Everything MCP Server
Architecture | Project Structure | Startup Process | Server Features | Extension Points | How It Works
This MCP server attempts to exercise all the features of the MCP protocol. It is not intended to be a useful server, but rather a test server for builders of MCP clients. It implements prompts, tools, resources, sampling, and more to showcase MCP capabilities.
Tools, Resources, Prompts, and Other Features
A complete list of the registered MCP primitives and other protocol features demonstrated can be found in the Server Features document.
