SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires @modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps, @modelcontextprotocol/sdk, zod, tsx, vite, vite-plugin-singlefile, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables you to integrate existing web applications with the MCP App SDK, allowing them to function both as standalone web pages and as MCP Apps that render inline within MCP-enabled hosts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Hybrid App Development: Adapt a single codebase to work in both standalone and MCP App environments.
  • Seamless Integration: Wrap existing UIs as MCP Apps with minimal code changes.
  • Use Case: You have a complex React-based dashboard currently accessible via a URL. This Skill helps you modify it so it can also be launched and interacted with directly within a chat interface as an MCP App.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert a React web app to an MCP App?▼

A hybrid MCP App detects its runtime environment to function both as a standalone web page and as an inline application within MCP-enabled hosts. It uses a thin initialization layer to manage lifecycle, styling, and data exchange through the MCP App SDK.

Does my web app need a complete rewrite to support MCP App SDK integration?▼

No, MCP App SDK integration does not require a complete rewrite. You can wrap existing UIs as MCP Apps with minimal code changes by adding an initialization layer that supports hybrid web and MCP App development from a single codebase.

Can I use Vite with the MCP App SDK for hybrid development?▼

Yes, Vite is supported for hybrid MCP App development. The SDK integrates with Vite and vite-plugin-singlefile to bundle existing web applications into MCP Apps that render inline within MCP-enabled hosts.

How does server-side tool and resource registration work in an MCP App?▼

Server-side tool and resource registration in an MCP App is handled through the MCP App SDK integration. This mechanism allows your converted web application to expose interactive tools and resources directly within a chat interface.

What is the best way to adapt an existing dashboard for a chat interface?▼

The best way to adapt an existing dashboard for a chat interface is to wrap it as an MCP App. This approach adds an initialization layer so your React dashboard can launch and interact directly within MCP-enabled hosts.
