Hello MCP Server

Simple MCP (Model Context Protocol) server with AWS Lambda deployment.

🚀 Quick Start

Local Development

npm install npm run dev

Connect to Claude Desktop by adding to config:

{ "mcpServers": { "hello-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["tsx", "/Users/mingfang/Code/hello-mcp/index.ts"] } } }

Deploy to AWS Lambda

# Build and deploy npm run deploy # Or step by step npm run build:lambda sam deploy --guided

First time setup:

Stack Name: hello-mcp-stack
Region: ap-southeast-2
Bearer Token: mcp-secret-token-12345
Confirm all: Y

🔑 Authentication

Bearer token: mcp-secret-token-12345

Change it:

sam deploy --parameter-overrides BearerToken="your-new-token"

🧪 Test Deployment

# Health check curl https://gjt4ggcz76.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/health # List available tools curl -H "Authorization: Bearer mcp-secret-token-12345" \ https://gjt4ggcz76.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/mcp # Call sayHello tool curl -X POST \ -H "Authorization: Bearer mcp-secret-token-12345" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"tool": "sayHello", "params": {"name": "World"}}' \ https://gjt4ggcz76.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/mcp

🔌 Connect Claude to Lambda

Edit: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{ "mcpServers": { "hello-mcp-lambda": { "url": "https://gjt4ggcz76.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/mcp", "transport": "http", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer mcp-secret-token-12345" } } } }
