getMcpManifest · GET /.well-known/mcp.json

## Endpoint
`GET /.well-known/mcp.json`

A standards-based MCP manifest declaring the Streamable HTTP endpoint, its eleven tools, capabilities, rate limits, and authentication, so clients that discover MCP servers by manifest can find this one.

## Authentication
```json
[]
```
An empty security requirement means this operation does not declare authentication. Read operation notes for entitlement and protocol-method requirements.

## Parameters

## Responses and errors
| HTTP status | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| 200 | The MCP manifest. |

## Response examples
No response example is supplied by OpenAPI for this operation. The complete response schemas are preserved below; use an actual response for observed values.

## Retry guidance
See [errors and retries](/docs/api/overview#errors-and-retries). Honor operation-specific response headers. A POST may create state; do not replay it automatically.
