SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates MCP server setup and maintenance for Node/TypeScript SDK-based tooling.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Tools: register actions the model can invoke (e.g. search, run commands) via server.tool or registerTool.
  • Resources: register and fetch read-only data via server.resource or registerResource; handle uri in handlers.
  • Prompts: reusable templates the client can surface (registerPrompt) for consistent model interactions.
  • Transport: choose stdio for local clients or Streamable HTTP for remote deployments and cloud integration.

Quick Start

Create and configure an MCP server using the Node/TypeScript SDK, register tools and resources, and enable either stdio or Streamable HTTP transport.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up an MCP server using the Node and TypeScript SDK?

To set up an MCP server with Node and TypeScript, you configure the SDK, register tools, resources, and prompts, and enable either stdio or Streamable HTTP transport for client communication.

What is the difference between stdio and Streamable HTTP transports for an MCP server?

MCP server transport selection depends on your deployment target: choose stdio for local client connections, or select Streamable HTTP to support remote deployments and cloud integration.

How do I register tools and resources in a TypeScript MCP server?

Register MCP server tools using server.tool or registerTool for model-invocable actions, and register read-only data resources via server.resource or registerResource, ensuring you handle uri in handlers.

Can I use Zod for schema validation when configuring MCP server tools?

Yes, you can use Zod for schema validation when configuring MCP server tools. The setup ensures registration patterns and schema validation are applied correctly for TypeScript-based tooling.

How do I create reusable prompt templates for consistent model interactions in MCP?

Create reusable prompt templates in an MCP server by using the registerPrompt function, allowing clients to surface consistent templates that guide model interactions across sessions.

Why is my MCP server registration or transport not working during debugging?

MCP server registration and transport issues often stem from incorrect configuration. Debugging involves verifying registration patterns, checking schema validation with Zod, and confirming transport setup.
