6161is the default for anything wrapping a cloud API. Zero install friction, one
6262deployment serves all users, and OAuth flows work properly because the server
6363can handle redirects and token storage. The reference skill includes scaffolds
6464for Cloudflare Workers and portable Express/FastMCP setups.

66**[MCP apps](/extensions/apps/overview.md)** extend a server with interactive
6767widgets rendered in chat, such as searchable pickers, charts, and live
6868dashboards. The skill hands off to `build-mcp-app` when plain text output
6969doesn't fit.
