[fiori-mcp-server] DXT extension crashes silently in Claude Desktop after initialize (Electron-bundled Node incompatibility)
Summary
When @sap-ux/fiori-mcp-server is installed as a Claude Desktop .dxt extension, the server process is spawned by Claude Desktop's built-in (Electron-embedded) Node runtime. The server starts, accepts the JSON-RPC initialize message, then exits silently ~300–700 ms later with no stderr output. Claude Desktop logs only:
Server transport closed unexpectedly, this is likely due to the process exiting early.

Current State
In packages/fiori-mcp-server/src/tools/index.ts, the tools are defined without annotations:

BUG - fiori-mcp download_odata_service_metadata: clarify appPath pre-condition to prevent LLMs from passing a non-existent folder
Related Feature
Feature request: N/A — this is a bug report on the existing download_odata_service_metadata tool exposed by @sap-ux/fiori-mcp-server.

[fiori-mcp-server] CLI help/version flags print no output
Summary
The published @sap-ux/fiori-mcp-server binary silently ignores top-level CLI information flags.
fiori-mcp --help, fiori-mcp --version, and an invalid flag all exit with status 0 and print no stdout/stderr. This makes it hard for users and MCP client setup scripts to verify the installed version, discover usage, or detect a typo before configuring the server.
Reproduction
Tested on Windows with Node.js 24.16.0 and @sap-ux/fiori-mcp-server@1.0.3.

### FEATURE - Wrap `fetch-service-metadata` errors in the structured response shape
`generate-fiori-ui-application`'s handler wraps its body in try/catch and returns a structured `status: "Error"`. `fetch-service-metadata` doesn't, so any inner throw (typically a missing entry in `@sap-ux/store`) bubbles into the MCP framework's generic error wrapper and the actual message never reaches the caller. Small consistency fix; big DX win for first-time and non-VS-Code users.
### Technical Design
Wrap the `executeFunctionality` body of `fetch-service-metadata` in try/catch and mirro

### BUG - Missing dependency declaration (Fiori MCP Server)
### Description
I tried out the "Fiori MCP Server" and it is really great and cool to use. But I discovered the following issue:
If you add the MCP server to Claude Code via `claude mcp add fiori --transport stdio -- npx -y @sap-ux/fiori-mcp-server@0.6.47 fiori-mcp`, Claude Code is not able to start the MCP server and connect to it.
After some debugging the issue was, that the dependency `apache-arrow` (https://www.npmjs.com/package/apache-arrow) is required on my machine, which is not defined
