This project demonstrates the creation and use of a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server in Golang, integrated with VS Code Copilot.
Model Context Protocol (MCP) example
This is a simple project that demonstrates how to create an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server in Golang and use it within VS Code Copilot.
It was built as part of a blog post explaining the basics of MCP and how it can be used to connect tools and data sources with AI-powered environments.
