feat: Add MCP server icon support (SEP-973) v2.20.0 (#333)

* feat: Add MCP server icon support (SEP-973) v2.20.0

Implements custom server icons for MCP clients according to the MCP
specification SEP-973. Icons enable better visual identification of
the n8n-mcp server in MCP client interfaces.

Features:
- Added 3 icon sizes: 192x192, 128x128, 48x48 (PNG format)
- Icons served from https://www.n8n-mcp.com/logo*.png
- Added websiteUrl field pointing to https://n8n-mcp.com
- Server version now uses package.json (PROJECT_VERSION) instead of hardcoded '1.0.0'

Changes:
- Upgraded @modelcontextprotocol/sdk from ^1.13.2 to ^1.20.1
- Updated src/mcp/server.ts with icon configuration
- Bumped version to 2.20.0
- Updated CHANGELOG.md with release notes

Testing:
- All icon URLs verified accessible (HTTP 200, CORS enabled)
- Build passes, type checking passes
- No breaking changes, fully backward compatible

Icons won't display in Claude Desktop yet (pending upstream UI support),
but will appear automatically when support is added. Other MCP clients
may already support icon display.

* docs: Fix icon URLs in CHANGELOG to reflect actual implementation

The CHANGELOG incorrectly documented icon URLs as
https://api.n8n-mcp.com/public/logo-*.png when the actual
implementation uses https://www.n8n-mcp.com/logo*.png

This updates the documentation to match the code.

