v1.7.0 refreshRoots() clears allowedLocalDirs when host advertises roots capability but returns empty list — wipes CLI-arg directories

Inizia in dist/server.js, in refreshRoots(), e traccia come viene popolato allowedLocalDirs a partire da roots e dagli argomenti CLI in dist/index.js intorno alle righe 34372 e 34376. Esegui la riproduzione su Windows con un positional directory, quindi chiama list_pdfs e display_pdf; il lavoro è completato quando la directory CLI rimane in allowedDirectories dopo l’inizializzazione e i file locali possono essere aperti.

Version: 1.7.0 (pdf-server-mcp via Claude Desktop extension manager)
OS: Windows 11 / Claude Desktop 1.4758.0
Severity: Functional regression — local PDFs cannot be opened via display_pdf

What happens

list_pdfs returns:

{"localFiles": [], "allowedDirectories": [], "truncated": false}
Even when:

Directories are passed as positional args via the manifest's mcp_config.args
(which parseArgs() should register at line ~34372 in dist/index.js)
A cowork directory mount has been approved by the user
display_pdf against any local file path is rejected with "Local file not in allowed list".

Root cause
In dist/server.js refreshRoots():

async function refreshRoots(server) {
  if (!server.getClientCapabilities()?.roots)
    return;
  try {
    const { roots } = await server.listRoots();
    allowedLocalDirs.clear();   // <-- this line
    for (const root of roots) { ... }
  }
}
When --stdio mode runs, useClientRoots: true is hardcoded, so
refreshRoots() always fires on init via oninitialized. Claude Desktop
1.4758.0 advertises the roots capability but server.listRoots() returns
an empty array (cowork mounts not propagating as MCP roots). The
unconditional clear() then wipes any directories registered via CLI args
in main() lines 34372/34376.

Reproduction
Install pdf-server-mcp 1.7.0 in Claude Desktop on Windows.
In manifest.json (or via a launch wrapper) add positional directory
paths to mcp_config.args after --stdio, e.g.
["${__dirname}/dist/index.js", "--stdio", "C:\\some\\dir"].
Restart Claude Desktop.
Call list_pdfs. Expected: allowedDirectories includes C:\some\dir.
Actual: allowedDirectories: [].
Suggested fix
In refreshRoots(), either (a) only clear when the new roots list is
non-empty, or (b) drop the clear entirely and rely on Set.add()'s dedup
behavior. Option (b) is safer because cowork-side root removals would
still need a separate mechanism (e.g., a roots/list_changed notification
that explicitly signals removal, not the current implicit
clear-and-replace).

Workaround applied locally
Commented out the allowedLocalDirs.clear() line. CLI-arg directories
now survive the refresh and display_pdf works on local paths again.
This loses the ability for the host to revoke a previously-granted root
via the empty-list path, but in practice cowork mounts are additive in
our usage pattern.
