For the publisher
- The package imports FastMCP from mcp.server.fastmcp. mcp 2.0, the Python SDK of 28 July 2026, renamed FastMCP to MCPServer, and the package asks for mcp with no upper bound, so a plain install (uvx, pip) gets mcp 2.x and the server stops at the import. Installed with mcp<2, it starts and lists its tools. The fix for the publisher: pin mcp<2 in the dependencies, for example mcp>=1.2,<2, and publish a new version, or move to MCPServer as the SDK's migration guide says. Until then, run it with uvx --with 'mcp<2'.
The cause and the fix, with the code before and after: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mcp.server.fastmcp'
