MCP Server Guide & Examples

A comprehensive guide and collection of example implementations for building Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. This repository demonstrates how to create MCP servers in multiple languages, with a focus on Python and TypeScript.

🚀 Features

  • Complete Server Examples:

    • Python minimal server with async support
    • TypeScript minimal server with ES modules
    • Both implementations showcase core MCP concepts
  • Core Functionality Examples:

    • Tools (calculate, fetch-json, file I/O)
    • Resources (static and dynamic)
    • Prompts and templates
    • Logging and error handling
  • Security & Best Practices:

    • Sandboxed file operations
    • Error handling patterns
    • Logging strategies
    • Type safety (TypeScript/Pydantic)

📚 Documentation

🛠️ Quick Start

  1. Choose your preferred implementation:

    # Python
    cd examples/python-minimal
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    python server.py
    
    # TypeScript
    cd examples/typescript-minimal
    npm install
    npm run build
    npm start
    
  2. Connect using the MCP CLI:

    mcp-cli connect
    

📋 Prerequisites

  • Python 3.8+ (for Python example)
  • Node.js 16+ (for TypeScript example)
  • MCP CLI tool (npm install -g @modelcontextprotocol/cli)

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
