# MCP - Model Context Protocol Server
An Elixir implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that communicates via Server-Sent Events over HTTP.
## Installation
Add `mcp` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:mcp, "~> 0.1.0"}
]
end
```
## Phoenix Integration
Mount the MCP router in your Phoenix application:
```elixir
# In your Phoenix router (lib/my_app_web/router.ex)
defmodule MyAppWeb.Router do
use MyAppWeb, :router
# Your existing routes...
# Mount MCP router under /mcp prefix
forward "/mcp", MCP.Router, init_callback: &MyApp.MCP.Tools.init_callback/2
end
```
Define your tools:
```elixir
# lib/my_app/mcp/tools.ex
defmodule MyApp.MCP.Tools do
def init_callback(_session_id, _init_params) do
tools = [
%{
spec: %{
"name" => "echo",
"description" => "Echoes back the input text",
"inputSchema" => %{
"type" => "object",
"properties" => %{
"text" => %{"type" => "string", "description" => "Text to echo"}
},
"required" => ["text"]
}
},
callback: fn %{"text" => text} ->
{:ok, %{content: [%{type: "text", text: "Echo: #{text}"}]}}
end
}
]
{:ok, %{
server_info: %{name: "My App MCP Server", version: "1.0.0"},
tools: tools
}}
end
end
```
Your MCP server will be available at:
- SSE endpoint: `GET /mcp/`
- JSON-RPC messages: `POST /mcp/message`
## Protocol Implementation
This implementation follows the MCP specification version **2024-11-05** with:
**Core Features:**
- Server-Sent Events (SSE) transport
- JSON-RPC 2.0 message protocol
- Session management with automatic cleanup
- Tool discovery via `tools/list`
- Tool execution via `tools/call`
- Protocol version negotiation
**Tool Support:**
- MCP-compliant tool specifications
- JSON Schema validation for input parameters
- Text content responses
- Error handling with `isError` flag
- Tool callback execution
**Not Implemented:**
- Image/resource content types
- `listChanged` notifications
- Advanced pagination features
