perf: lazy MCP SDK, incremental backend builds

↗ view on GitHub · Eli Ziff · 2026-07-27 · b7c05711

The MCP SDK cost ~270ms of require time on every server boot even with
zero connectors configured. Load it on first connector use instead:
type-only imports stay, the Client/transport pair loads inside
withMcpClient, and the OAuth 'auth' entry point loads behind a tiny
wrapper at its two call sites. Eager module graph drops 674 -> 472
modules; boot 764ms -> 581ms.

tsconfig gains 'incremental': full backend build 8.3s cold -> 4.4s warm.
