## Summary
- Updated the URL regex pattern in `StreamableHttpTransport` and
`SseTransport` to allow template variables like `{baseUrl}` as an
alternative to requiring the `https://` prefix
- This enables more flexible URL configuration in the `remotes` section
of server.json
## Changes
- Modified the `url` field pattern from `^https?://[^\s]+$` to
`^(https?://[^\s]+|\{[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\}[^\s]*)$`
- Updated both `openapi.yaml` and the derived `server.schema.json`
- Added clarifying documentation that URL must start with `http://`,
`https://`, or a template variable
## Regex breakdown
```
^(https?://[^\s]+|\{[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\}[^\s]*)$
```
| Part | Meaning |
|------|---------|
| `^` | Start of string |
| `(` | Begin alternation group |
| `https?://[^\s]+` | `http://` or `https://` followed by non-whitespace
|
| `\|` | OR |
| `\{[a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\}` | Template variable: `{` + valid
identifier + `}` |
| `[^\s]*` | Optional path/query after template variable |
| `)` | End alternation group |
| `$` | End of string |
## Test cases
**Should match ✓**
- `https://api.example.com/mcp`
- `http://localhost:8080/sse`
- `https://example.com/path?query=value`
- `{baseUrl}`
- `{baseUrl}/mcp`
- `{server_url}/api/v1`
- `{API_ENDPOINT}`
**Should NOT match ✗**
- `ftp://example.com` — wrong protocol
- `example.com` — missing protocol or variable
- `/relative/path` — relative paths not allowed
- `{invalid-name}/path` — hyphens not valid in variable names
- `{123invalid}` — variables can't start with numbers

<!-- Provide a brief summary of your changes -->
## Motivation and Context
<!-- Why is this change needed? What problem does it solve? -->
The following PR adds a PUT method for updating a server version
(optional, not implemented by the registry but still provides the
ability for other registry implementations to standardise on it)
**Details:**
- Path: PUT /v0.1/servers/{serverName}/versions/{version}
- Purpose: Update a specific version of an MCP server in the registry
- Authentication: Uses bearer token authentication (registry-specific)
- Request Body: Accepts a ServerDetail schema
- Response: Returns a ServerResponse on success (200)
- Error Handling: Includes proper HTTP status codes:
- 401: Unauthorized
- 403: Forbidden - Insufficient permissions
- 404: Server or version not found
- 500: Internal server error
- 501: Not Implemented - Registry doesn't support updates

