EAG v3 — MCP demo with Prefab UI

A FastMCP server with three tools that exercise (1) the internet, (2) local-file CRUD, and (3) generative UI via Prefab. Designed to run inside Claude Desktop.

Tools

Related MCP server: MCP + CrewAI Agentic Integration

Setup

Requires uv (brew install uv) and Claude Desktop.

cd /Users/nitingangwar/Documents/Code/eagv3/mcp
uv sync

Wire into Claude Desktop

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json and add (or merge) the mcpServers block:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eag-mcp-demo": {
      "command": "/opt/homebrew/bin/uv",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--directory",
        "/Users/nitingangwar/Documents/Code/eagv3/mcp",
        "python",
        "server.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. The MCP indicator should show eag-mcp-demo with three tools.

plain-Python fallback (no uv)

python3 -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/pip install -e .

Then in Claude Desktop config use:

"command": "/Users/nitingangwar/Documents/Code/eagv3/mcp/.venv/bin/python",
"args": ["/Users/nitingangwar/Documents/Code/eagv3/mcp/server.py"]

Demo prompt

Paste this in Claude Desktop after the server is wired up:

Find the ownership details of Tata Sons via web search, save a 2–3 sentence summary into my notes file under the key tata_sons, then open the dashboard so I can see it.

Expected behavior:

1. web_search("Tata Sons ownership") → DDG abstract.

2. notes_file("create", "tata_sons", "<summary>") → writes to notes.json.

3. show_dashboard() → renders a Prefab card grid inline with one card.

Re-run with another company (e.g. "Reliance Industries") and the dashboard now shows two cards.

Smoke test

# Server starts and blocks on stdin (correct):
uv run python server.py

# Or interactive inspector:
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv run python server.py

In the inspector: list tools, call web_search("Tata Sons"), then call notes_file("create", "x", "y") and confirm notes.json updates on disk.

Fallbacks

• Prefab renderer doesn't engage (Claude Desktop returns JSON instead of UI): change the show_dashboard decorator from @mcp.tool(app=True) to plain @mcp.tool and have it return a Markdown table built from notes.json.

• DuckDuckGo returns empty for the query: DDG only has Instant Answers for well-known entities. Use famous companies / people / places for the demo.
