+
+MCP Apps integration for json-render. Serve json-render UIs as interactive [MCP Apps](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/extensions/apps) inside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-capable clients.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+npm install @json-render/mcp @json-render/core @modelcontextprotocol/sdk
+```
+
+For the iframe-side React UI, also install:
+
+```bash
+npm install @json-render/react react react-dom
+```
+
+See the [MCP example](https://github.com/vercel-labs/json-render/tree/main/examples/mcp) for a full working example.
+
+## Overview
+
+MCP Apps let MCP servers return interactive HTML UIs that render directly inside chat conversations. `@json-render/mcp` bridges json-render catalogs with the MCP Apps protocol:
+
+1. Your **catalog** defines which components and actions the AI can use
+2. The **MCP server** exposes the catalog as a tool with the spec schema
+3. The **bundled HTML** renders json-render specs inside the host's sandboxed iframe
+4. The AI generates a spec, the host renders it, and users interact with the live UI
+
+## Server API
+
+### createMcpApp
+
+Create a fully-configured MCP server. This is the main entry point.
+
+```typescript
+import { createMcpApp } from "@json-render/mcp";

+import fs from "node:fs";
+
+const server = createMcpApp({
+  name: "My Dashboard",
+  version: "1.0.0",
+  catalog: myCatalog,
+  html: fs.readFileSync("dist/index.html", "utf-8"),
+});

+
+## Client API (`@json-render/mcp/app`)
+
+These exports run inside the sandboxed iframe rendered by the MCP host.
+
+### useJsonRenderApp
+
+React hook that connects to the MCP host, listens for tool results, and maintains the current json-render spec.

+

+# MCP App Example
+
+A json-render MCP App that serves interactive shadcn/ui-based UIs directly inside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-capable clients.
+
+## Setup
+
+```bash
+pnpm install
+pnpm build
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### With Cursor
+
+Add to `.cursor/mcp.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "json-render": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["tsx", "examples/mcp/server.ts", "--stdio"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### With Claude Desktop
+
+Add to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "json-render": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["tsx", "/absolute/path/to/examples/mcp/server.ts", "--stdio"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### HTTP Transport
+
+```bash
+pnpm start
+# Server listens on http://localhost:3001/mcp
+```
+
+### Stdio Transport
+
+```bash
+pnpm start:stdio
+```
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. The Vite build bundles the React app (with shadcn components and `useJsonRenderApp` hook) into a single self-contained HTML file
+2. The MCP server registers a `render-ui` tool with the catalog prompt as its description
+3. When the LLM calls the tool, it generates a json-render spec constrained to the catalog
+4. The host renders the bundled HTML in a sandboxed iframe
+5. The iframe receives the spec via the MCP Apps protocol and renders it with json-render

 # @json-render/core
 
+## 0.12.1
+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- 54a1ecf: Rename generation modes and fix MCP React duplicate module error.
+
+  ### Changed:
+  - **`@json-render/core`** — Renamed generation modes from `"generate"` / `"chat"` to `"standalone"` / `"inline"`. The old names still work but emit a deprecation warning.
+
+  ### Fixed:
+  - **`@json-render/mcp`** — Resolved React duplicate module error (`useRef` returning null) by adding `resolve.dedupe` Vite configuration. Added `./build-app-html` export entry point.
+
+  ### Other:
+  - Updated `homepage` URLs across all packages to point to `https://json-render.dev`.
+  - Reorganized skills directory structure for cleaner naming.
+  - Added skills documentation page to the web app.
+
+## 0.12.0
+
+### Minor Changes
+
+- 63c339b: Add Svelte renderer, React Email renderer, and MCP Apps integration.
+
+  ### New:
+  - **`@json-render/svelte`** — Svelte 5 renderer with runes-based reactivity. Full support for data binding, visibility, actions, validation, watchers, streaming, and repeat scopes. Includes `defineRegistry`, `Renderer`, `schema`, composables, and context providers.
+  - **`@json-render/react-email`** — React Email renderer for generating HTML and plain-text emails from JSON specs. 17 standard components (Html, Head, Body, Container, Section, Row, Column, Heading, Text, Link, Button, Image, Hr, Preview, Markdown). Server-side `renderToHtml` / `renderToPlainText` APIs. Custom catalog and registry support.
+  - **`@json-render/mcp`** — MCP Apps integration that serves json-render UIs as interactive apps inside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-capable clients. `createMcpApp` server factory, `useJsonRenderApp` React hook for iframes, and `buildAppHtml` utility.
+
+  ### Fixed:
+  - **`@json-render/svelte`** — Corrected JSDoc comment and added missing `zod` peer dependency.

+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- 54a1ecf: Rename generation modes and fix MCP React duplicate module error.
+
+  ### Changed:
+  - **`@json-render/core`** — Renamed generation modes from `"generate"` / `"chat"` to `"standalone"` / `"inline"`. The old names still work but emit a deprecation warning.
+
+  ### Fixed:
+  - **`@json-render/mcp`** — Resolved React duplicate module error (`useRef` returning null) by adding `resolve.dedupe` Vite configuration. Added `./build-app-html` export entry point.
+
+  ### Other:
+  - Updated `homepage` URLs across all packages to point to `https://json-render.dev`.
+  - Reorganized skills directory structure for cleaner naming.
+  - Added skills documentation page to the web app.
+

