- Document required naming pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]{1,128}$
- Specify allowed characters: alphanumeric, hyphens, underscores only
- Add warning about dots and special characters causing failures
- Include example of correct naming convention
Fixes issue where MCP servers with dots in names (like awslabs.aws-documentation-mcp-server) cause malformed tool calls due to Anthropic's regex validation.

Summary
Adds documentation for MCP server naming constraints to prevent connection failures caused by invalid server names.
Changes
^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]{1,128}$Context
This addresses the issue where MCP servers with dots in their names (like
awslabs.aws-documentation-mcp-server) cause malformed tool calls due to Anthropic's regex validation requirements. The documentation now clearly specifies the naming constraints to prevent these failures.Files Changed