all changes; ready for final review.
## Summary
This PR adds LocalTransport and RemoteTransport separation with URL
template variable support for remote servers, enabling e.g. multi-tenant
deployments with configurable endpoints.
**Key additions:**
- LocalTransport (for Packages) and RemoteTransport (for Remotes)
- URL template variables for remote transports (e.g., `{tenant_id}` in
URLs)
- Pattern validation ensuring URLs are URL-like while allowing templates
- Full test coverage via Go validator tests and documentation examples
## ⚠️ server.json Update
This PR updates the `server.json` schema. A new schema version will be
cut after this lands.
## Problem
The current schema describes URL templating with `{curly_braces}` for
transports but provides no mechanism for Remote contexts to define what
those variables should resolve to, making the feature unusable for
remote servers.
Referenced issue: #394
- Users need multi-tenant remote servers with different endpoints per
deployment
- Each tenant/region has its own URL (e.g., `us-cell1.example.com`,
`emea-cell1.example.com`)
- Current schema doesn't support parameterized remote URLs
## Solution
### Schema Architecture
**LocalTransport** (for Package context):
```typescript
LocalTransport = StdioTransport | StreamableHttpTransport | SseTransport
```
- Used in Package context (non-breaking rename of existing behavior)
- Variables in `{curly_braces}` reference parent Package
arguments/environment variables
- Supports all three transport types including stdio
**RemoteTransport** (for Remote context):
```typescript
RemoteTransport = (StreamableHttpTransport | SseTransport) + { variables: object }
```
- Extends StreamableHttp/Sse via `allOf` composition - no duplication!
- Adds `variables` object for URL templating
- Only supports streamable-http and sse (stdio not valid for remotes)
### Key Changes
**1. Schema Updates** (`openapi.yaml`, `server.schema.json`):
- Added `LocalTransport` union type for Package context
- Added `RemoteTransport` with `allOf` composition extending base
transports
- Updated Package to reference `LocalTransport`
- Updated remotes to reference `RemoteTransport`
- Added URL pattern validation: `^https?://[^\\s]+$` to both
StreamableHttp and SSE
- Removed `format: uri` from SSE (was blocking template variables)
**2. Go Types** (`pkg/model/types.go`):
- Base `Transport` struct unchanged for Package context
- `RemoteTransport` struct for remotes with `Variables` field
- Both work with existing validation infrastructure
**3. Validators** (`internal/validators/`):
- `validateRemoteTransport()` validates Remote-specific constraints
- `collectRemoteTransportVariables()` extracts available variables
- `IsValidTemplatedURL()` validates template variables reference defined
variables
- `IsValidRemoteURL()` handles template variable substitution before
localhost check
- 6 new test cases for remote transport variable validation
**4. Documentation Examples** (`generic-server-json.md`):
- Remote Server with URL Templating (StreamableHttp with `{tenant_id}`)
- SSE Remote with URL Templating (SSE with `{tenant_id}`)
- Local Server with URL Templating (Package with `{port}`)
- All examples validate via existing `validate-examples` tool
## Example: Remote Transport with Variables
```json
{
"remotes": [
{
"type": "streamable-http",
"url": "https://api.example.com/mcp/{tenant_id}/{region}",
"variables": {
"tenant_id": {
"description": "Tenant identifier",
"isRequired": true,
"choices": ["us-cell1", "emea-cell1", "apac-cell1"]
},
"region": {
"description": "Deployment region",
"isRequired": true
}
}
}
]
}
```
Clients configure the variables, and `{tenant_id}` and `{region}` get
replaced to connect to tenant-specific endpoints like
`https://api.example.com/mcp/us-cell1/east`.
## Architecture Details
**Context-based variable resolution:**
- **Package + LocalTransport**: `{port}` references `--port` argument or
`PORT` env var from parent Package
- **Remote + RemoteTransport**: `{tenant_id}` references
`variables.tenant_id` defined in the transport itself
- **Code reuse**: StreamableHttp/Sse definitions shared via `allOf`, not
duplicated
- **Validation**: Template variables validated against available
variables for each context

## Follow-on Work
Follow-on work will be done to adopt the feedback in
https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/pull/570#issuecomment-3367417636
regarding variable naming/prioritzation/scoping conventions, but should
not have any impact on the shape being introduced here (just
validations).

## Summary
- Update all API endpoint paths from `/v0/` to `/v0.1/` in the OpenAPI
spec
- Bump OpenAPI spec version from `2025-10-17` to `2025-12-01` (in `$id`
and `info.version`)
## Rationale
This ensures sub-registries implementing the spec are adhering to the
stable v0.1 version rather than the unstable v0. The API freeze (v0.1)
provides stability guarantees that sub-registries need.
## Additional cleanup
### Make `_meta` optional in `ServerResponse`
The `_meta` field (and its `io.modelcontextprotocol.registry/official`
extension) were never intended to be required parts of the spec.
Sub-registries may not use these registry-specific metadata fields, so
they should be optional.
### Move extensions docs to use /v0.1/ instead of /v0/

