Now let's install and test the MCP server:

● Bash(cd markdown-todo-mcp/markdown-todo-mcp && pip install -e .)
  ⎿  Error: ERROR: Exception:

● Let me check the pyproject.toml file to fix the syntax error:

  ⎿  Read 16 lines (ctrl+r to expand)

● I see the issue - the description field in pyproject.toml has a newline
  character. Let me fix it:

● Update(markdown-todo-mcp/markdown-todo-mcp/pyproject.toml)

● Great! Now let's test the server by running it:

● Bash(cd markdown-todo-mcp/markdown-todo-mcp && python server.py)
  ⎿  Error: (eval):cd:1: no such file or directory:

   to verify the functionality:
