Research direction
Start in GithubClient.java at lines 103 and 64, where the Azure MCP release lookup and retry handling are shown in the stack trace. Inspect the response received for the latest release and the GithubRelease deserialization path. Done means Azure MCP Server initialization no longer raises the reported MismatchedInputException.
