Introduction to mcp-golang
mcp-golang is an unofficial implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) in Go, designed to simplify the process of writing MCP servers and clients with minimal code.
Key Features:
- Type Safety: Define tool arguments as native Go structs, allowing automatic schema generation and error handling.
- Custom Transports: Utilize built-in transports (stdio for full feature support, HTTP for stateless communication) or create your own.
- Low Boilerplate: Automatically generates all MCP endpoints apart from your tools, prompts, and resources.
- Modular Design: The library is divided into three components: transport, protocol, and server/client, allowing flexible usage.
- Bi-directional Communication: Full support for both server and client implementations through stdio transport.
Benefits:
- Rapid development of MCP servers and clients with minimal code.
- Easy integration with existing Go applications.
- Active community support and contribution opportunities.
Highlights:
- Example usage for both server and client implementations.
