Hono is designed for serverless environments like Val Town and Cloudflare Workers. If you're familiar with Express, Flask, or Sinatra, Hono follows similar patterns.\n\n## Routes\n\nThe backend serves three types of content:\n\n### 1. Root Route (`GET /`)\nServes the setup instructions page with the dynamically injected MCP endpoint URL.\n\n### 2. MCP Endpoint (`ALL /mcp`)\nThe Model Context Protocol server endpoint that ChatGPT connects to. This handles:\n- Tool discovery and execution\n- Widget resource serving\n- Streaming HTTP transport for MCP messages\n\n### 3. Widget Assets (`GET /widget-assets/**`)\nServes the React widget files with automatic TypeScript/TSX transpilation. The backend maps requests from `/widget-assets/*` to `/frontend/widgets/*` and uses Val Town's `serveFile` utility to:\n- Read project files across branches and forks\n- Automatically transpile TSX → JS\n- Set correct content-types\n\nExample: `GET /widget-assets/widget.tsx` → serves transpiled JS from `/frontend/widgets/widget.tsx`\n\n## MCP Server\n\nThe MCP server (`backend/mcp/server.ts`) defines:\n\n1. **Widget Resource** - The HTML template that ChatGPT loads in an iframe\n2. **Tools** - Functions that ChatGPT can call (list_messages, add_message, get_message)\n3. **Widget Metadata** - Configuration for widget behavior, CSP, loading states\n\nEach tool returns structured data with a `kind` discriminator that the widget router uses for navigation.\n\n## Serving Widget HTML\n\nThe widget HTML template (`frontend/widgets/index.html`) contains `__VAL_TOWN_URL__` placeholders that get replaced with the actual deployment URL when the widget resource is requested. This ensures widget assets load from the correct domain across forks and branches.\n\n## Error Handling\n\nBy default, Hono swallows errors and returns \"Internal Server Error\". We override this behavior to see full stack traces:\n\n```typescript\napp.onError((err, c) => {\n throw err;\n});\n```\n\nThis makes debugging easier during development. You can customize this for production.\n",[],[347,215],"b361e7ee-a5e5-11f0-8f15-0224a6c84d84","server.ts","0199ce87-fbda-7524-96e6-b20af7dad923","0199ce87-fbda-7524-96e6-b6c1f1ce7b23",["D",1760106642287],"import { McpServer, StreamableHttpTransport } from \"https://esm.sh/mcp-lite@0.8.1\";\nimport { readFile } from \"https://esm.town/v/std/utils/index.ts\";\nimport { z } from \"https://esm.sh/zod@4\";\nimport { getMessages, insertMessage } from \"../database/queries.ts\";\nimport {\n MessageListOutputSchema,\n MessageDetailOutputSchema,\n} from \"../../shared/types.ts\";\n\nconst WIDGET_URI = \"ui://widget/index.html\";\n\n// Store current base URL (set per request)\nlet currentBaseUrl = \"\";\n\nexport function setBaseUrl(url: string) {\n currentBaseUrl = url;\n}\n\nfunction getBaseUrl(): string {\n if (!currentBaseUrl) {\n throw new Error(\"Base URL not set - must call setBaseUrl before handling MCP requests\");\n }\n return currentBaseUrl;\n}\n\nfunction widgetMeta(invoking?: string, invoked?: string) {\n return {\n \"openai/outputTemplate\": WIDGET_URI,\n \"openai/toolInvocation/invoking\": invoking,\n \"openai/toolInvocation/invoked\": invoked,\n \"openai/widgetAccessible\": true,\n \"openai/resultCanProduceWidget\": true,\n } as const;\n}\n\nconst mcp = new McpServer({\n name: \"valtown-message-board\",\n version: \"1.0.0\",\n schemaAdapter: (schema) => z.toJSONSchema(schema as z.ZodType),\n});\n\nasync function loadWidgetHtml(baseUrl: string): Promise {\n let html = await readFile(\"/frontend/widgets/index.html\", import.meta.url);\n html = html.replaceAll(\"__VAL_TOWN_URL__\", baseUrl);\n return html;\n}\n\nmcp.resource(\n WIDGET_URI,\n {\n name: \"Message Board Widget\",\n description: \"Interactive message board widget\",\n mimeType: \"text/html+skybridge\",\n },\n async (uri) => {\n const baseUrl = getBaseUrl();\n const html = await loadWidgetHtml(baseUrl);\n\n return {\n contents: [\n {\n uri: uri.href,\n type: \"text\",\n text: html,\n mimeType: \"text/html+skybridge\",\n _meta: {\n ...widgetMeta(),\n \"openai/widgetCSP\": {\n connect_domains: [baseUrl, \"https://esm.sh\", \"https://cdn.jsdelivr.net\"],\n resource_domains: [baseUrl, \"https://esm.sh\", \"https://cdn.jsdelivr.net\"],\n },\n },\n },\n ],\n };\n },\n);\n\nmcp.tool(\"list_messages\", {\n description: \"List all messages from the message board\",\n inputSchema: z.object({}),\n outputSchema: MessageListOutputSchema,\n _meta: widgetMeta(\"Loading messages...\", \"Messages loaded\"),\n handler: async () => {\n const messages = await getMessages();\n\n return {\n structuredContent: {\n kind: \"message_list\",\n messages,\n },\n content: [\n {\n type: \"text\",\n text: `Found ${messages.length} message${messages.length === 1 ?

