Adds a standalone MCP (Model Context Protocol) server so any MCP-compatible client (VS Code Copilot Chat, Claude Desktop) can render interactive Panel apps directly in the chat via Pyodide. New files: - src/panel_live/mcp.py: FastMCP server with show_panel_live tool - src/panel_live/templates/show.html: MCP App HTML template with ext-apps SDK - tests/test_mcp.py: 7 tests (CLI, tool payload, resource, no-panel-import) - docs/tutorials/getting-started-mcp.md: Getting started tutorial - docs/how-to/mcp-integration.md: Transport options, troubleshooting, security Modified files: - cli.py: Added `mcp` subcommand and `--version` flag - pyproject.toml: Added `[mcp]` optional dependency (fastmcp>=3.0,<4) - pixi.toml: Added mcp feature, environment, and tasks - zensical.toml: Added MCP docs to navigation Also fixes bidirectional sync bug in worker-bridge.js where sliders stopped responding after the first change: added _applyingPythonPatch echo suppression flag and try/catch safety net in _handleIdle patch creation.
