Uses Hono as the underlying web framework for implementing the SSE server, providing routing and HTTP handling capabilities for real-time communication.
Built on Node.js runtime environment, allowing the MCP server to be deployed and run on various platforms that support Node.js.
Utilizes Yarn as the package manager for dependency management and script execution in the project.
Example MCP SSE Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation, enabling server-sent events (SSE) based communication.
Overview
Example MCP SSE Server provides a Model Context Protocol implementation that allows for real-time communication using Server-Sent Events (SSE). It's designed to work with applications and provides a standardized way of managing and communicating with models and resources.

Usage
Starting the Server
To start the server in development mode:
This will run the server with the MCP inspector for debugging.

To start the server in production mode:
By default, the server runs on port 3001. You can override this by setting the PORT environment variable:
Endpoints
/sse- SSE endpoint for establishing persistent connections/messages- Endpoint for sending messages to the MCP server