+
+## 0.12.0
+
+### Minor Changes
+
+- 63c339b: Add Svelte renderer, React Email renderer, and MCP Apps integration.
+
+  ### New:
+  - **`@json-render/svelte`** — Svelte 5 renderer with runes-based reactivity. Full support for data binding, visibility, actions, validation, watchers, streaming, and repeat scopes. Includes `defineRegistry`, `Renderer`, `schema`, composables, and context providers.
+  - **`@json-render/react-email`** — React Email renderer for generating HTML and plain-text emails from JSON specs. 17 standard components (Html, Head, Body, Container, Section, Row, Column, Heading, Text, Link, Button, Image, Hr, Preview, Markdown). Server-side `renderToHtml` / `renderToPlainText` APIs. Custom catalog and registry support.
+  - **`@json-render/mcp`** — MCP Apps integration that serves json-render UIs as interactive apps inside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-capable clients. `createMcpApp` server factory, `useJsonRenderApp` React hook for iframes, and `buildAppHtml` utility.
+
+  ### Fixed:

+# @json-render/mcp
+
+MCP Apps integration for [json-render](https://github.com/vercel-labs/json-render). Serve json-render UIs as interactive MCP Apps inside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-capable clients.
+
+## What are MCP Apps?
+
+[MCP Apps](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/extensions/apps) is an extension to the Model Context Protocol that lets MCP servers return interactive HTML UIs rendered directly inside chat conversations. Instead of text-only tool responses, users get full interactive interfaces -- dashboards, forms, data visualizations -- embedded inline.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+npm install @json-render/mcp @json-render/core @modelcontextprotocol/sdk
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Define your catalog
+
+```ts
+import { defineCatalog } from "@json-render/core";
+import { schema } from "@json-render/react/schema";
+import { shadcnComponentDefinitions } from "@json-render/shadcn/catalog";
+
+const catalog = defineCatalog(schema, {
+  components: { ...shadcnComponentDefinitions },
+  actions: {},
+});
+```
+
+### 2. Create the MCP server
+
+```ts
+import { createMcpApp } from "@json-render/mcp";
+import { StdioServerTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/stdio.js";
+import fs from "node:fs";
+
+const server = createMcpApp({
+  name: "My Dashboard",
+  version: "1.0.0",
+  catalog,
+  html: fs.readFileSync("dist/index.html", "utf-8"),
+});
+
+await server.connect(new StdioServerTransport());
+```
+
+### 3. Build the UI (iframe)
+
+Create a React app that uses `useJsonRenderApp` from `@json-render/mcp/app`:
+
+```tsx
+import { useJsonRenderApp } from "@json-render/mcp/app";
+import { JSONUIProvider, Renderer } from "@json-render/react";
+
+function McpAppView({ registry }) {
+  const { spec, loading, connected, error } = useJsonRenderApp();
+
+  if (error) return <div>Error: {error.message}</div>;
+  if (!spec) return <div>Waiting for spec...</div>;
+
+  return (
+    <JSONUIProvider registry={registry} initialState={spec.state ?? {}}>
+      <Renderer spec={spec} registry={registry} loading={loading} />
+    </JSONUIProvider>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+Bundle with Vite + `vite-plugin-singlefile` into a single HTML file, then pass it to `createMcpApp` as the `html` option.
+
+### 4. Connect to a client
+
+Add to `.cursor/mcp.json` or Claude Desktop config:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "my-app": {
+      "command": "node",
+      "args": ["./server.js", "--stdio"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## API Reference
+
+### Server Side (main export)
+
+#### `createMcpApp(options)`
+
+Creates a fully-configured `McpServer` with a json-render tool and UI resource.
+
+| Option | Type | Description |
+|--------|------|-------------|
+| `name` | `string` | Server name shown in client UIs |
+| `version` | `string` | Server version |
+| `catalog` | `Catalog` | json-render catalog defining available components |
+| `html` | `string` | Bundled HTML for the iframe UI |
+| `tool` | `McpToolOptions` | Optional tool name/title/description overrides |
+
+#### `registerJsonRenderTool(server, options)`
+
+Register a json-render tool on an existing `McpServer`.
+
+#### `registerJsonRenderResource(server, options)`
+
+Register a json-render UI resource on an existing `McpServer`.
+
+### Client Side (`@json-render/mcp/app`)
+
+#### `useJsonRenderApp(options?)`
+
+React hook for the iframe-side app. Connects to the MCP host, receives tool results, and maintains the current json-render spec.
+
+Returns `{ spec, loading, connected, connecting, error, app, callServerTool }`.
+
+#### `buildAppHtml(options)`
+
+Generate a self-contained HTML string from bundled JS/CSS for use as a UI resource.
+
+## Client Support
+
+MCP Apps are supported by Claude, ChatGPT, VS Code (Copilot), Cursor, Goose, and Postman.

+# @json-render/react-email
+
+## 0.12.1
+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- Updated dependencies [54a1ecf]
+  - @json-render/core@0.12.1
+
+## 0.12.0
+
+### Minor Changes
+
+- 63c339b: Add Svelte renderer, React Email renderer, and MCP Apps integration.
+
+  ### New:
+  - **`@json-render/svelte`** — Svelte 5 renderer with runes-based reactivity. Full support for data binding, visibility, actions, validation, watchers, streaming, and repeat scopes. Includes `defineRegistry`, `Renderer`, `schema`, composables, and context providers.
+  - **`@json-render/react-email`** — React Email renderer for generating HTML and plain-text emails from JSON specs. 17 standard components (Html, Head, Body, Container, Section, Row, Column, Heading, Text, Link, Button, Image, Hr, Preview, Markdown). Server-side `renderToHtml` / `renderToPlainText` APIs. Custom catalog and registry support.
+  - **`@json-render/mcp`** — MCP Apps integration that serves json-render UIs as interactive apps inside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-capable clients. `createMcpApp` server factory, `useJsonRenderApp` React hook for iframes, and `buildAppHtml` utility.
+
+  ### Fixed:
+  - **`@json-render/svelte`** — Corrected JSDoc comment and added missing `zod` peer dependency.
+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- Updated dependencies [63c339b]
