MCP Server Demo
A getting started guide and template for creating Python-based MCP servers using uv for project management. Provides setup instructions for developing and testing MCP tools that can integrate with Claude Desktop.
README
Getting Started with MCP in Your Python Project
These instructions are adapted from the original GitHub MCP Python SDK Repository: Model Context Protocol Python SDK.
We will use uv to manage your Python projects for a streamlined and reproducible setup.
1. Initialize a New uv-Managed Project
If you're starting fresh, initialize a new project:
uv init mcp-server-demo
cd mcp-server-demo
You can then copy the server.py file in your new project.
2. Add MCP to Your Project
Add the MCP package, including the CLI tools, as a dependency:
uv add "mcp[cli]"
3. Run the MCP Development Tools
To use the MCP CLI with uv:
uv run mcp
3. Interact with the Tool
If you have Claude Desktop, you can start interacting with the tool from the UI by running the following command:
uv mcp install server.py
You can follow this tutorial for a step by step initialziation.
Alternatively, you can test it with the MCP Inspector:
uv mcp dev server.py
