fhir-mcp-server-medagentbench

A Python-based MCP (MedAgentBench Communications Protocol) server designed for the MedAgentBench environment. This server simulates interactions with a FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) API.

Instead of making actual HTTP requests to a FHIR server, it intercepts MCP requests for FHIR operations and returns a textual representation of the HTTP request that would have been made (e.g., GET https://fhir.example.com/Patient/123 or POST https://fhir.example.com/Observation\n{...}). This allows testing MedAgentBench agents without needing a live FHIR endpoint.

Features

• Implements MCP handlers:
  • list_resources: Lists available simulated resources (currently CapabilityStatement).
  • read_resource: Simulates reading a FHIR resource by its URI.
  • list_tools: Lists available FHIR simulation tools.
  • call_tool: Simulates executing FHIR operations:
    • search_fhir: Simulates searching for FHIR resources.
    • read_fhir: Simulates reading a specific FHIR resource by URI.
    • create_fhir_resource: Simulates creating a new FHIR resource.
• Uses mcp-server library for MCP communication.
• Configured and packaged using Poetry.
• Includes asynchronous unit tests with pytest and pytest-asyncio.

Installation

Ensure you have Python >= 3.10 and Poetry installed.

poetry install

Configuration

Before running the server, you must set the FHIR_BASE_URL environment variable. This URL is used to construct the simulated request strings.

export FHIR_BASE_URL="https://your-fhir-server-base.com/fhir"
# Or for local testing:
# export FHIR_BASE_URL="http://localhost:8080/fhir"

Usage

Once configured, run the server using the installed script:

fhir-mcp-server-medagentbench

The server will start listening for MCP requests over standard input/output.

Development

Setup

Clone the repository and install dependencies, including development tools:

git clone https://github.com/MikeHolcomb/mcp-fhir-python-medagentbench.git
cd mcp-fhir-python-medagentbench
poetry install --with dev

Linting and Formatting

This project uses pre-commit to enforce code style (black, isort) and check for issues (flake8, mypy).

# Run all checks on staged files (usually run automatically on commit)
poetry run pre-commit run

# Run all checks on all files
poetry run pre-commit run --all-files

# Or run tools individually
poetry run black .
poetry run isort .
poetry run flake8 src tests
poetry run mypy src

Testing

Tests are located in the tests/ directory and use pytest.

poetry run pytest

# Run with coverage report
poetry run pytest --cov=src

Tests require pytest-asyncio due to the asynchronous nature of the MCP handlers.