+# Library Usage Guide - Multi-Tenant / Hosted Deployments
+
+This guide covers using n8n-mcp as a library dependency for building multi-tenant hosted services.
+
+## Overview
+
+n8n-mcp can be used as a Node.js library to build multi-tenant backends that provide MCP services to multiple users or instances. The package exports all necessary components for integration into your existing services.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+npm install n8n-mcp
+```
+
+## Core Concepts
+
+### Library Mode vs CLI Mode
+
+- **CLI Mode** (default): Single-player usage via `npx n8n-mcp` or Docker
+- **Library Mode**: Multi-tenant usage by importing and using the `N8NMCPEngine` class
+
+### Instance Context
+
+The `InstanceContext` type allows you to pass per-request configuration to the MCP engine:
+
+```typescript
+interface InstanceContext {
+  // Instance-specific n8n API configuration
+  n8nApiUrl?: string;
+  n8nApiKey?: string;
+  n8nApiTimeout?: number;
+  n8nApiMaxRetries?: number;
+
+  // Instance identification
+  instanceId?: string;
+  sessionId?: string;
+
+  // Extensible metadata
+  metadata?: Record<string, any>;
+}
+```
+
+## Basic Example
+
+```typescript
+import express from 'express';
+import { N8NMCPEngine } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+const app = express();
+const mcpEngine = new N8NMCPEngine({
+  sessionTimeout: 3600000, // 1 hour
+  logLevel: 'info'
+});
+
+// Handle MCP requests with per-user context
+app.post('/mcp', async (req, res) => {
+  const instanceContext = {
+    n8nApiUrl: req.user.n8nUrl,
+    n8nApiKey: req.user.n8nApiKey,
+    instanceId: req.user.id
+  };
+
+  await mcpEngine.processRequest(req, res, instanceContext);
+});
+
+app.listen(3000);
+```
+
+## Multi-Tenant Backend Example
+
+This example shows a complete multi-tenant implementation with user authentication and instance management:
+
+```typescript
+import express from 'express';
+import { N8NMCPEngine, InstanceContext, validateInstanceContext } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+const app = express();
+const mcpEngine = new N8NMCPEngine({
+  sessionTimeout: 3600000, // 1 hour
+  logLevel: 'info'
+});
+
+// Start MCP engine
+await mcpEngine.start();
+
+// Authentication middleware
+const authenticate = async (req, res, next) => {
+  const token = req.headers.authorization?.replace('Bearer ', '');
+  if (!token) {
+    return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Unauthorized' });
+  }
+
+  // Verify token and attach user to request
+  req.user = await getUserFromToken(token);
+  next();
+};
+
+// Get instance configuration from database
+const getInstanceConfig = async (instanceId: string, userId: string) => {
+  // Your database logic here
+  const instance = await db.instances.findOne({
+    where: { id: instanceId, userId }
+  });
+
+  if (!instance) {
+    throw new Error('Instance not found');
+  }
+
+  return {
+    n8nApiUrl: instance.n8nUrl,
+    n8nApiKey: await decryptApiKey(instance.encryptedApiKey),
+    instanceId: instance.id
+  };
+};
+
+// MCP endpoint with per-instance context
+app.post('/api/instances/:instanceId/mcp', authenticate, async (req, res) => {
+  try {
+    // Get instance configuration
+    const instance = await getInstanceConfig(req.params.instanceId, req.user.id);
+
+    // Create instance context
+    const context: InstanceContext = {
+      n8nApiUrl: instance.n8nApiUrl,
+      n8nApiKey: instance.n8nApiKey,
+      instanceId: instance.instanceId,
+      metadata: {
+        userId: req.user.id,
+        userAgent: req.headers['user-agent'],
+        ip: req.ip
+      }
+    };
+
+    // Validate context before processing
+    const validation = validateInstanceContext(context);
+    if (!validation.valid) {
+      return res.status(400).json({
+        error: 'Invalid instance configuration',
+        details: validation.errors
+      });
+    }
+
+    // Process request with instance context
+    await mcpEngine.processRequest(req, res, context);
+
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.error('MCP request error:', error);
+    res.status(500).json({ error: 'Internal server error' });
+  }
+});
+
+// Health endpoint
+app.get('/health', async (req, res) => {
+  const health = await mcpEngine.healthCheck();
+  res.status(health.status === 'healthy' ? 200 : 503).json(health);
+});
+
+// Graceful shutdown
+process.on('SIGTERM', async () => {
+  await mcpEngine.shutdown();
+  process.exit(0);
+});
+
+app.listen(3000);
+```
+
+## API Reference
+
+### N8NMCPEngine
+
+#### Constructor
+
+```typescript
+new N8NMCPEngine(options?: {
+  sessionTimeout?: number;  // Session TTL in ms (default: 1800000 = 30min)
+  logLevel?: 'error' | 'warn' | 'info' | 'debug';  // Default: 'info'
+})
+```
+
+#### Methods
+
+##### `async processRequest(req, res, context?)`
+
+Process a single MCP request with optional instance context.
+
+**Parameters:**
+- `req`: Express request object
+- `res`: Express response object
+- `context` (optional): InstanceContext with per-instance configuration
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+const context: InstanceContext = {
+  n8nApiUrl: 'https://instance1.n8n.cloud',
+  n8nApiKey: 'instance1-key',
+  instanceId: 'tenant-123'
+};
+
+await engine.processRequest(req, res, context);
+```
+
+##### `async healthCheck()`
+
+Get engine health status for monitoring.
+
+**Returns:** `EngineHealth`
+```typescript
+{
+  status: 'healthy' | 'unhealthy';
+  uptime: number;  // seconds
+  sessionActive: boolean;
+  memoryUsage: {
+    used: number;
+    total: number;
+    unit: string;
+  };
+  version: string;
+}
+```
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+app.get('/health', async (req, res) => {
+  const health = await engine.healthCheck();
+  res.status(health.status === 'healthy' ? 200 : 503).json(health);
+});
+```
+
+##### `getSessionInfo()`
+
+Get current session information for debugging.
