Generated from https://github.com/yogsgehlot/Mern-Chat-App (commit 21caed2360bb39358ee031eb29e521a1a1ae1c90).

Setup

1. pip install -e . (or pip install -r requirements.txt if provided separately).
2. Copy .env.example to .env and fill in the values below, or have your deployment platform inject them as environment variables directly - nothing here contains real credentials.
3. Run: python server.py

Required environment variables

Transport

Two transports, selected via MCP_TRANSPORT:

• stdio (default) - the standard subprocess transport most MCP hosts use.

• streamable-http - hosts this server over HTTP/HTTPS at /mcp, so it can run as a standalone network service. Configure with:

  • HOST (default 0.0.0.0), PORT (default 8000)
  • MCP_TLS_CERTFILE / MCP_TLS_KEYFILE - set both to serve HTTPS directly; otherwise plain HTTP is served (fine behind a TLS-terminating proxy/ingress).

  Example: MCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http PORT=8000 python server.py
