What problem does it solve?
Provide a complete development guide and checklist for building MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers so that LLM-based agents can reliably interact with external APIs and services through well-designed, discoverable tools.
Core Features & Use Cases
- End-to-end design workflow: Research, plan, implement, test, and evaluate MCP servers across four phases to ensure production quality.
- Language and transport guidance: Patterns and examples for Python (FastMCP) and Node/TypeScript (MCP SDK), with recommendations for stdio and streamable HTTP transports.
- Tool design and validation: Tool naming conventions, input/output schema best practices (Pydantic/Zod), annotations, pagination, error handling, and structured outputs for agent consumption.
- Testing and evaluation: An evaluation harness and guidelines to create stable, verifiable, read-only evaluation tasks and measure agent performance.
Quick Start
Generate a TypeScript MCP server scaffold that registers tools with Zod input schemas, returns structuredContent, and exposes a streamable HTTP transport.