+
+**Returns:**
+```typescript
+{
+  active: boolean;
+  sessionId?: string;
+  age?: number;  // milliseconds
+  sessions?: {
+    total: number;
+    active: number;
+    expired: number;
+    max: number;
+    sessionIds: string[];
+  };
+}
+```
+
+##### `async start()`
+
+Start the engine (for standalone mode). Not needed when using `processRequest()` directly.
+
+##### `async shutdown()`
+
+Graceful shutdown for service lifecycle management.
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+process.on('SIGTERM', async () => {
+  await engine.shutdown();
+  process.exit(0);
+});
+```
+
+### Types
+
+#### InstanceContext
+
+Configuration for a specific user instance:
+
+```typescript
+interface InstanceContext {
+  n8nApiUrl?: string;
+  n8nApiKey?: string;
+  n8nApiTimeout?: number;
+  n8nApiMaxRetries?: number;
+  instanceId?: string;
+  sessionId?: string;
+  metadata?: Record<string, any>;
+}
+```
+
+#### Validation Functions
+
+##### `validateInstanceContext(context: InstanceContext)`
+
+Validate and sanitize instance context.
+
+**Returns:**
+```typescript
+{
+  valid: boolean;
+  errors?: string[];
+}
+```
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+import { validateInstanceContext } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+const validation = validateInstanceContext(context);
+if (!validation.valid) {
+  console.error('Invalid context:', validation.errors);
+}
+```
+
+##### `isInstanceContext(obj: any)`
+
+Type guard to check if an object is a valid InstanceContext.
+
+**Example:**
+```typescript
+import { isInstanceContext } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+if (isInstanceContext(req.body.context)) {
+  // TypeScript knows this is InstanceContext
+  await engine.processRequest(req, res, req.body.context);
+}
+```
+
+## Session Management
+
+### Session Strategies
+
+The MCP engine supports flexible session ID formats:
+
+- **UUIDv4**: Internal n8n-mcp format (default)
+- **Instance-prefixed**: `instance-{userId}-{hash}-{uuid}` for multi-tenant isolation
+- **Custom formats**: Any non-empty string for mcp-remote and other proxies
+
+Session validation happens via transport lookup, not format validation. This ensures compatibility with all MCP clients.
+
+### Multi-Tenant Configuration
+
+Set these environment variables for multi-tenant mode:
+
+```bash
+# Enable multi-tenant mode
+ENABLE_MULTI_TENANT=true
+
+# Session strategy: "instance" (default) or "shared"
+MULTI_TENANT_SESSION_STRATEGY=instance
+```
+
+**Session Strategies:**
+
+- **instance** (recommended): Each tenant gets isolated sessions
+  - Session ID: `instance-{instanceId}-{configHash}-{uuid}`
+  - Better isolation and security
+  - Easier debugging per tenant
+
+- **shared**: Multiple tenants share sessions with context switching
+  - More efficient for high tenant count
+  - Requires careful context management
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### API Key Management
+
+Always encrypt API keys server-side:
+
+```typescript
+import { createCipheriv, createDecipheriv } from 'crypto';
+
+// Encrypt before storing
+const encryptApiKey = (apiKey: string) => {
+  const cipher = createCipheriv('aes-256-gcm', encryptionKey, iv);
+  return cipher.update(apiKey, 'utf8', 'hex') + cipher.final('hex');
+};
+
+// Decrypt before using
+const decryptApiKey = (encrypted: string) => {
+  const decipher = createDecipheriv('aes-256-gcm', encryptionKey, iv);
+  return decipher.update(encrypted, 'hex', 'utf8') + decipher.final('utf8');
+};
+
+// Use decrypted key in context
+const context: InstanceContext = {
+  n8nApiKey: await decryptApiKey(instance.encryptedApiKey),
+  // ...
+};
+```
+
+### Input Validation
+
+Always validate instance context before processing:
+
+```typescript
+import { validateInstanceContext } from 'n8n-mcp';
+
+const validation = validateInstanceContext(context);
+if (!validation.valid) {
+  throw new Error(`Invalid context: ${validation.errors?.join(', ')}`);
+}
+```
+
+### Rate Limiting
+
+Implement rate limiting per tenant:
+
+```typescript
+import rateLimit from 'express-rate-limit';
+
+const limiter = rateLimit({
+  windowMs: 15 * 60 * 1000, // 15 minutes
+  max: 100, // limit each IP to 100 requests per windowMs
+  keyGenerator: (req) => req.user?.id || req.ip
+});
+
+app.post('/api/instances/:instanceId/mcp', authenticate, limiter, async (req, res) => {
+  // ...
+});
+```
+
+## Error Handling
+
+Always wrap MCP requests in try-catch blocks:
+
+```typescript
+app.post('/api/instances/:instanceId/mcp', authenticate, async (req, res) => {
+  try {
+    const context = await getInstanceConfig(req.params.instanceId, req.user.id);
+    await mcpEngine.processRequest(req, res, context);
+  } catch (error) {
+    console.error('MCP error:', error);
+
+    // Don't leak internal errors to clients
+    if (error.message.includes('not found')) {
+      return res.status(404).json({ error: 'Instance not found' });
+    }
+
+    res.status(500).json({ error: 'Internal server error' });
+  }
+});
+```
+
+## Monitoring
+
+### Health Checks
+
+Set up periodic health checks:
+
+```typescript
+setInterval(async () => {
+  const health = await mcpEngine.healthCheck();
+
+  if (health.status === 'unhealthy') {
+    console.error('MCP engine unhealthy:', health);
+    // Alert your monitoring system
+  }
+
+  // Log metrics
+  console.log('MCP engine metrics:', {
+    uptime: health.uptime,
+    memory: health.memoryUsage,
+    sessionActive: health.sessionActive
+  });
+}, 60000); // Every minute
+```
+
+### Session Monitoring
+
+Track active sessions:
+
+```typescript
+app.get('/admin/sessions', authenticate, async (req, res) => {
+  if (!req.user.isAdmin) {
+    return res.status(403).json({ error: 'Forbidden' });
+  }
+
+  const sessionInfo = mcpEngine.getSessionInfo();
+  res.json(sessionInfo);
+});
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+### Unit Testing
+
+```typescript

