This adds (experimantal) support to add arbitrary MCP server from
Github.
```python
sbx = await AsyncSandbox.beta_create(timeout=600, mcp={
"github/modelcontextprotocol/servers": {
"install_cmd": "npm install",
"run_cmd": "sudo npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem /root",
},
})
```
or in TS with better typing:
```typescript
const sandbox = await Sandbox.betaCreate({
mcp: {
duckduckgo: {},
'github/modelcontextprotocol/servers': {
installCmd: 'npm install',
runCmd: `sudo npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem /root`,
},
},
timeoutMs: 600_000,
});
```

---
> [!NOTE]
> Adds beta support to launch custom MCP servers (including
GitHub-defined ones) and updates MCP schemas/types; also switches
default MCP template to `mcp-gateway`.
>
> - **SDK (JS & Python)**:
> - Add beta support for `mcp` config, including dynamic GitHub-based
servers with custom `runCmd/installCmd/envs` and automatic `mcp-gateway`
startup with token.
> - Send `UNSET`/omit when `mcp` not provided to avoid API noise.
> - Change default MCP template from `mcp-gateway-v0-2` to
`mcp-gateway`.
> - **Types/Schema**:
> - Extend `McpServer` typings (JS `mcp.d.ts`, Python type hints) to
include many servers and descriptive metadata.
> - Introduce GitHub MCP types (TS `GitHubMcpServer`, Python
`GitHubMcpServerConfig`) and export in SDK surfaces.
> - Regenerate and enrich `spec/mcp-server.json` with
titles/descriptions and new server entries.
