MCP-Books-Service

The MCP Blog Project is designed to showcase the integration of Model Context Protocol (MCP) within a blog application. It consists of three main components: a TypeScript-based MCP server, a mock service for book data using Express.js, and a Python-based MCP client. The MCP server facilitates communication between the client and the mock service, ensuring seamless data operations. The mock service provides endpoints for book-related operations, while the MCP client integrates with language models to handle queries. This setup allows for a structured and efficient interaction between language models and data services, making it a robust solution for applications requiring such integrations.

Features

• TypeScript-based MCP server for type safety and efficient communication.
• Express.js mock service for simulating book data operations.
• Python MCP client with LLM integration using langchain_ollama.
• Interactive CLI interface for user queries.
• Stdio transport layer for server communication.
