MCP Server Example
This project is an example of a simple web server, mcp-server, designed to be run easily and without a complex setup process.
It uses uv, a fast Python package manager, to execute the server directly from its GitHub repository in a temporary environment.
Prerequisites
Before you can run the server, you need to have uv installed on your system.
Install uv
On macOS and Linux:
On Windows (PowerShell):
Running the Server
You can run the server with a single command in your terminal. This command uses uvx to fetch the code from GitHub, set up a temporary environment, and run the mcp-server application.
After running this, the server will start and be accessible on your local machine (typically at http://127.0.0.1:8000).
Task Runner Configuration
The JSON snippet below is an example of how you might configure a task runner (like just or a custom script) to create a convenient alias for the run command.
In this configuration, a task named addnumbers is defined to execute the server.
If you were using a tool that reads this configuration, you could simply run your-task-runner addnumbers to start the server.
This server cannot be installed
local-only server
The server can only run on the client's local machine because it depends on local resources.
A simple example MCP server that demonstrates basic server functionality and can be easily run using uv package manager. Provides a minimal implementation for learning and development purposes.
