Created a new PR here since I accidentally pushed a bunch of whitespace changes here that were a nightmare to revert. #1482 |

I was originally going to post a personal blog and make some tweaks to docs related to Server Instructions, but thought it could be better to add an official blog post as a followup from the Prompts post.
Some of this could go into other parts of the documentation instead. Sharing what I have so far here to get feedback and suggestions.
Motivation and Context
More clients are starting to add support for this feature, and it relates to a lot of use cases I've seen discussed. A few of them are here, but its not totally exhaustive.
How Has This Been Tested?
Here is the related GitHub server PR with more details on testing: github/github-mcp-server#1091

Additional context
VSCode is going to release this feature soon, so @dend maybe something like this could be coordinated for when that release happens? (I believe its only in Insiders so far?)
