What is OpenAPI MCP Server?
The OpenAPI MCP Server is a skeleton project designed to help developers quickly create their own MCP (Managed Component Protocol) server. It offers a foundation with implemented handlers across standard I/O, SSE, and OpenAPI/REST protocols, providing flexibility in communication methods.
How to use OpenAPI MCP Server?
The server can be built and run using Docker or Docker Compose. Configuration is managed through an mcp.json
file. The MODE
environment variable controls the server's operating mode (stdio, sse, or openapi). Refer to the README for specific commands to build and run the server in each mode.
