Add Metadata to MCP Server package.json

[JeremyDev87]

Add Metadata to MCP Server package.json

Summary

Add missing metadata fields to apps/mcp-server/package.json to ensure proper npm package distribution and discoverability.

Problem

• The publishable package lacks essential npm metadata
• Missing repository field prevents npm from linking to source code
• Missing bugs field makes it harder for users to report issues
• Missing homepage field reduces package visibility on npm
• Missing license field may cause npm publish warnings
• Missing author field affects package credibility
• Missing keywords field reduces searchability on npm

Solution

Add the missing metadata fields to apps/mcp-server/package.json.
