mcp>=1.0.0 unpinned causes crash with mcp 2.0.0 (AttributeError: 'Server' object has no attribute 'list_tools') #16

Bug report

finmind-mcp fails to start when installed via both uvx finmind-mcp and pipx install finmind-mcp, because pyproject.toml declares mcp>=1.0.0 with no upper bound. The mcp SDK just released a breaking major version 2.0.0 (removed the old @app.list_tools() / @app.call_tool() decorator API on Server), so pip/uv resolve to mcp==2.0.0, and finmind_mcp/server.py (written against the 1.x API) crashes at import time:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".../bin/finmind-mcp", line 3, in <module>
    from finmind_mcp.server import main
  File ".../site-packages/finmind_mcp/server.py", line 28, in <module>
    @app.list_tools()
AttributeError: 'Server' object has no attribute 'list_tools'

Repro

pip install finmind-mcp   # or uvx finmind-mcp / pipx install finmind-mcp
finmind-mcp

Installs mcp==2.0.0 and crashes as above.

Fix confirmed

Pinning mcp<2.0.0 (tested with mcp==1.29.0) resolves the issue — finmind_mcp.server imports cleanly.

Suggested fix

Pin the dependency in pyproject.toml, e.g. mcp>=1.0.0,<2.0.0, or update server.py to the new mcp 2.0 Server API.

Environment

• finmind-mcp: 0.0.5 (latest on PyPI as of 2026-08-01)
• mcp: 2.0.0 (also reproduced fix with 1.29.0)
• Python: 3.10
• Install methods tried: pip install, uvx finmind-mcp, pipx install finmind-mcp — all affected
