestorTasks on the server's `tasks` capability
ManagedRequestorTasksState was calling tasks/list on every connect.
Servers that don't advertise the `tasks` capability (the common case)
reply with -32601 "Method not found", which then surfaces in the
inspector's console for every connect.
Skip the call when the server doesn't declare `tasks` — empty tasks
list is the right semantics. Existing tests opt into capabilities so
the live-path coverage is preserved; two new tests pin the gated
behavior (direct refresh + connect-event-triggered refresh).

* fix(App): clear activeServerId on disconnect so other server cards re-enable
ServerCard dims any card whose id differs from `activeServer` (and marks
it inert), so cards stay non-interactive after a disconnect until the
user reconnects elsewhere. activeServerId was set on connect but never
reset on disconnect, leaving the whole screen locked to the just-
disconnected card.
Subscribe to InspectorClient's `disconnect` event and clear
activeServerId there. Covers all three disconnect paths uniformly:
- user toggles the connected card off
- user clicks the header Disconnect button
- mid-session transport failure (subprocess exit / network drop)
Event-based instead of effect-based on connectionStatus to avoid the
first-render-clobbers-new-id trap (status starts as "disconnected" for
a freshly-created client before connect() runs).

* feat(core): port v1.5 hook layer (useInspectorClient + useManaged*/usePaged* + log hooks)
Wholesale port of v1.5's React hook layer and the EventTarget-based state machinery the hooks subscribe to (#1243). Hooks decouple from the concrete InspectorClient via a new `InspectorClientProtocol` interface so this layer can land before the runtime class is ported.
Added under `core/`:
- `core/react/` — useInspectorClient + 5 useManaged* + 5 usePaged* + 3 log hooks
- `core/mcp/state/` — 5 managed*State + 5 paged*State + messageLogState + stderrLogState + fetchRequestLogState
- `core/mcp/inspectorClientProtocol.ts`, `inspectorClientEventTarget.ts`, `typedEventTarget.ts`, `samplingCreateMessage.ts`, `sessionStorage.ts`
- v2-only wrapper types in `core/mcp/types.ts`: InspectorUrlElicitRequest, InspectorPendingRequest, InspectorRequestHistoryItem
Tests live under `clients/web/src/test/core/` (28 new test files, 264 new tests). Test fake: `core/mcp/__tests__/fakeInspectorClient.ts`.
Build wiring:
- `vite.config.ts`: dedupe react/react-dom so core/ files resolve them via clients/web/node_modules.
- `tsconfig.app.json` / `tsconfig.test.json`: paths map react/react-dom/vitest to clients/web/node_modules so `tsc -b` resolves bare imports from core/ source files (which sit above the package's node_modules). Exclude core/__tests__ from app config; include in test config.

* review: address PR #1300 review findings
Bugs:
- fetchRequestLogState: add .catch() on sessionStorage.loadSession so a corrupt
or unreadable session doesn't surface as an unhandled rejection (matches the
saveSession swallow pattern).
- messageLogState: sync pendingRequestEntries when clearMessages() evicts a
pending request entry, so a later response with the same id falls through
to the append branch instead of mutating an unreachable map entry. Add tests
for both predicate and no-predicate paths.
Cleanups:
- Extract mergeTaskIntoList helper to core/mcp/state/mergeTaskIntoList.ts so
managed/paged RequestorTasks state classes share one definition.
- Add a one-line JSDoc note on each PagedTools/Prompts/Resources/Templates
state explaining why they deliberately do not subscribe to *ListChanged
(cursor invalidation mid-pagination).
- Document on useInspectorClient that appRendererClient is read lazily on
every render and is not subscribed (changes once at connect time).
Carry-overs from v1.5 deliberately left for the follow-up InspectorClient
runtime port:
- Refresh/status-change race in Managed*State.refresh() (status check is only
at entry; a disconnect during await can re-clear before refresh resumes).
- nextCursor exposure asymmetry across usePaged* (only usePagedRequestorTasks
surfaces it via state field; others return it from loadPage() only).