<!-- Provide a brief summary of your changes -->
## Motivation and Context
<!-- Why is this change needed? What problem does it solve? -->
This resolves
https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/issues/738. There are
two issues with the NuGet.org integration today:
1. Change the `registryBaseUrl` for NuGet to
`https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json`. `https://api.nuget.org` is not
the entry point for our service and is not specific enough.
`https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json` is the value that users put into
their tooling to connect to our public registry (it is installed by
default in .NET client tooling).
2. Use the service index API to get the URL pattern for package READMEs.
- This URL is not guaranteed to be stable. The service index URL
(`registryBaseUrl`) is, however.
Additionally, I polished up the error messages so various error modes
are clearer. When packages are published to NuGet.org, they take 2-5
minutes to become available due to validations we run.
Some possible states that are now handled and described more helpfully
are:
- Version exists, but the package has no README
- The ID exists, but the version does not
- The ID does not exist at all
There are only 3 authors (me, another MSFT person, and a community
member) explicitly setting the old value. The DB migration will fix the
issue. A future publish will fail with the validation error but the
error message is clear.
`registry type and base URL do not match: 'https://api.nuget.org' is not
valid for registry type 'nuget'. Expected:
https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json`
## How Has This Been Tested?
<!-- Have you tested this in a real application? Which scenarios were
tested? -->
- Unit tests, new and existing
- Manual test locally
- Set old data in the DB, `docker compose up`, confirm the migration
updates the specific package
## Breaking Changes
Yes, but minimal impact expected, unless there is a dependency on the
specific `https://api.nuget.org` value downstream. I am not aware of any
such dependency, and the new value is more proper and specific.

For more information about the NuGet API see:

wrote most of the docs).
The schema in this repo may contain unreleased changes, so labeling it
with a dated version URL is misleading. Change to use a `draft` URL
instead, and add documentation for the schema contribution process.
- Update $id in server.schema.json to use draft URL
- Update example $schema URL in openapi.yaml
- Add Draft (Unreleased) section to CHANGELOG.md
- Add CONTRIBUTING.md with process for making/releasing schema changes

## Motivation and Context
<!-- Why is this change needed? What problem does it solve? -->
The following adds a DELETE method to the reference API specification of
the registry.
The endpoint is consistent with the rest of the spec and provides a
standardised way for registry implementations to support deletion if
they choose to.
**Details:**
* Endpoint: DELETE /v0/servers/{serverName}/versions/{version}
* Uses tags: [publish] (same as POST /v0/publish for write operations)
* Requires security: bearerAuth authentication
* Returns ServerResponse on success (200) - matching POST pattern
* Same error responses: 401 (Unauthorized), 403 (Forbidden), 500
(Internal error)
* Added 404 (Not Found) for when server/version doesn't exist
* Parameters match the GET endpoint format with URL-encoding examples
* Marked as "(Optional)" in summary
* Explicit note that it's not implemented by the official registry
* States it's included for standardization purposes

This PR adds a Go tool that extracts the ServerDetail schema from
openapi.yaml and generates server.schema.json, ensuring the two specs
stay in sync.
## Key Changes
### New Tooling
- **Go tool** at `tools/extract-server-schema/` that auto-discovers all
schemas referenced by ServerDetail and extracts them from OpenAPI
- **make targets**: `generate-schema` (generates schema) and
`check-schema` (verifies sync)
- `check-schema` is now included in `make validate` and `make check`
### Preserved Validation Constraints
The initial auto-generated schema lost many important validation rules
and descriptive guidance from the hand-crafted version. The OpenAPI spec
has been updated to preserve:
**Security & Descriptions:**
- Command injection security warning on Arguments
- Detailed field descriptions with usage guidance
- `placeholder` field for Input schema
**Validation Constraints:**
- `fileSha256` pattern validation (`^[a-f0-9]{64}$`)
- Package version restrictions (minLength: 1, no "latest")
- `transport` as required field in Package
- ServerDetail `name` pattern and length constraints (3-200 chars)
- Description, title, and version length limits
**Documentation:**
- Repository field descriptions (url, source, id, subfolder)
- PositionalArgument `valueHint` explains transport URL substitution
- Updated examples to match hand-crafted version (Weather API theme)
**Intentional Changes:**
- Removed `additionalProperties` constraints for flexibility
- Updated schema title to be more descriptive
- Added `$comment` noting auto-generation
See the commit "Preserve validation constraints in auto-generated
server.schema.json" for details.
### Fixed Missing Package.transport
- Added `transport` field to OpenAPI Package schema (was in Go model at
`pkg/model/types.go:30` but missing from OpenAPI)
- Split transport types into three separate schemas with proper
discriminated unions:
- `StdioTransport` - Only requires `type: stdio`
- `StreamableHttpTransport` - Requires `type` and `url`, supports
`headers`
- `SseTransport` - Requires `type` and `url`, supports `headers`
- `Package.transport` uses `anyOf` with all three types
- `ServerDetail.remotes` uses `anyOf` with only remote types (no stdio)
### Other Improvements
- Added `GOTOOLCHAIN=auto` to Makefile for Go 1.25 compatibility
- Added `DRIFT_ANALYSIS.md` documenting all schema drift issues found
between specs
## Benefits
**Single Source of Truth**: The OpenAPI spec now serves as the
authoritative schema definition, with server.schema.json automatically
derived from it.
**Better Validation**: All critical validation rules (patterns, length
constraints, required fields) and security warnings are preserved in the
generated schema.
**Improved Developer Experience**:
- Schema changes only need to be made in one place (openapi.yaml)
- CI validation ensures specs never drift apart
- Clear auto-generation comment prevents manual edits
## Validation
✅ All 20 examples validate correctly
✅ Lint passes with 0 issues
✅ Schema is in sync with OpenAPI
✅ All validation constraints from hand-crafted schema preserved

Implements icon support based on the Model Context Protocol
specification, allowing servers to specify display icons with optional
size, MIME type, and theme variants.
## Changes
- Add `Icon` type to `pkg/model/types.go` with struct tags for automatic
API validation
- Add `icons` field to `ServerJSON` in `pkg/api/v0/types.go`
- Add icon validation in `internal/validators/validators.go`:
- Only HTTPS URLs allowed (no HTTP or data URIs)
- Maximum URL length of 255 characters
- Validates absolute URLs with proper scheme
- Update JSON schema and OpenAPI documentation with Icon definitions
- Add comprehensive test cases for icon validation
- Add example icon to seed.json (Airtable server)
- Change `websiteUrl` validation to HTTPS-only for consistency
## Implementation Details
The implementation uses a two-layer validation architecture:
1. **Huma framework** validates struct tags (`required`, `maxLength`,
`enum`, `pattern`) and returns 422 for violations
2. **Custom validators** handle business logic (HTTPS scheme
requirement, absolute URL requirement) and return 400 for violations
This approach leverages Huma's automatic validation while keeping
business-specific rules in the validator layer.
## Icon Field Specification
- `src` (required): HTTPS URL to icon resource, max 255 characters
- `mimeType` (optional): One of `image/png`, `image/jpeg`, `image/jpg`,
`image/svg+xml`, `image/webp`
- `sizes` (optional): Array of size strings in "WxH" format or "any" for
scalable formats
- `theme` (optional): Either "light" or "dark" to indicate intended
background
Multiple icons can be provided (e.g., for different themes or sizes).
Remove redundant endpoint as suggested in #617. Clients should now use
`GET /v0/servers/{serverName}/versions/latest` instead (using `latest`
as a special version value in the existing endpoint).
This simplifies the API surface and reduces implementation burden for
subregistries, while maintaining a clear migration path for consumers.
## Changes
- Removed `GET /v0/servers/{serverName}` endpoint
- Updated `GET /v0/servers/{serverName}/versions/{version}` to accept
`latest` as special version
- Updated all tests to use new endpoint pattern
- Updated documentation and OpenAPI spec
- Added breaking change notice to CHANGELOG
Fixes#617
Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
## Summary
Introduces a new optional `title` field for MCP servers to provide a
clean, human-readable display name that clients and subregistries can
use for display purposes.
Fixes#606
## Changes
- Added `title` field to `ServerJSON` type (optional, max 100 chars)
- Added validation to reject titles ending with 'MCP Server', 'MCP
server', or 'MCP' suffixes
- Updated JSON schema and OpenAPI specification
- Added comprehensive test coverage for title validation
- Updated all documentation examples to demonstrate the new field
## Validation
The title field:
- Is optional (can be omitted)
- Must not be only whitespace if provided
- Must not end with MCP-related suffixes (case-insensitive)
- Can contain 'MCP' in the middle (e.g., "MCP Weather API" is valid)
Examples:
- ✅ Valid: "GitHub", "Weather API", "Slack Integration"
- ❌ Invalid: "GitHub MCP", "Weather MCP Server", "Slack-MCP"

