VS Code MCP gallery still installs 0.0.1a4 despite initialization fix in 0.0.1a7 #2581

Description

@panoskalf

Related to #2365 and #2447: the initialization crash is fixed in [email protected], but a fresh installation of microsoft/markitdown from the VS Code MCP gallery still creates:

"command": "uvx",
"args": ["[email protected]"]

Reproduction

  1. Install microsoft/markitdown from the VS Code MCP gallery.
  2. Start it through MCP: List Servers.
  3. The server shows an error. The agent-host log reports exit code 1 before initialization:
ListToolsRequest.method
Input should be 'tools/list'
input_value='server/discover'

Removing the configuration and reinstalling produces the same version pin and failure.

Testing 0.0.1a7 with the same server/discover probe returns “Method not found” without crashing, then successfully initializes and lists convert_to_markdown.

Expected

The gallery should install a compatible version rather than the known-broken 0.0.1a4.

Could the gallery metadata be updated? If it is maintained elsewhere, please point me to the correct repository.
