## Motivation and Context
This allows the private key used for DNS or HTTP based authentication to
be stored securely in a cloud key management system. These services
often provide HSM storage which makes it very hard to leak the private
key.
The full context is described in my design document here:
https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/issues/482#issuecomment-3437117171
## How Has This Been Tested?
I have tested it against PROD using an Ed25519 key stored in Google KMS.
I have added unit tests. I have tested both ECDSA P-384 and Ed25519 with
Az KV and Google KMS against a locally running server.
## Breaking Changes
None intended.

The following PR adds a new v0.1 API version.
The goal is to mark v0.1 as a "freeze" point while keeping v0 as the
moving target for new features so integrators can start building on top
of something stable(r).
Details:
* This change is quite simple - we re-register the same handlers twice,
once as `v0` and once as `v0.1`
* Going forward, we'll keep v0.1 frozen while we add changes either on
top of both (non-breaking) or we'll have to branch if breaking changes
are necessary
* We all acknowledge this is not exactly best-practice, but it gives us
a way to gather feedback and allow clients to start integrating with the
API without breaking them (**note** this implies a follow up PR that
would branch the handlers used in v0.1).
* For integrators/clients: please provide your feedback - what works
well, what doesn't so we can take this into account going towards GA.
## How Has This Been Tested?
<!-- Have you tested this in a real application? Which scenarios were

## Breaking Changes
<!-- Will users need to update their code or configurations? -->
No, this just adds a new API version alongside the existing one.

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"

## Summary
This PR removes version numbers from release asset names and updates
documentation to use GitHub's `latest` tag for mcp-publisher downloads.
## Changes
1. **Updated `.goreleaser.yaml`**: Removed `{{ .Version }}` from asset
name templates
- Changed from: `mcp-publisher_{{ .Version }}_{{ .Os }}_{{ .Arch }}`
- Changed to: `mcp-publisher_{{ .Os }}_{{ .Arch }}`
2. **Updated documentation**: Changed all download URLs to use `latest`
tag instead of version-pinned URLs
- `docs/guides/publishing/publish-server.md`
- `docs/guides/publishing/github-actions.md`
## Benefits
- Documentation stays automatically up-to-date without manual changes or
workflows
- Users always get the latest version by default
- Version pinning still possible using specific tags (e.g.,
`https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/releases/download/v1.2.3/mcp-publisher_darwin_amd64.tar.gz`)
- Simpler maintenance and better user experience
## Notes
The new asset naming will take effect with the next release. After that,
users can immediately start using the `latest` tag.
Fixes#607
## Summary
Changes `streamable-http` to be the recommended and primary transport
type in documentation examples, while keeping SSE as a secondary option
during the preview period.
## Changes
- ✅ Update all primary remote server examples to use `streamable-http`
- ✅ Reorder multi-transport examples to show `streamable-http` first
- ✅ Add note that SSE is deprecated but still supported during preview
- ✅ Update transport protocol requirements text to indicate
`streamable-http` (recommended) and `sse` (deprecated)
## Context
As noted in issue #487, the docs were using SSE as the primary example
despite it being deprecated in the MCP specification (2025-06-18) in
favor of streamable HTTP. This PR aligns the documentation with the spec
while maintaining backward compatibility information for the preview
period.
Per maintainer feedback on the issue:
- SSE is still supported during the preview phase
- Eventually SSE support will be removed
- The community would benefit from consistent messaging about the
preferred transport
## Files Changed
- `docs/guides/publishing/publish-server.md` - Main publishing guide
- `docs/reference/server-json/generic-server-json.md` - Reference
documentation with examples
## Approach
This takes a balanced approach:
- Makes streamable-http the clear primary/recommended option
- Keeps SSE documented as supported during preview (not hidden)
- Adds explicit note about deprecation status
- Minimal changes, focused on examples and ordering

