MCP Server Template
A minimal FastMCP server template for Render deployment with streamable HTTP transport.
Local Development
Setup
Fork the repo, then run:
Test
Open http://localhost:3000 and connect to http://localhost:8000/mcp using "Streamable HTTP" transport (NOTE THE /mcp!).
Deployment
Option 1: One-Click Deploy
Click the "Deploy to Render" button above.
Option 2: Manual Deployment
Fork this repository
Connect your GitHub account to Render
Create a new Web Service on Render
Connect your forked repository
Render will automatically detect the
render.yamlconfiguration
Your server will be available at https://your-service-name.onrender.com/mcp (NOTE THE /mcp!)
Poke Setup
You can connect your MCP server to Poke at (poke.com/settings/connections)[poke.com/settings/connections].
To test the connection explitly, ask poke somethink like Tell the subagent to use the "{connection name}" integration's "{tool name}" tool.
If you run into persistent issues of poke not calling the right MCP (e.g. after you've renamed the connection) you may send clearhistory to poke to delete all message history and start fresh.
We're working hard on improving the integration use of Poke :)
Customization
Add more tools by decorating functions with @mcp.tool:
This server cannot be installed
remote-capable server
The server can be hosted and run remotely because it primarily relies on remote services or has no dependency on the local environment.
A minimal FastMCP server template for Render deployment with streamable HTTP transport. Provides a starting point for building custom MCP servers with easy deployment options.