This PR simplifies the OpenAPI schema by merging the `Server` component
into `ServerDetail`, addressing the issue where the `Server` component
was never used independently.
## Changes
- Merged all Server properties directly into ServerDetail in both
OpenAPI spec and JSON schema
- Removed allOf construct for clearer, standalone definitions
- Deleted unused Server components
## Benefits
- Clearer schema structure
- Easier to understand without inheritance tracing
- Reduced maintenance complexity
- No functionality loss
## Validation
All schemas and documentation examples continue to validate
successfully.

Wielded Claude Code to do this; across many iterations and have reviewed
all the code + largely rewritten the PR commentary here.
This PR implements the server ID consistency changes from
[#396](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/issues/396). Our
goal is to:
- Rename `id` to `versionId` to make it clear that it is the ID for a
specific version, not a server
- Introduce `serverId` as a net new concept. This will be 1:1 with
`name`. While not strictly necessary (we could just use name as a PK),
the convention of having a UUID as an ID on our objects is just a
helpful subjective architecture decision. Plus also leaves open the door
to reconsidering the "should we allow renames" question.
## Key Changes
### 🗄️ Database Schema Changes
- **Renamed**: `id` column → `version_id` (unique identifier for each
server version)
### 📋 Metadata Structure Updates
- **JSON Schema**: Updated
`_meta.io.modelcontextprotocol.registry/official` to include:
- `serverId`: Consistent ID across all versions of a server
- `versionId`: Unique ID for this specific version (renamed from `id`)
### 🔧 API Endpoint Updates
- **New endpoint structure**: Changed from version-ID-based to
server-ID-based URLs:
- `GET /v0/servers/{server_id}` - Get latest version of server
- `GET /v0/servers/{server_id}?version=X.X.X` - Get specific version
- `GET /v0/servers/{server_id}/versions` - List all versions of a server
- `PUT /v0/servers/{server_id}?version=X.X.X` - Edit specific version
- **Consistent URL patterns**: All server endpoints now use `server_id`
as the primary identifier
### Database Migration Strategy
The migration (`005_add_server_id_rename_version_id.sql`):
1. Adds new `version_id` column
2. Generates deterministic UUIDs for servers with the same name
3. Updates JSON metadata to add `serverId` and rename `id` to
`versionId`
4. Copies existing `id` values to `version_id` column
5. Drops old `id` column and makes `version_id` the new primary key
## Testing
Besides of course automated tests passing, I:
1. Set up my local db with the pre-005-migration state, imported all the
production data
2. Ran the migration
3. Spot checked some diffs of the data that resulted --
```json

## Summary
- Fixed `Remote` schema in OpenAPI spec to use correct field name `type`
instead of `transport_type`
- Updated enum values from `[streamable, sse]` to `[streamable-http,
sse]` to match actual API
## Context
The OpenAPI spec was inconsistent with the actual API implementation.
The live API at https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/v0/servers
returns `type: 'sse'` and `type: 'streamable-http'`, but the spec
defined `transport_type` with values `streamable` and `sse`.
This now matches:
- The Go constants in pkg/model/constants.go
- The actual API responses
Adds optional website_url field to the server.json schema allowing
publishers to provide a url to the server's homepage, documentation, or
project website. This provides a central link for users to learn more
about the server. Particularly useful when the server has custom
installation instructions or setup requirements.
Issue: #183
PR: #130
Discussion: #274
## Motivation and Context
This change addresses the need identified in #130, #183 and #274 for a
standardized way to direct users to an official landing page similar to
`homepage` used in NPM
([example](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@modelcontextprotocol/sdk)). It