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

This commit implements support for publishing MCP servers to GitHub
Container
Registry (ghcr.io) in addition to the existing Docker Hub support,
addressing
Docker Hub rate limiting concerns as requested in #393.
Key changes:
- Add RegistryURLGHCR constant for https://ghcr.io
- Refactor OCI validation to support multiple container registries with
extensible RegistryConfig system
- Implement registry-agnostic authentication system that handles:
- Docker Hub token-based authentication via auth.docker.io
- GHCR token-based authentication via ghcr.io/token service
- Update Accept headers to support OCI image indexes for multi-arch
images
- Extract helper functions to reduce cyclomatic complexity and improve
code maintainability
- Add comprehensive test coverage for both Docker Hub and GHCR scenarios
- Include real image testing with github/github-mcp-server and
nkapila6/mcp-local-rag
- Update publishing documentation with GHCR examples and authentication
details
The implementation maintains backward compatibility with existing Docker
Hub
usage while providing a future-proof architecture for adding additional
container registries. All authentication is now handled through proper
token
services for both registries.
Fixes#393
## Motivation and Context
Docker Hub rate limiting has been causing issues for the MCP registry
when validating OCI images. Adding GHCR support provides an alternative
container registry that many MCP server authors are already using,
reducing the load on Docker Hub and providing more options for the
community.
## How Has This Been Tested?
- All existing unit tests continue to pass
- Added comprehensive test coverage for GHCR scenarios including:
- Non-existent images (proper error handling)
- Real images without MCP annotations (github/github-mcp-server)
- Real images with proper MCP annotations (nkapila6/mcp-local-rag)
- Registry URL validation for both supported registries
- Tested authentication flow manually using curl commands
- Verified multi-arch image support with OCI index manifests
## Breaking Changes
None. This is a purely additive change that maintains full backward
compatibility with existing Docker Hub configurations.
## Types of changes
- [x] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
- [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
The implementation uses a RegistryConfig struct to abstract
registry-specific details like API endpoints, authentication URLs, and
token services. This design makes it straightforward to add support for
additional container registries in the future (such as AWS ECR, Azure
Container Registry, etc.) by simply adding new cases to the
getRegistryConfig function.
The authentication system properly handles the different token services
used by each registry:
- Docker Hub: auth.docker.io with service=registry.docker.io
- GHCR: ghcr.io/token with service=ghcr.io
Both registries now support the full OCI specification including
multi-arch images via OCI image indexes.

Simplifies the GitHub Actions publishing guide to be more concise and
easier to follow:
## Changes
- Streamlined MCP publisher installation with single-line curl command
(no more chmod/directory operations)
- Condensed authentication methods into compact sections
- Reduced language-specific examples to essential steps only
- Updated GitHub Actions to use latest versions (v5)
- Made test/build steps optional with `--if-present` flag
- Added helpful AI assistant prompt tip to publish-server.md
## Result
The guide is now much more succinct while maintaining all essential
information, following the same simplified approach as the main
publishing guide.
Remove 'Test Before Publishing' and 'Notification Setup' sections from
github-actions.md as these steps are redundant since the publisher API
already handles validation.

## Summary
- Clarifies that the `mcp-name` format can be included in comments
within README files for both PyPI and NuGet packages
- This allows publishers to hide this technical detail from end-user
documentation while still enabling registry discovery
## Context
The current documentation doesn't make it clear that the `mcp-name` line
can be hidden in a comment, which might lead publishers to include
visible technical details in their package documentation when they
prefer to keep it clean for end users.
The publishing guide incorrectly suggested users could verify their
server by directly accessing `/servers/{server-name}` or
`/v0/servers/{server-name}`, but the API only supports:
1. **Search by name**: `GET /v0/servers?search={server-name}`
2. **Get by UUID**: `GET /v0/servers/{uuid}`
This PR updates the documentation to show the correct verification
method using the search endpoint.
Fixes#410
Fixes#385
Updates DNS authentication documentation to correctly specify that TXT
records should be placed at the root domain (e.g., `example.com`) rather
than the `_mcp-registry` subdomain.
The implementation correctly looks up TXT records at the root domain,
but the documentation incorrectly instructed users to create records at
`_mcp-registry.<domain>`. This mismatch was causing authentication
failures.
## Why use root domain instead of subdomain?
The root domain approach is clearer: if you want to publish to
`com.example/my-server`, you authenticate with `example.com`, not
`_mcp-registry.example.com`.
It also aligns with other TXT DNS standards, e.g. SPF. (That said, there
are other DNS standards that use subdomains e.g. DKIM 🤷)
## Changes
- Updated publish-server.md to remove `_mcp-registry.` prefix from DNS
examples
- Updated CLI commands reference documentation
- Updated namespacing explanation documentation
## Summary
Simplifies the installation instructions in the publisher guide by:
- Auto-detecting platform using `uname` and PowerShell built-ins for a
single copy-paste command
- Moving build-from-source to a collapsible details section to emphasize
the recommended pre-built binary approach
- Removing unnecessary `chmod +x` since tar preserves executable
permissions
- Adding explicit support for WSL
This makes it much easier for users to get started - they can now just
copy one command instead of picking from 4+ platform-specific options.

## 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
Implements mandatory file hash validation for MCPB (MCP Bundle) packages
to ensure file integrity and security.
## Changes
- **Validator enforcement**: MCPB packages now require `file_sha256`
field at publish time
- **Test coverage**: Updated all MCPB test cases to include valid
SHA-256 hashes
- **Documentation**: Updated publisher guide and schema to reflect hash
requirement
- **Error handling**: Clear error message when hash is missing
## Security Impact
This ensures the complete security workflow for MCPB packages:
1. Authors generate and provide SHA-256 hashes when publishing
2. Registry validates hash is present (but doesn't verify content)
3. MCP clients validate hash matches downloaded file before installation
Fixes#351
## 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.
