### Writing MCP Clients
The SDK provides a high-level client interface:
```typescript
import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js";
import { StdioClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/stdio.js";
const transport = new StdioClientTransport({
command: "node",
args: ["server.js"]
});
const client = new Client(
{
name: "example-client",
version: "1.0.0"
},
{
capabilities: {
prompts: {},
resources: {},
tools: {}
}
}
);
await client.connect(transport);
// List prompts
const prompts = await client.listPrompts();
// Get a prompt
const prompt = await client.getPrompt("example-prompt", {
arg1: "value"
});
// List resources
const resources = await client.listResources();
// Read a resource
const resource = await client.readResource("file:///example.txt");
// Call a tool
const result = await client.callTool({
name: "example-tool",
arguments: {
arg1: "value"
}
});
```
