Become mcp-server, in the package name too - #21
Merged
Conversation
The repository was renamed from ai-mcp to mcp-server: `mcp` names a protocol, `mcp-server` names the thing, and somebody scanning the organisation's repository list should not have to click to find out which it is. The package follows - `@abap2ui5/mcp-server`, not `@abap2ui5/mcp`. The timing is the point. RELEASING.md says it itself: the package name is the one thing a release cannot take back. Nothing is published yet, so the name costs four files today and nothing downstream; after the first publish it would cost a deprecation and a second name to explain forever. A repository whose name differs from its only package is exactly the discrepancy the rename was for. lib/repo-dirs.json gains an entry for this server itself. It resolves nothing for its own sake - the file exists so the server can find its NEIGHBOURS - but abap2UI5/vscode-extension looks for a local checkout of this repository by directory name before falling back to npx, and after a rename it would look for the wrong one. Listing both names there is what that file is for: the ecosystem's rename history, in one place. The npx spec stays on `github:abap2UI5/mcp-server` rather than moving to the npm package, because the package does not exist yet. Moving it is the last step of the first release, and RELEASING.md says where. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

lib/repo-dirs.jsonexists so this server can find its neighbours. It now also carries aserverentry listingmcp-serverandai-mcp, because abap2UI5/vscode-extension looks for a local checkout of this repository by directory name before falling back to npx — and after a rename it would have looked for the wrong one, silently starting the network copy instead of the clone the user pointed at. That entry is what the extension's fix consumes.Deliberately unchanged
