## 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
<!-- 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 new `transport` type used in Package and Remotes
* Added `docker` to the `runtime_hint` examples
* Added support for templated URLs. It is available for streamable-http
and sse transports for Packages. I didn't thought of reasons to have
this for Remotes, but we can enable it if needed.
* Added validation for templated URLs so we can ensure all referenced
placeholder variables are available.
* For streamable-http and SSE transport types the URL is now a required
property
* Updated the publisher init command to reflect these changes
* Updated the seed.json file
* Added unit tests for the transport type related changes
* Updated the server.json schema and the external pkg structs to reflect
the new transport type
* Updated the examples
Thanks to @kkkarthik for spotting it! 🙏

The following PR:
* Adds the Transport Type property to Packages. _Even though most
packaged MCP servers are stdio this is not always the case so it's nice
to have the option to specify this for clients._
* Adds a constant for the "stdio" type
* Renames the "streamable" one to "streamable-http" (matching better how
the spec refers to it)
* Updates the seed.file to reflect these changes

Updates the registry type for all Docker Hub packages in the seed data
from `docker-hub` to `oci` to align with the standardized OCI registry
format. This change affects the `registry_type` field and simplifies the
`identifier` field by removing the full Docker Hub URL prefix.
Changes:
- Updated `registry_type` from `docker-hub` to `oci` for all Docker
packages
- Simplified `identifier` field to use just the repository name/path
instead of full URLs
- Maintained `registry_base_url` as `https://docker.io` for all entries
This refactoring improves consistency and aligns with OCI standards
while maintaining backward compatibility through the registry base URL.

the merge conflicts...

## Motivation and Context
Closes#145
Add comprehensive validation for named arguments in MCP server packages
to ensure argument names, values, and defaults follow proper format
conventions. This prevents common issues where argument names contain
embedded values or descriptions, and where values/defaults incorrectly
start with the argument name itself.
Key changes:
- Add ArgumentValidator with validation rules for named argument format
- Enhance PackageValidator to validate runtime and package arguments
- Update import process to log warnings for invalid servers instead of
failing
- Fix 396 servers in seed.json with malformed named arguments
- Extended `validate-examples` tool to apply the object validator (it
was completely missed before)
- Add comprehensive test coverage for all validation scenarios
Examples of fixes applied:
- "--directory <path>" → "--directory" with value "<path>"
- "--with-editable $REPO" → "--with-editable" with value "$REPO"
- "recipient@example.com" → "--recipient" (proper argument naming)
All servers now pass validation during both API publishing and data
import.
🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code)
## How Has This Been Tested?
With ad-hoc unit tests.
Manual integration tests of built artifact and the seed data.
## Breaking Changes
New registrations need to follow the argument name conventions,
otherwise the import would fail for the inconsistent servers.

<!-- Provide a brief summary of your changes -->
This PR serves as a placeholder and brings together all of the changes
related to supporting vendor extensions passed through the API. The idea
is to have a single place to track and review the work as it comes
together (even if it’s still a bit of a work in progress).
**The changes in this PR cover:**
* Updates on the data model
* Updates on both databases (in-memory and postgresql), added a new
table to PSQL for tracking the extensions leaving the server table only
for the clean server.json properties
* Updates the seed.json file (thus the big line change)
* Adds a seed-migrate tool to help migrating an existing seed file to
the new format
* Updates the seed import mechanism to support this
* Updates the existing tests - unit, integration and validation tests
* Adds the publish handler to the OpenAPI spec (it was missing)
* Fixes linting errors
* Updates on the API side on (publish, list, get) to support the new
format of `ServerResponse` -
```
{
"server": {},
"x-io.modelcontextprotocol.registry": {}, /*not available for publish since this gets populated by the registry*/
"x-publisher": {}
}
```
## Motivation and Context
<!-- Why is this change needed? What problem does it solve? -->
Motivated by the discussions in:

## How Has This Been Tested?
<!-- Have you tested this in a real application? Which scenarios were
tested? -->
Locally and by running all of the tests
## Breaking Changes
<!-- Will users need to update their code or configurations? -->
Yes, it changes both the API and the format of the seed file

Renamed `data/seed_2025_05_16.json` to `data/seed.json` and updated `Dockerfile`
## Motivation and Context
When cloning the repository and building the project using:
```bash
go build ./cmd/registry
.\\registry.exe
```
the application fails to start because the default seed file path
(`data/seed.json`) does not exist in the repo:
```
Failed to read seed file: failed to read file: open data/seed.json: The system cannot find the file specified.
```
## How Has This Been Tested?
```bash
go build ./cmd/registry
.\\registry.exe // ./registry
```
## Breaking Changes
None

I originally introduced `package_canonical` into the API schema because,
at the time, we were thinking to "pin" the version of the MCP server to
_one_ of the referenced source code packages.
We are no longer doing this (we are maintaining a separate notion of
`version` unique to the MCP server), so I don't believe
`package_canonical` is needed anymore. Does anyone see otherwise?
This change removes all mentions in READMEs and usages in code.
* Update the model to handle new changes to schema based on https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/pull/33
* Made the import script a little simpler.
* Add a new updated seed file
* update template mcp.json file for publisher