Every Val Town account comes with a free SQLite database, hosted on [Turso](https://turso.tech/).\n\n## Structure\n\n* `schema.ts` - Drizzle ORM schema definitions (tables, columns, types)\n* `migrations.ts` - Database table creation logic\n* `queries.ts` - Query functions used by MCP tools\n* `db.ts` - Database connection configuration\n\n## Tables\n\nThe starter includes a `messages` table for storing message board data:\n\n```typescript\nexport const messages = sqliteTable(\"messages\", {\n id: integer(\"id\").primaryKey({ autoIncrement: true }),\n content: text(\"content\").notNull(),\n timestamp: text(\"timestamp\").notNull().default(new Date().toISOString()),\n});\n```\n\n## Migrations\n\nMigrations run automatically on startup via `createTables()` in `migrations.ts`, which is imported in `queries.ts`.\n\nThe migration logic uses `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`, so it's safe to run on every startup. You can comment out the import in `queries.ts` for a slight (30ms) performance improvement on cold starts, but it's left in by default so forks work out of the box.\n\n## Queries\n\nThe `queries.ts` file exports typed functions for database operations:\n\n- `getMessages(limit?)` - Fetch messages with optional limit\n- `insertMessage(content)` - Insert a new message\n\nThese functions are imported and used by MCP tools in `backend/mcp/server.ts`.\n\n## Schema Changes\n\nSQLite has limited support for altering existing tables. When you need to modify a table schema:\n\n1. Create a new table with the updated schema\n2. Copy data from the old table to the new table\n3. Drop the old table\n4. Rename the new table\n\nAlternatively, you can just change the table name (e.g., `messages_v2`) to start fresh.\n\nFor help with database operations, reach out in the [Val Town Discord](https://discord.com/invite/dHv45uN5RY).\n",[],[347,375,215],"b361e50a-a5e5-11f0-8f15-0224a6c84d84",["D",1760106642287],[177,178,179,180,181],[347,375],"b361fe6e-a5e5-11f0-8f15-0224a6c84d84",["D",1760106642287],[176,182,184,185],[347],["D",1760106642287],{"_11":12,"_122":71},{"_11":12,"_118":-5,"_70":71,"_30":69,"_119":120,"_121":24},{"_38":39,"_13":16,"_32":35,"_107":73,"_108":62,"_109":110,"_111":77,"_112":113,"_114":115,"_116":14,"_117":12},"ctx",{"_51":-5,"_143":448,"_449":450,"_451":452,"_453":24,"_454":24,"_455":24,"_456":84,"_457":-5,"_458":-7,"_459":-7,"_460":26,"_461":24,"_462":24,"_463":-5,"_464":24,"_465":24,"_466":24,"_467":-5},"ENV",{"_419":420,"_421":422,"_423":16,"_424":425,"_426":427,"_428":429,"_430":431,"_432":433,"_434":435,"_436":437,"_438":439,"_440":441,"_442":443,"_444":445,"_446":447},"REACT_APP_SENTRY_DSN","https://586020d86f05489db63a554690acf1e9@o1398359.ingest.sentry.io/6724499","RENDER_GIT_COMMIT","fdb67791413f4386b4dbf18f354029a617f6160f","RENDER_GIT_BRANCH","POSTHOG_API_TOKEN","phc_nmoyuAkStEZuUp69rYlg1DZgrIt19Gx0Y4Hwf8tGgJP","POSTHOG_API_HOST","https://wart.val.town","WEB_API_TEMPLATE","https://{val}.web.val.run","APP_URL","https://www.val.town","MODULE_URL","https://esm.town","VANITY_WEB_API_TEMPLATE","https://{label}.val.run/","DENOLS_URL","https://lsp.val.town","NODE_ENV","production","CLOUDFLARE_TURNSTILE_SITE_KEY","0x4AAAAAACtaIZJH7s9rBMZ6","GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID","875989696899-jtsqkhlbdv5jrlsk8631p7ipjg3c6o62.apps.googleusercontent.com","STRIPE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY","pk_live_51N2zvWEpZTTLipIkVEwXrUG9AT0yeOOEYxszarZT1jpsZV58Ly6wlg3SltZpHN26CUalOBmUSY7adQRQiSkCZz2500qSXNkf8Y","API_URL","https://api.val.town",[],"preferencesKeybindings","default","preferencesTheme","light","preferencesFixers","preferencesCopilot","preferencesSelectionAi","preferencesCloseBrackets","preferencesChatPanelState","preferencesDprint","preferencesDenofmt","notificationCount","flagDenols","isBusinessOrgMember","businessOrgHandle","isBusinessOrgAdmin","isHigherTownieTier","navCollapsed","currentOrgId"]
