78 | | -## Creating Your Own MCP Tools |
79 | | - |
80 | | -To create your own MCP tools: |
81 | | - |
82 | | -1. Import the necessary components from `mcp`: |
83 | | - ```python |
84 | | - from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP |
85 | | - ``` |
86 | | - |
87 | | -2. Initialize your MCP server with a namespace: |
88 | | - ```python |
89 | | - mcp = FastMCP("your-namespace") |
90 | | - ``` |
91 | | - |
92 | | -3. Define your tools using the `@mcp.tool()` decorator: |
93 | | - ```python |
94 | | - @mcp.tool() |
95 | | - async def your_tool_function(param1: str, param2: int) -> str: |
96 | | - """ |
97 | | - Your tool description. |
98 | | - |
99 | | - Args: |
100 | | - param1: Description of param1 |
101 | | - param2: Description of param2 |
102 | | - |
103 | | - Returns: |
104 | | - The result of your tool |
105 | | - """ |
106 | | - # Your implementation here |
107 | | - return result |
108 | | - ``` |
109 | | - |
110 | | -4. Run your server using the appropriate transport: |
111 | | - ```python |
112 | | - mcp.run(transport='stdio') # or set up SSE as shown in server.py |
113 | | - ``` |
114 | | - |

125 | | -## Understanding MCP |
126 | | - |
127 | | -The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standardized way for AI models to interact with external tools and resources. Key concepts include: |
128 | | - |
129 | | -- **Tools**: Functions that models can call to perform actions or retrieve information |
130 | | -- **Resources**: External data sources that models can reference |
131 | | -- **Transports**: Communication channels between clients and MCP servers (stdio, SSE) |
132 | | -- **Namespaces**: Logical groupings of related tools |
133 | | - |
134 | | -This template is specifically designed to make working with MCP more accessible, with the integrated documentation helping AI tools better understand and generate appropriate code for MCP implementations. |
