What problem does it solve?
This skill provides a blueprint for building high-quality MCP servers that enable LLMs to interact with external services through well-designed tools and structured workflows. It helps teams standardize server development, reduce integration friction, and accelerate research-driven automation.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Platform-agnostic MCP server design for Python (FastMCP) and Node/TypeScript (MCP SDK), with clear naming conventions and tool design patterns.
- Phase-driven development guidance covering planning, implementation, testing, and evaluations to ensure reliable, reusable MCP servers.
- Best-practices library & references including MCP protocol guidelines, transport choices, pagination, error handling, and security considerations that can be adapted to real-world services.
Quick Start
Use this skill to bootstrap a new MCP server project named service-mcp using the MCP TypeScript SDK or Python FastMCP, following the recommended folder structure and tool registration patterns.
