Discussion Topic

Is there a way to localize the prompts/list response? While the text field doesn't necessarily need to be localizable, I believe the name and description fields should support localization.

Currently, when implementing MCP servers that serve users in different languages, we're limited to providing prompts in a single language. Having localization support for at least the prompt names and descriptions would greatly improve the user experience for non-English speaking users.

Additionally, I've encountered an issue where Japanese text in the text field appears garbled in Claude Desktop. Is there a known workaround for this encoding issue?

Has anyone found workarounds for either of these issues, or are there plans to add official localization support and fix the text encoding problems in the MCP specification?
