The MCP Quick Start Server is a basic implementation of a Model Context Protocol server using TypeScript, demonstrating how to define tools and resources for AI interactions. It features tools for arithmetic and humor retrieval and provides a development guide for building and running the server efficiently.

MCP Quick Start Server

This project is a simple example of a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server using TypeScript and the @modelcontextprotocol/sdk. It showcases the definition of basic tools, resources, and prompts.

Features

  • Tool: add: Adds two numbers.
  • Tool: fetch-chuck-jokes: Fetches a random Chuck Norris joke.
  • Resource: greeting: Provides a personalized greeting.
  • Prompt: getGreetingAndJoke: Guides an AI client to greet a user and tell a Chuck Norris joke.

Prerequisites

  • Node.js (v18.x or later recommended)
  • npm

Setup & Installation

  • Clone the repository, install dependencies, build, and run the server.

Development Workflow

  • Use npm run dev for live-reload experience during development.

How It Works

  • The server initializes an McpServer instance and connects StdioServerTransport for communication. Tools, resources, and prompts are defined for interaction with MCP clients.

Further Development

  • Suggestions include adding complex tools, interacting with databases, and exploring new transport layers.