+
+1. **Keep backward compatibility** - Use environment fallback:
+```typescript
+const context: InstanceContext = {
+  n8nApiUrl: instanceUrl || process.env.N8N_API_URL,
+  n8nApiKey: instanceKey || process.env.N8N_API_KEY,
+  instanceId: instanceId || 'default'
+};
+```
+
+2. **Gradual rollout** - Start with a feature flag:
+```typescript
+const isMultiTenant = process.env.ENABLE_MULTI_TENANT === 'true';
+
+if (isMultiTenant) {
+  const context = await getInstanceConfig(req.params.instanceId);
+  await engine.processRequest(req, res, context);
+} else {
+  // Legacy single-player mode
+  await engine.processRequest(req, res);
+}
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+#### Module Resolution Errors
+
+If you see `Cannot find module 'n8n-mcp'`:
+
+```bash
+# Clear node_modules and reinstall
+rm -rf node_modules package-lock.json
+npm install
+
+# Verify package has types field
+npm info n8n-mcp
+
+# Check TypeScript can resolve it
+npx tsc --noEmit
+```
+
+#### Session ID Validation Errors
+
+If you see `Invalid session ID format` errors:
+
+- Ensure you're using n8n-mcp v2.18.9 or later
+- Session IDs can be any non-empty string
+- No need to generate UUIDs - use your own format
+
+#### Memory Leaks
+
+If memory usage grows over time:
+
+```typescript
+// Ensure proper cleanup
+process.on('SIGTERM', async () => {
+  await engine.shutdown();
+  process.exit(0);
+});
+
+// Monitor session count
+const sessionInfo = engine.getSessionInfo();
+console.log('Active sessions:', sessionInfo.sessions?.active);
+```
