New Scripts:
- demo-http-api.js: Simple demo showing HTTP server is accessible TODAY
- test-http-mcp.js: Full MCP protocol test over HTTP/SSE
- npm run test:http: Run HTTP/SSE MCP protocol tests
Purpose:
Demonstrates that while major AI tools don't support HTTP/SSE MCP yet,
the deployed server IS accessible and usable right now for:
- Custom integrations (web apps, bots, extensions)
- Testing the MCP protocol over HTTP
- Future-proofing for when tools add support
Usage:
node demo-http-api.js # Quick demo (works now)
npm run test:http # Full MCP protocol test
Dev Dependencies Added:
- eventsource: For SSE client connections
- node-fetch: For HTTP requests
Shows Real Value:
- Server is deployed and working at hpr-knowledge-base.onrender.com
- Can be integrated into custom apps TODAY
- Ready for future MCP client adoption
- Not just waiting for tool support
This addresses the question: "Did I build something nothing supports?"
Answer: No! It's accessible now for custom code, and ready for the future.

New Features:
- HTTP/SSE server (server-http.js) for network access
- Express-based web server with MCP SSE transport
- Rate limiting (50 req/min per IP)
- Request timeouts (30s)
- Concurrent request limiting (max 10)
- Circuit breaker pattern for failure handling
- Memory monitoring (450MB threshold)
- Gzip compression for responses
- CORS support for cross-origin requests
- Health check endpoint (/health)
Infrastructure:
- Updated package.json with new dependencies (express, cors, compression, rate-limit)
- New npm script: start:http for HTTP server
- Comprehensive deployment guide (DEPLOYMENT.md)
- Updated README with deployment instructions
Graceful Degradation:
- Automatically rejects requests when at capacity
- Circuit breaker opens after 5 failures
- Memory-aware request handling
- Per-IP rate limiting to prevent abuse
The original stdio server (index.js) remains unchanged for local use.