is also serves as a viable option for MCP Servers that don't follow
typical package manager patterns (e.g., embedded in a Desktop app).
## How Has This Been Tested?
- Schema validation: All 13 example server.json files validate
successfully against the updated schema
- Go validator tests: Added additional test cases covering URL format
validation and namespace matching
- Run all checks: Updated example files to work with anonymous
publishing and verified `make check` passes
## Breaking Changes
None. The website_url field is optional and backward compatible with
existing server.json files.
## Types of changes
- [ ] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
- [x] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
- [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing
functionality to change)
- [x] Documentation update
## Checklist
- [x] I have read the [MCP
Documentation](https://modelcontextprotocol.io)
- [x] My code follows the repository's style guidelines
- [x] New and existing tests pass locally
- [x] I have added appropriate error handling
- [x] I have added or updated documentation as needed
## Additional context
Security considerations:
- Website URL validation enforces that the domain matches the
publisher's reverse-DNS namespace
- HTTP/HTTPS protocols are required (no file:// or other schemes)
- Validation is consistent with existing remote URL validation patterns
## Summary
Simplified the schema structure by:
- Replacing `version_detail.version` with direct `version` field
- Removing unused `release_date` field from seed data
- Updating all API types, models, and tests to match new structure
- Maintaining backwards compatibility in API responses
This change makes the schema more intuitive and reduces nesting depth.
## Summary
Updates the `_meta` field structure to be compliant with the MCP
specification by using proper `prefix/name` format for vendor
extensions.
### Changes
- **Registry metadata**: `io.modelcontextprotocol.registry` →
`io.modelcontextprotocol.registry/official`
- **Publisher metadata**: `publisher` →
`io.modelcontextprotocol.registry/publisher-provided`
- **Database migration**: Updates indexes to use new field paths
- **Updated all code**: Service layer, validators, tests, and seed data
### Format Before
```json
{
"_meta": {
"publisher": { "license": "MIT" },
"io.modelcontextprotocol.registry": { "id": "...", "is_latest": true }
}
}
```
### Format After
```json
{
"_meta": {
"io.modelcontextprotocol.registry/publisher-provided": { "license": "MIT" },
"io.modelcontextprotocol.registry/official": { "id": "...", "is_latest": true }
}
}
```
This resolves the naming collision with the planned top-level
`publisher` field and ensures compliance with MCP specification
requirements.
Fixes#356
## Motivation and Context
Docs currently don't have very clear organisation, and don't explain
core flows.
This fixes#89 (although we still might want to push these to
`https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/`), based on the plan there.
One minor change from that plan is that I merged tutorials and guides,
because they ended up basically being duplicates which I thought would
be annoying for us to keep in sync. Additionally in the Diátaxis
framework, tutorials and guides are separated by whether they are
focused on acquisition of skills (e.g. in a learning environment) or
application of skills (e.g. in a work environment). I expect the
registry to be something that will be used occasionally in a work
environment, rather than a fundamental 'learnable' skill so I think it's
reasonable not to have tutorials and fold these into guides.
## How Has This Been Tested?
- Read through all these updated docs
- Unit and integration tests (that previously used examples.md and use
the schema) working
- Ran `npx markdown-link-check .` to check all the links work
## Breaking Changes
Links to old docs will break, but I don't think there are any. All
internal links have been checked and updated.
