Introduction to MCP Framework

This framework makes it easy to create and manage MCP (modelcontextprotocol) servers that can be used with MCP Clients like the Claude Desktop app.

It is simple and intuitive to use.

MCP-Framework gives you architecture out of the box, with automatic directory-based discovery for tools, resources, and prompts. Use our powerful MCP abstractions to define tools, resources, or prompts in an elegant way. Our cli makes getting started with your own MCP server a breeze

Quick Setup

You can build a MCP server with mcp-framework in under 5 minutes! Follow the quickstart guide to get started.

Quickstart Guide

Key Features​

How It Works​

MCP Framework provides three main components:

1. Tools​

Functions that AI models can invoke to:

  • Fetch data from APIs
  • Transform data
  • Perform computations
  • Interact with external services

2. Resources​

Data sources that can be:

  • Read by the AI model
  • Subscribed to for updates
  • Used to provide context

3. Prompts​

Template systems that:

  • Define reusable conversation flows
  • Provide structured context
  • Guide model interactions

The framework handles all communication between your server and AI models, following the Model Context Protocol specification.
