Description

This repository is a starter project for building Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers in TypeScript, featuring a simple echo tool, resource, and prompt to demonstrate core capabilities. It includes a development inspector with hot reloading, clear instructions for STDIO (local) and SSE (remote) modes, and guidance for deployment (e.g., Coolify) and environment variable handling. The project is intended to help developers prototype MCP tools and integrate them into agents or UIs, with built-in examples and debugging/logging support.
