ci(mcp): auto-publish server.json to the MCP registry (+ Smithery)#399
Merged
Conversation
Adds server.json (dev.stitchapi/docs — remote Streamable-HTTP server, tools search_docs + get_doc) at the repo root, plus a workflow that publishes it to the official MCP registry via domain auth and to Smithery (idempotent upsert). The registry publish cascades to Glama + PulseMCP automatically. Safety: PRs run mcp-publisher validate only; the publish jobs never run on a PR and stay green/inert until MCP_PRIVATE_KEY / SMITHERY_API_KEY are set, so merging does not trigger an accidental publish or a red run. Each registry publish needs a unique version; workflow_dispatch forces a publish. One-time domain setup is in docs/MCP-PUBLISHING.md. Verified against modelcontextprotocol/registry (v1.7.9).

System openssl on macOS is LibreSSL, which fails Ed25519 keygen with 'Algorithm Ed25519 not found'. Lead with openssl@3 via an arch-independent `brew --prefix` path, and add an ECDSA P-384 no-install fallback. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The MCP registry keygen in docs/MCP-PUBLISHING.md writes key.pem; ignoring *.pem/*.key keeps a private key from being committed by accident. Keys live in GitHub Actions secrets, not the repo. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Automates publishing the hosted docs MCP to the MCP registries.

So merging this won't produce a red run or an accidental publish.version(the registry rejects duplicates); the workflow guards on that, andworkflow_dispatchis the explicit "publish now" once your domain is verified.To go live (one-time, yours — you said you can do the domain verification)
