This PR simplifies the seed data import configuration based on
maintainer feedback by removing command line flags and using a clearer
environment variable name.
## Key Changes
### Configuration Simplification
- **Renamed**: `MCP_REGISTRY_SEED_FILE_PATH` → `MCP_REGISTRY_SEED_FROM`
- **Removed**: `--seed-file-path` command line flag to eliminate
configuration complexity
### Improved User Experience
Users now configure seed data import using a single, clear environment
variable:
```bash
# Before (multiple ways to configure)
MCP_REGISTRY_SEED_FILE_PATH=data/seed.json ./registry
./registry --seed-file-path=data/seed.json
# After (simplified single method)
MCP_REGISTRY_SEED_FROM=data/seed.json ./registry
```
### Registry Composability
The composability workflow is now simplified while maintaining all
functionality:
```bash
# Start first registry with seed data
MCP_REGISTRY_SEED_FROM=data/seed.json ./registry
# Start second registry importing from first via pagination
MCP_REGISTRY_SEED_FROM=http://localhost:8080 ./registry
```
## Technical Implementation
- Maintains full backward compatibility for import functionality
- All existing seed data sources continue to work (local files, HTTP
URLs, registry URLs)
- Automatic pagination through `/v0/servers` endpoint remains unchanged
- Configurable delays between requests preserved
## Benefits
- **Reduced complexity**: Single configuration method instead of
multiple
- **Clearer naming**: `SEED_FROM` better describes the source of seed
data
- **Easier maintenance**: Fewer configuration paths to test and document
- **Consistent patterns**: Aligns with other environment-variable-only
configuration
All existing functionality is preserved while providing a cleaner, more
maintainable configuration interface.

This is a first PR for #159 - adding some validation scripts. I want to
get to a place where we are confident that making schema changes is in
sync with the rest of our code. Step one is making sure the schemas are
in sync with our examples. Step two will be making sure the schemas are
in sync with our actual Registry implementation code.
This is just for the JSON right now; if we're feeling good about this
approach I'll do an analogous change for the OpenAPI schemas as well.
I'll also follow with adding usage of these scripts to our CI pipeline
so we have automated checks on them with every change.
## Summary
- Added CLI validation tools for JSON schemas and examples in
`docs/server-json/`
- Fixed some minor validation errors found in `examples.md`
- Ensures schema consistency and example validity in CI/CD pipelines
## Changes
### New Validation Tools
1. **`tools/validate-schemas`** - Validates that `schema.json` and
`registry-schema.json` are valid JSON Schema documents
2. **`tools/validate-examples`** - Validates all JSON examples in
`examples.md` against both schemas
### Key Features
- ✅ Validates JSON schema syntax and structure
- ✅ Validates all examples against both base and registry schemas
- ✅ Tracks validation counts to prevent silent failures
- ✅ Proper exit codes for CI integration
- ✅ Clear error messages for debugging
### Fixes to examples.md
- Added missing `repository.id` field in NuGet example
- Changed `repository.source` from "gitlab" to "github" in Docker
example
### Usage
```bash
# From repository root
./tools/validate-schemas.sh
./tools/validate-examples.sh
```
## Testing
I ran these scripts locally with minor (breaking) changes, which they
each correctly reported. As submitted, they are both passing.
