…1.0.0 The MCP server always reported 'dotnet-mcp 1.0.0' regardless of the actual package version because the version was hardcoded in Program.cs. Now reads AssemblyInformationalVersionAttribute set by MinVer from git tags, so the server correctly reports e.g. 'dotnet-mcp 1.1.1'.

Problem
The MCP server always reported
dotnet-mcp 1.0.0in theinitializeresponse regardless of the actual NuGet package version, because the version was hardcoded inProgram.cs:\
Server (dotnet-mcp 1.0.0) method 'initialize' request handler called.
\\
Fix
Read
AssemblyInformationalVersionAttribute(set by MinVer from git tags) at runtime. The server now correctly reports the actual version:\
Server (dotnet-mcp 1.1.1+1324b2da...) method 'initialize' request handler called.
\\
Falls back to
AssemblyName.Versionthen0.0.0if the attribute is unavailable.Testing
All 58 conformance + capabilities tests pass.
