[Bug]: Can't register Github MCP Server in the MCP Registry

[shams858]

🐞 Bug Summary

Tool validation fails when registering GitHub MCP Server due to overly strict description validation that rejects legitimate words. As a result, the entire Gateway Registration fails.

🧩 Affected Component

Select the area of the project impacted:

• mcpgateway - API
• mcpgateway - UI (admin panel)

---

🔁 Steps to Reproduce

1. Set up MCP Context Forge Gateway locally with authentication and Admin UI enabled
2. Attempt to register GitHub MCP Server using the Admin UI or API:
   url: https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/
   transport: STREAMABLEHTTP
   auth_type: bearer
   auth_token: GitHub Personal access Token
3. Gateway successfully connects to the MCP server but fails during tool validation phase
4. Registration fails with HTTP 502 Bad Gateway error

---

🤔 Expected Behavior

The gateway should successfully register the GitHub MCP Server and import all valid tools, allowing legitimate words in tool descriptions.

🧠 Environment Info

You can retrieve most of this from the /version endpoint.

Version or commit: main branch
Runtime: Python 3.12, Uvicorn dev server
Platform / OS: Linux
Container: none

🧩 Additional Context (optional)

Workaround: Temporarily modify the validation to skip tools with validation errors rather than failing the entire gateway registration.

Whilst registering a streamablehttp gateway, the registration is failing. Looks like an issue with validation of url.
PR#662 is likely fixing this issue.
