mcp-prompts-rs
A Rust-based server for managing AI prompts using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
Overview
mcp-prompts-rs is a Rust implementation of a prompt management server that adheres to the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard for connecting AI applications to data sources and tools. This project is a Rust rewrite of the original mcp-prompts TypeScript implementation.
The server provides functionality for storing, retrieving, and managing AI prompts with support for template variables, categorization, and multiple storage backends.
Features
- Prompt Management: Create, retrieve, update, and delete prompts with categorization
- Template Support: Create prompts with variables for runtime customization
- Storage Backends: Support for file system and PostgreSQL storage options
- API: RESTful endpoints with Server-Sent Events (SSE) for real-time updates
- MCP Integration: Implements the Model Context Protocol for seamless integration with AI assistants like Claude
- Project Orchestration: Tools for automating software project creation using templates
- Deployment: Docker support and health check endpoints
Installation
Prerequisites
- Rust 1.70 or higher
- Cargo (Rust's package manager)
- Optional: PostgreSQL for database storage
Setup
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/your-username/mcp-prompts-rs.git
cd mcp-prompts-rs
- Build the project:
cargo build
Usage
Running the Server
Start the server with default settings:
cargo run
With custom configuration:
cargo run -- --port 3000 --storage filesystem
CLI Options
--port <PORT>
: Set the server port (default: 8080)--storage <TYPE>
: Choose storage backend (filesystem, postgres)--db-url <URL>
: PostgreSQL connection string (when using postgres storage)--prompt-dir <DIR>
: Directory for prompt storage (when using filesystem storage)
Integration with Claude
To integrate with Claude Desktop:
- Open Claude Desktop
- Go to Settings → Developer → Edit Config
- Add the following to your configuration:
{
"mcp": {
"servers": [
{
"name": "mcp-prompts-rs",
"url": "http://localhost:8080"
}
]
}
}
