Integrations
Provides the runtime environment for the MCP server, enabling server-side execution of the tools and communication via standard I/O.
Supports package management for the MCP server, allowing easy installation of dependencies and execution of build scripts.
Serves as the foundation for building custom MCP tools, providing type safety and structure for implementing tools that can be integrated with AI systems.
MCP TypeScript Simple Template
A simple TypeScript template for building Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. This project provides a foundation for creating custom MCP tools that can be integrated with AI systems.
Overview
This template implements a basic MCP server with a sample BMI calculator tool. It demonstrates how to:
- Set up an MCP server in TypeScript
- Define and implement MCP tools with input validation using Zod
- Connect the server to standard I/O for communication
Prerequisites
- Node.js (v20 or higher recommended)
- npm or yarn
Installation
- Clone this repository
- Install dependencies:
Project Structure
index.ts
- Main server implementation with sample toolpackage.json
- Project dependencies and scriptstsconfig.json
- TypeScript configuration
Usage
Building and Running
Build and start the server:
This will compile the TypeScript code and start the MCP server.
Development
For development, you can:
- Modify
index.ts
to add your own tools - Run the build command to compile:
Creating Custom Tools
