+# Official MCP Registry packet
+
+The root [`server.json`](../server.json) describes Samva's hosted MCP server for
+the [official MCP Registry](https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/). It is a
+remote-only server: clients connect to `https://mcp.samva.dev` over
+streamable HTTP and authenticate through Samva's protected-resource metadata.
+
+## Identity and provenance
+
+- Registry name: `dev.samva/mcp`
+- Server implementation identity: `dev.samva/mcp` at version `1.0.0`
+- Documentation: <https://samva.dev/docs/developers/mcp>
+- Source repository: <https://github.com/SamvaHQ/samva>
+- GitHub repository ID: `1280248212`
+- Remote endpoint: <https://mcp.samva.dev>
+
+The `dev.samva` namespace is the reverse-DNS form of `samva.dev`. The domain
+authentication TXT record is managed at the `samva.dev` apex; its private key
+must remain outside this repository and outside CI logs. The manifest does not
+weaken or replace Samva's OAuth conformance.
+
+## Validation and publish gate
+
+Install the official publisher CLI, then validate the packet locally:
+
+```sh
+brew install mcp-publisher
+mcp-publisher validate server.json
+```
+
+The future authenticated publish flow is:
+
+```sh
+export MCP_REGISTRY_PRIVATE_KEY='REPLACE_WITH_THE_OUT_OF_BAND_PRIVATE_KEY'
+mcp-publisher login dns \
+  --domain samva.dev \
+  --private-key "$MCP_REGISTRY_PRIVATE_KEY"
+mcp-publisher publish
+```
+
+Do not run `mcp-publisher publish` as part of ordinary repository CI or while
+reviewing this packet. Publishing is an external registry mutation and remains
+a separate, explicit approval step after the manifest, endpoint, and domain
+authentication have been reviewed.
+
+The official registry's [server.json specification](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/blob/main/docs/reference/server-json/generic-server-json.md),
+[authentication guide](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/blob/main/docs/modelcontextprotocol-io/authentication.mdx),
+and [registry requirements](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/blob/main/docs/reference/server-json/official-registry-requirements.md)
+define the schema and namespace rules used by this packet.
