What is Model Context Protocol Servers?

This repository is a collection of reference implementations for the Model Context Protocol (MCP). MCP enables Large Language Models (LLMs) to securely access tools and data sources, expanding their capabilities and use cases.

How to use Model Context Protocol Servers?

The repository contains various server implementations in TypeScript and Python. Each server provides specific functionalities, such as accessing databases, filesystems, web APIs, or other services. To use a server, you typically need to install the required dependencies (e.g., using npx for TypeScript or uvx/pip for Python) and configure it within an MCP client, like Claude Desktop, by specifying the command and arguments to start the server.

FAQ from Model Context Protocol Servers

What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?

MCP is a protocol that allows Large Language Models (LLMs) to securely and controlled access tools and data sources.

What are reference implementations?

Reference implementations are examples of how to implement the MCP protocol in different programming languages and for different use cases.

How do I use the servers in this repository?

You can use the servers directly with npx for TypeScript-based servers, or uvx or pip for Python-based servers. You'll also need to configure an MCP client to connect to the server.

What is an MCP client?

An MCP client is an application that can connect to and use MCP servers. Examples include Claude Desktop.
