MCP Lambda Server

A Node.js package that provides MCP (Model Context Protocol) server infrastructure for AWS Lambda functions with SSE support.

Features

Adapts the MCP TypeScript SDK to work with AWS Lambda
Supports Server-Sent Events (SSE) through Lambda response streaming
Handles CORS and HTTP method validation
TypeScript support

Important Notes

Lambda response streaming only works with Function URLs. It does not work with API Gateway or Application Load Balancer.
Only Node.js runtime is officially supported for response streaming.

Installation

npm install @markvp/mcp-lambda-layer

Usage

Create your Lambda function and import the package:

import { MCPHandlerFactory } from '@markvp/mcp-lambda-layer';
import { z } from 'zod';

// Create MCP handler factory with your configuration
const factory = new MCPHandlerFactory({
  tools: {
    summarize: {
      params: {
        text: z.string(),
      },
      handler: async ({ text }) => {
        // Your implementation here - could be any service/model/API
        const summary = await yourSummarizeImplementation(text);
        return {
          content: [{ type: 'text', text: summary }],
        };
      },
    },
  },
  prompts: {
    generate: {
      description: 'Generate content based on a prompt',
      handler: async extra => {
        // Your implementation here - could be any service/model/API
        const result = await yourGenerateImplementation(extra.prompt);
        return {
          content: [{ type: 'text', text: result }],
        };
      },
    },
  },
});

// Export the handler directly
export const handler = factory.getHandler();
