EasyMCP's decorator API is dead simple and infers types and input configuration automatically.

But it's experimental and may change or have not-yet-discovered problems.

import EasyMCP from "./lib/EasyMCP";
import { Tool, Resource, Prompt } from "./lib/experimental/decorators";

class MyMCP extends EasyMCP {

  @Resource("greeting/{name}")
  getGreeting(name: string) {
    return `Hello, ${name}!`;
  }

  @Prompt()
  greetingPrompt(name: string) {
    return `Generate a greeting for ${name}.`;
  }

  @Tool()
  greet(name: string, optionalContextFromServer: Context) {
    optionalContextFromServer.info(`Greeting ${name}`);
    return `Hello, ${name}!`;
  }
}

const mcp = new MyMCP({ version: "1.0.0" });

Complex Example with Decorators API

See examples/express-express.ts or run bun start:express

import EasyMCP from "./lib/EasyMCP";

class ZachsMCP extends EasyMCP {
  /**
  You can declare a Tool with zero configuration. Relevant types and plumbing will be inferred and handled.

  By default, the name of the Tool will be the name of the method.
  */
  @Tool()
  simpleFunc(nickname: string, height: number) {
    return `${nickname} of ${height} height`;
  }

  /**
   * You can enhance a tool with optional data like a description.

   Due to limitations in Typescript, if you want the Tool to serialize certain inputs as optional to the Client, you need to provide an optionals list.

Quick Start with Express-like API

Also see examples/example-minimal.ts or run bun start:express

This API is more verbose and less magical, but it's more stable and tested.

import EasyMCP from "easy-mcp";

const mcp = EasyMCP.create("my-mcp-server", {
  version: "0.1.0",
});

// Define a resource
mcp.resource({
  uri: "dir://desktop",
  name: "Desktop Directory", // Optional
  description: "Lists files on the desktop", // Optional
  mimeType: "text/plain", // Optional
  fn: async () => {
    return "file://desktop/file1.txt\nfile://desktop/file2.txt";
  },
});

// Define a resource template
mcp.template({
  uriTemplate: "file://{filename}",
  name: "File Template", // Optional
  description: "Template for accessing files", // Optional
  mimeType: "text/plain", // Optional
  fn: async ({ filename }) => {
    return `Contents of ${filename}`;
  },
});

// Define a tool
mcp.tool({
  name: "greet",
  description: "Greets a person", // Optional
  inputs: [ // Optional
    {
      name: "name",
      type: "string",
      description: "The name to greet",
      required: true,
    },
  ],
  fn: async ({ name }) => {
    return `Hello, ${name}!`;
  },
});

// Define a prompt
mcp.prompt({
  name: "introduction",
  description: "Generates an introduction", // Optional
  args: [ // Optional
    {
      name: "name",
      type: "string",
      description: "Your name",
      required: true,
    },
  ],
  fn: async ({ name }) => {
    return `Hi there! My name is ${name}. It's nice to meet you!`;
  },
});

// Start the server
mcp.serve().catch(console.error);

Express-Like API

EasyMCP.create(name: string, options: ServerOptions)

Creates a new EasyMCP instance.

• name: The name of your MCP server.
• options: Server options, including the version.

mcp.resource(config: ResourceConfig)

Defines a resource.

mcp.template(config: ResourceTemplateConfig)

Defines a resource template.

mcp.tool(config: ToolConfig)

Defines a tool.

mcp.prompt(config: PromptConfig)

Defines a prompt.

mcp.root(config: Root)

Defines a root.

mcp.serve()

Starts the MCP server.

(Experimental) Decorator API

EasyMCP provides decorators for a more concise and declarative way to define your MCP server components. Here's an overview of the available decorators:

@Tool(config?: ToolConfig)

Defines a method as a tool. The method will take in any arguments you declare and infer types and input configurations based on your TS annotations. An optional context argument can be added as the last argument to access MCP capabilities.

• config: Optional configuration object for the tool.
  • description: Optional description of the tool.
  • optionals: Optional array of parameter names that should be marked as optional.
  • parameters: Optional array of parameter definitions for full control over the input schema.

Example:

@Tool({
  description: "Greets a person",
  optionals: ["title"],
})
greet(name: string, title?: string, optionalContext: Context) {
  return `Hello, ${title ? title + " " : ""}${name}!`;
}

@Resource(uri: string, config?: Partial<ResourceDefinition>)

Defines a method as a resource or resource template. A resource template is defined by using handlebars in the URI.

• uri: The URI or URI template for the resource.
• config: Optional configuration object for the resource.
  • name: Optional name for the resource.
  • description: Optional description of the resource.
  • mimeType: Optional MIME type of the resource.

Example:

@Resource("greeting/{name}")
getGreeting(name: string) {
  return `Hel
