TypeScript MCP Demo Server

A basic Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation using TypeScript SDK and Bun runtime.

Overview

This project demonstrates how to build an MCP server with TypeScript, featuring:

  • Server initialization with stdio transport
  • Tool registration and handling
  • TypeScript type safety
  • Bun runtime for fast execution

Prerequisites

  • Bun (latest version)
  • Task (optional, for task runner)

Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/gedankrayze/ts-demo-mcp.git
cd ts-demo-mcp

# Install dependencies
bun install

Project Structure

ā”œā”€ā”€ src/
ā”‚   ā””ā”€ā”€ index.ts        # Main MCP server implementation
ā”œā”€ā”€ package.json        # Project dependencies and scripts
ā”œā”€ā”€ tsconfig.json       # TypeScript configuration
ā”œā”€ā”€ Taskfile.yaml       # Task runner configuration

Available Tools

The server implements two example tools:

1. greet

Greets a user with their name.

Input Schema:

{
  "name": "string"  // Required: The name of the person to greet
}

Example Response:

Hello, John! Welcome to the TypeScript MCP demo server.

2. add_numbers

Adds two numbers together.

Input Schema:

{
  "a": "number",  // Required: The first number
  "b": "number"   // Required: The second number
}

Example Response:

The sum of 5 and 3 is 8.

Usage

Using npm/bun scripts

# Start the MCP server
bun start

# Run TypeScript type checking
bun typecheck

Using Task runner

# Start the MCP server
task start

# Inspect server capabilities with MCP inspector
task inspect-server

# Send a raw initialization request
task inspect

Integration with Claude Desktop

To use this server with Claude Desktop, add the following to your Claude Desktop configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ts-demo-mcp": {
      "command": "bun",
      "args": ["run", "/path/to/ts-demo-mcp/src/index.ts"]
    }
  }
}

Development

Adding New Tools

To add new tools to the server:

  1. Update the tool list in the ListToolsRequestSchema handler
  2. Add the tool implementation in the CallToolRequestSchema handler

Example:

// In ListToolsRequestSchema handler
{
  name: "my_tool",
  description: "Description of what the tool does",
  inputSchema: {
    type: "object",
    properties: {
      param1: { type: "string", description: "Parameter description" }
    },
    required: ["param1"]
  }
}

// In CallToolRequestSchema handler
case "my_tool": {
  const param1 = request.params.arguments?.param1 as string;
  return {
    content: [{
      type: "text",
      text: `Tool output for ${param1}`
    }]
  };
}

Type Checking

The project uses TypeScript with strict mode enabled. Run type checking with:

bun typecheck

MCP Inspector

The project includes the MCP inspector for debugging. Use it to explore server capabilities:

task inspect-server

This will launch an interactive web interface to test your MCP server.
