Sep 1, 2025September 2025 monthly summary for bytedance/UI-TARS-desktop focusing on MCP integration reliability and registry adoption. Delivered two key changes that enhance MCP interoperability, stability, and project hygiene across the affected repository set: - Official MCP Registry Support in mcp-servers introduced, enabling use of the official registry for MCP-related operations. Updated changelogs across packages and added a new token file to .gitignore to reflect the change. - MCP Browser Server Logging Capability Fix corrected a mismatch where the MCP browser server declared a logging capability but lacked an implementation for logging/setLevel; updated the MCPServer constructor to remove the unused {} capability and ensure alignment with implemented capabilities; changelogs across affected packages updated to reflect the fix. These changes improve reliability, reduce runtime risk, and position the project for smoother MCP registry adoption.
