Copilot review round 4.
- Add `SCHEMA_UNPORTABLE` to `codeForExit`. `CliExitCodeError` lets a
caller omit the envelope, so without the case an envelope-less throw
reported the generic `error` — the same silent mislabelling the rename
was meant to prevent, one layer down. Covered via the envelope-less
construction that exposed it.
- Keep a local `type` (and the preset's `required`) alongside the remote
`$ref` in the showcase config. The TUI's `schemaToForm` dispatches on
`type`, so a `$ref`-only property fell through to a string field that
`add`'s numeric handler then rejected — making the README's "every
showcase tool is runnable" claim false there. The `remote-ref` finding
is unaffected, since that rule reads `$ref` independently.
- Restrict `type-union` to well-formed unions: non-empty, unique, and
all recognized JSON Schema type names. Its message asserts the
construct is *legal* JSON Schema, which is false for `[]`, `[3]` or
`["bananas"]`, and the `anyOf` it suggested for those would be invalid
too. Malformed schemas stay the SDK parser's business.
- Drop `if`/`then`/`else` from the presence-only allowlist. They only
constrain as a pair, so `{"if": {"const": 1}}` accepts every value and
was evading `untyped-schema`; the pairing is now checked explicitly.
- Distinguish the web sidebar severities by SHAPE, not just colour — a
circle for an error, a triangle for a warning — and name the severity
in the tooltip. Colour alone left a colour-blind reader unable to tell
them apart.
- Fix the stale "across 2 tools" count in the CLI README's hint sample.

- Scope `non-object-root` to `inputSchema`. The pinned SDK types
`inputSchema` with `type: literal("object")` but `outputSchema` as a
bare `looseObject`, so a `{"type":"string"}` output is conforming; the
rule was claiming a requirement MCP does not make, at error severity.
- Decide `untyped-schema` from an allowlist of constraining keywords
rather than a denylist of annotations. JSON Schema ignores keywords it
does not recognize, so `{"vendorHint": true}` accepts every value and a
denylist passed it as constrained. `$defs`-only schemas now flag too.
- Walk `dependentSchemas` and draft-07 `dependencies`, with a test
pinning that the property-name-array form is not a schema position.
- Suggest `anyOf` branches for an array-form `type`, never "drop it from
`required`" — accepting `null` and permitting absence are independent
contracts, so the old suggestion silently changed the schema's meaning.
- Reject `--strict` alongside `--app-info`. That path returns NDJSON from
`runMethod` and never reaches the lint, so the flag was a no-op gate
that could never fail.
- Colour the web sidebar flag from the `--inspector-*` severity tokens,
matching the detail panel and avoiding the default yellow that failed
the a11y check.
- Add a live integration test for `rawToolSchemas`. It caught that an
`outputSchema` override on a preset returning no structured content
makes every call to that tool fail client-side validation — the
showcase config did exactly that, so the flagged tool could not be
run. Moved the bare `true` onto `get_temp`, documented the caveat, and
pinned both halves.
- Drop the double cast from the lint test fixture.

Closes#1005
A tool schema can be perfectly legal JSON Schema and still be rejected by
the client the server is meant to run against — Go's `jsonschema` emits a
bare `true` for `interface{}`, which the SDK accepts and Claude Code
refuses with an opaque "Invalid input". The Inspector passed it through
silently.
Adds `core/json/schemaLint.ts`, a portability lint over a tool's
inputSchema/outputSchema, and surfaces one shared verdict everywhere:
the CLI's `--strict` report (exit 6 on an error-severity finding), the
TUI's tool list marker + detail pane, and the web Tools sidebar flag +
detail section.
Deliberately not a JSON Schema validator: a census of 617 public servers
found zero that fail the SDK's own parse, so a conformance check would
report nothing on real servers. Each rule is instead a construct that is
legal JSON Schema and known to be refused or mishandled by a shipping
client — a bare boolean in a schema position, an array-form `type`, a
remote `$ref`, a schema with no validation keyword, a non-object root.
`test-servers/configs/unportable-schemas-http.json` exercises every rule,
via a new `rawToolSchemas` override — the Zod-built presets cannot emit
any of these shapes, which is the same reason a real server only hits
this when its schemas come from another generator.
