What problem does it solve? Creating a Model Context Protocol server from scratch involves boilerplate, tool design decisions, and client integration steps that are easy to get wrong. This Skill provides ready-made FastMCP templates, a scaffolding script, and a validated CLI workflow so you can go from idea to a tested, installable MCP server without guesswork. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Starter Templates: Three production-shaped templates covering REST API wrappers, read-only SQLite database servers, and text-file processors. - Scaffolding Script: Copy a template and inject your server name in one command with scripts/scaffold_fastmcp.py. - CLI Validation Workflow: Inspect, list, and call tools with the FastMCP CLI before installing into Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, or deploying over HTTP. - Use Case: You need to expose your company's internal REST API to an AI assistant. Scaffold the api_wrapper template, implement two or three typed tools, verify them with fastmcp call, then install the server into Cursor. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to scaffold a new FastMCP server from the api_wrapper template named after your API and verify it with fastmcp inspect.
