Requirements

  • Go 1.21 or higher

Installation

git clone https://github.com/akhidasTech/mcpcalculator.git
cd mcpcalculator
go mod download

Usage

Starting the Server

go run main.go

The server will start on port 8080.

Making Requests

Tools and resources follow the JSON-RPC 2.0 specification:

Add Tool
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080 \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "add",
    "params": {"a": 5, "b": 3}
  }'
Greeting Resource
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080 \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "greeting",
    "params": {"name": "John"}
  }'

Response Format

All responses follow the JSON-RPC 2.0 format:

{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "result": <result_value>
}

Or for errors:

{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "error": {
        "code": <error_code>,
        "message": "error message",
        "data": <additional_data>
    }
}

Protocol Implementation

This implementation follows the Model Context Protocol specification:

  1. JSON-RPC 2.0: All communication uses the JSON-RPC 2.0 protocol
  2. Capabilities: Server advertises its capabilities during initialization
  3. Tools: Implements the tool registration and execution protocol
  4. Resources: Implements the resource access protocol
  5. Error Handling: Uses standard error codes and formats

Security

This implementation follows MCP security guidelines:

  1. User Consent: Tools and resources require explicit invocation
  2. Data Privacy: No data is shared without explicit requests
  3. Tool Safety: Tool execution is controlled and validated
  4. Error Handling: Proper error reporting and handling
