From the README

# MCP Bundles (MCPB)

> **⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: This project is being renamed from DXT (Desktop Extensions) to MCPB (MCP Bundles)**
>
> If you're looking for the DXT tools, they have been renamed to MCPB. Please update your dependencies and tooling:
>
> - `dxt` CLI is now `mcpb`
> - `.dxt` files are now `.mcpb` files
> - `@anthropic-ai/dxt` package will be moved to `@anthropic-ai/mcpb`

MCP Bundles (`.mcpb`) are zip archives containing a local MCP server and a `manifest.json` that describes the server and its capabilities. The format is spiritually similar to Chrome extensions (`.crx`) or VS Code extensions (`.vsix`), enabling end users to install local MCP servers with a single click.

This repository provides three components: The bundle specification in [MANIFEST.md](MANIFEST.md), a CLI tool for creating bundles (see [CLI.md](CLI.md)), and the code used by Claude for macOS and Windows to load and verify MCPB bundles ([src/index.ts](src/index.ts)).
