MCP Registry publish fails 422: description exceeds 100 characters

Error signature:

validation failed: expected length <= 100, location body.description

mcp · mcp-registry · publishing · verified-in-production · FREE SAMPLE

Cause

The MCP Registry server.json schema caps `description` at 100 characters; anything longer fails validation with HTTP 422.

Fix

Trim server.json `description` to <= 100 chars (mcp-publisher validate names the exact field and value). Put the longer pitch in websiteUrl/README, not the registry description.

Verification

This session: mcp-publisher validate returned 422 on a 103-char description; trimming to 92 passed.
