What is mcp-rs-template?

mcp-rs-template is a Rust-based application template for building Model Context Protocol (MCP) CLI servers. It allows developers to easily create servers that can connect LLMs to external data sources and tools, enabling context-aware AI applications.

How to use mcp-rs-template?

To use the template, clone the repository, modify project information in Cargo.toml and src/mcp/mod.rs, modify server handlers in src/mcp/prompts.rs, src/mcp/resources.rs, and src/mcp/tools.rs, and modify src/mcp/templates/*.json if you prefer to use json files for prompts, resources, and tools. You can then run the server with CLI options such as --mcp, --resources, --prompts, and --tools. To integrate with Claude Desktop, edit claude_desktop_config.json and add a configuration for the server.
