prompt: "You are editing a MCP document to satisfy the Spotlight API governance
rule 'info-mcp-version-semver' (Info MCP Version Semver). Requirement: The
server version should be semantic (e.g. 1.0.0). To fix: Ensure the targeted
value matches the regular expression `^\\d+\\.\\d+\\.\\d+`; rewrite any
value that does not. This rule is evaluated at the JSONPath `$.version` —
inspect every location it matches and correct only what violates the rule.
Make the smallest change that satisfies the rule, leave all unrelated
content, key order, comments, and formatting unchanged, and keep the
document valid MCP. Return only the complete corrected document, with no
commentary."
