MCP SSE Server

MCP SSE Server and Client Example

This repository contains a complete example implementation of an SSE (Server-Sent Events) based MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and client.

Overview

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a communication protocol designed for AI systems. This implementation demonstrates how to create an MCP server that uses Server-Sent Events (SSE) for real-time communication with clients.

Features

• SSE-based MCP Server: Implements a server using Express.js and the MCP SDK's SSEServerTransport
• Interactive MCP Client: Provides a client implementation that connects to the SSE server
• Tool Implementations: Includes example tools (add, multiply) with proper descriptions
• Dynamic Resources: Demonstrates dynamic resource templates with URI patterns
• Debugging Support: Includes detailed logging and debugging configurations

Components

• server.js - A basic MCP server using StdioServerTransport
• sse-server.js - An MCP server using SSEServerTransport with Express.js
• client.js - A client for the basic server
• sse-client.js - A client for the SSE server

Getting Started

1. Install dependencies:
   npm install
2. Start the SSE server:
   npm run sse-server
3. In another terminal, run the SSE client:
   npm run sse-client

Server Features

The SSE server provides:

• Tool endpoints for addition and multiplication
• A dynamic greeting resource with template support
• Proper session management for multiple clients
• Detailed logging for debugging

Client Features

The SSE client demonstrates:

• Connecting to the SSE server
• Listing available tools and resources
• Calling tools with parameters
• Reading resources with dynamic parameters

URI Templates

The server demonstrates how to expose URI templates to clients, allowing them to understand how to construct resource URIs dynamically:
