MCP TypeScript SDK

TypeScript implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP), providing both client and server capabilities for integrating with LLM surfaces.

Overview

The Model Context Protocol allows applications to provide context for LLMs in a standardized way, separating the concerns of providing context from the actual LLM interaction. This TypeScript SDK implements the full MCP specification, making it easy to:

• Build MCP clients that can connect to any MCP server
• Create MCP servers that expose resources, prompts and tools
• Use standard transports like stdio and SSE
• Handle all MCP protocol messages and lifecycle events

Installation

npm install @modelcontextprotocol/sdk

Quick Start

Creating a Client

import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client";
import { StdioClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/stdio";

const transport = new StdioClientTransport({
  command: "path/to/server",
});

const client = new Client({
  name: "example-client",
  version: "1.0.0",
});

await client.connect(transport);

// List available resources
const resources = await client.request(
  { method: "resources/list" },
  ListResourcesResultSchema
);

// Read a specific resource
const resourceContent = await client.request(
  {
    method: "resources/read",
    params: {
      uri: "file:///example.txt"
    }
  },
  ReadResourceResultSchema
);

Creating a Server

import { Server } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server";
import { StdioServerTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/stdio";

const server = new Server({
  name: "example-server",
  version: "1.0.0",
});

server.setRequestHandler(ListResourcesRequestSchema, async () => {
  return {
    resources: [
      {
        uri: "file:///example.txt",
        name: "Example Resource",
      },
    ],
  };
});

server.setRequestHandler(ReadResourceRequestSchema, async (request) => {
  if (request.params.uri === "file:///example.txt") {
    return {
      contents: [
        {
          uri: "file:///example.txt",
          mimeType: "text/plain",
          text: "This is the content of the example resource.",
        },
      ],
    };
  } else {
    throw new Error("Resource not found");
  }
});

const transport = new StdioServerTransport();
await server.connect(transport);
