The Custom MCP Server Demo is a Python-based project that demonstrates creating a server using the Model Context Protocol for flexible client-server communication. It is useful for learning about networking, protocol design, and building scalable communication systems.

🧠 Custom MCP Server Demo

This project is a Custom MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server built using Python, It’s designed to demonstrate how to create a custom server that communicates using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — a simple, custom-designed protocol useful for building flexible communication systems between clients and servers.

📌 What is this project about?

This project helps you understand how to:

  • Build a custom server using Python's socket library

  • Implement a custom protocol (MCP) to handle communication between clients and the server

  • Manage client connections and message handling in a structured way

  • Send and receive custom commands and data with context-aware processing

It is a learning base for creating more complex client-server systems, such as multiplayer games, chat applications, or custom networked tools.

🚀 Features

  • 🌐 TCP-based custom server built in Python

  • 🔄 Model Context Protocol: structured message handling

  • 📡 Real-time communication between client and server

  • 🧩 Easy to extend with new message types or functionalities

  • 🧪 Great for learning networking, protocol design, and server architecture

🔧 Requirements

  • Python 3.8+

  • Basic understanding of networking (sockets, TCP)

  • No external dependencies required

🛠 How to Run

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/Eltaf-azizi/Custom-MCP-Server-Demo.git
cd custom-mcp-server

  2. Run the server:

    python server.py

💡 How the Protocol Works (MCP)

The Model Context Protocol is a custom-defined protocol where each message includes:

  1. A model: What kind of data is being sent (e.g., "chat", "move", "state")

  2. A context: Additional metadata to help interpret the model

  3. The data: The actual payload/message

Example message structure (as JSON over TCP):

{
     "model": "chat",
     "context": "user",
     "data": "Hello, world!"
}

The server parses these messages and responds accordingly, making it easy to handle multiple types of client interactions in a clean and scalable way.
