About mcp_rs_test
mcp_rs_test is an MCP server implementation written in Rust for developers learning Rust and the MCP protocol. Its README covers building the project and configuring it in Claude Desktop.
Key features
- 01Rust-based MCP server
- 02Debug and release builds
- 03Claude Desktop configuration example
Use cases
- 01Learning Rust and the MCP protocol
- 02Building and running an MCP server
- 03Configuring it with Claude Desktop
MCP support
It is an MCP server implementation, but the README does not describe specific tools, resources, or prompts exposed to clients.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
We haven’t collected a package or remote endpoint for this server. Follow the instructions in the project README.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMEmcp_rs_test
MCP server implementation in Rust. Project to learn Rust and the MCP protocol at the same time (why not?).
Requirements
- Rust (1.83 or later)
Build
For a debug build:
cargo build
For a release build:
cargo build --release
Installation
To install the server, just add the following lines to your claude_desktop_config.json file:

Comments
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.
