/**
* Metadata key for associating a resource URI with a tool call.
*
* MCP servers include this key in tool call result metadata to indicate which
* UI resource should be displayed for the tool. When hosts receive a tool result
* containing this metadata, they resolve and render the corresponding App.
*
* **Note**: This constant is provided for reference. MCP servers set this metadata
* in their tool handlers; App developers typically don't need to use it directly.
*
* @example How MCP servers use this key (server-side, not in Apps)
* ```typescript
* // In an MCP server's tool handler:
* return {
* content: [{ type: "text", text: "Result" }],
* _meta: {
* [RESOURCE_URI_META_KEY]: "ui://weather/forecast"
* }
* };
* ```
*
* @example How hosts check for this metadata (host-side)
* ```typescript
* const result = await mcpClient.callTool({ name: "weather", arguments: {} });
* const uiUri = result._meta?.[RESOURCE_URI_META_KEY];
* if (uiUri) {
* // Load and display the UI resource

/**
* Main class for MCP Apps to communicate with their host.
*
* The App class provides a framework-agnostic way to build interactive MCP Apps
* that run inside host applications. It extends the MCP SDK's Protocol class and
* handles the connection lifecycle, initialization handshake, and bidirectional
* communication with the host.
*
* ## Architecture
*
* Guest UIs (Apps) act as MCP clients connecting to the host via {@link PostMessageTransport}.
* The host proxies requests to the actual MCP server and forwards
* responses back to the App.
*
* ## Lifecycle
*
* 1. **Create**: Instantiate App with info and capabilities
* 2. **Connect**: Call `connect()` to establish transport and perform handshake
* 3. **Interactive**: Send requests, receive notifications, call tools
* 4. **Cleanup**: Host sends teardown request before unmounting
*
* ## Inherited Methods
*
* As a subclass of Protocol, App inherits key methods for handling communication:
* - `setRequestHandler()` - Register handlers for requests from host
* - `setNotificationHandler()` - Register handlers for notifications from host
*
* @see Protocol from @modelcontextprotocol/sdk for all inherited methods
*
* ## Notification Setters
*
* For common notifications, the App class provides convenient setter properties
* that simplify handler registration:
* - `ontoolinput` - Complete tool arguments from host
* - `ontoolinputpartial` - Streaming partial tool arguments
* - `ontoolresult` - Tool execution results
* - `onhostcontextchanged` - Host context changes (theme, viewport, etc.)
*
* These setters are convenience wrappers around `setNotificationHandler()`.
* Both patterns work; use whichever fits your coding style better.
*
* @example Basic usage with PostMessageTransport
* ```typescript
* import {
* App,
* PostMessageTransport,
* McpUiToolInputNotificationSchema
* } from '@modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps';
*
* const app = new App(
* { name: "WeatherApp", version: "1.0.0" },
* {} // capabilities
* );
*
* // Register notification handler using setter (simpler)
* app.ontoolinput = (params) => {
* console.log("Tool arguments:", params.arguments);
* };
*
* // OR using inherited setNotificationHandler (more explicit)
* app.setNotificationHandler(
* McpUiToolInputNotificationSchema,
* (notification) => {
* console.log("Tool arguments:", notification.params.arguments);
* }
* );
*
* await app.connect(new PostMessageTransport(window.parent));
* ```
*
* @example Sending a message to the host's chat
* ```typescript
* await app.sendMessage({
* role: "user",
* content: [{ type: "text", text: "Weather updated!" }]
* });
* ```
