Features

  • Authentication built in, using your existing FastAPI dependencies!

  • FastAPI-native: Not just another OpenAPI -> MCP converter

  • Zero/Minimal configuration required - just point it at your FastAPI app and it works

  • Preserving schemas of your request models and response models

  • Preserve documentation of all your endpoints, just as it is in Swagger

  • Flexible deployment - Mount your MCP server to the same app, or deploy separately

  • ASGI transport - Uses FastAPI's ASGI interface directly for efficient communication

Installation

We recommend using uv, a fast Python package installer:

uv add fastapi-mcp

Alternatively, you can install with pip:

pip install fastapi-mcp

Basic Usage

The simplest way to use FastAPI-MCP is to add an MCP server directly to your FastAPI application:

from fastapi import FastAPI
from fastapi_mcp import FastApiMCP

app = FastAPI()

mcp = FastApiMCP(app)

# Mount the MCP server directly to your FastAPI app
mcp.mount()

That's it! Your auto-generated MCP server is now available at https://app.base.url/mcp.
