Supports publishing the MCP server as an npm package, allowing for easy distribution and installation of the custom tools.
Uses TypeScript for tool development, providing type safety and better developer experience when creating custom MCP tools.
Leverages Zod for schema validation in tool development, ensuring proper input validation for tools that integrate with the MCP server.
