config.py evaluates os.environ at import time, but mckicad/__init__.py
eagerly imports config via 'from .config import *'. The old main.py
loaded .env after importing from mckicad, so the search paths were
always empty. Now .env is parsed with stdlib before any mckicad imports.
Also fix start.sh to use 'uv run' instead of stale venv/ path.
- Update imports from 'mcp.server.fastmcp' to 'fastmcp' per FastMCP 2.0 migration
- Add pyproject.toml for modern Python packaging with hatchling build backend
- Implement missing server lifecycle functions: main(), setup_logging(), cleanup_handler()
- Add async main() entry point for proper server execution
- Update main.py to use async server execution pattern
- Add fastmcp>=0.1.0 dependency to replace legacy mcp server imports
This establishes the foundation for all subsequent feature additions and ensures
compatibility with modern MCP clients and development workflows.
