MCP Server template ships with the .NET SDK

The mcpserver project template, previously available only by installing Microsoft.McpServer.ProjectTemplates, now ships as a bundled template in the .NET SDK:

dotnet new mcpserver -o MyMcpServer

Moving the template into ASP.NET Core makes it discoverable from dotnet new list without a separate install step, and aligns its servicing with the rest of the web stack.
