Project Contents

src/everything:

index.ts

• CLI entry point that selects and runs a specific transport module based on the first CLI argument: stdio, sse, or streamableHttp.

AGENTS.md

• Directions for Agents/LLMs explaining coding guidelines and how to appropriately extend the server.

package.json

• Package metadata and scripts:
  • build: TypeScript compile to dist/, copies docs/ into dist/ and marks the compiled entry scripts as executable.
  • start:stdio, start:sse, start:streamableHttp: Run built transports from dist/.
• Declares dependencies on @modelcontextprotocol/sdk, express, cors, zod, etc.

docs/

• architecture.md
  • This document.
• server-instructions.md
  • Human‑readable instructions intended to be passed to the client/LLM as for guidance on server use. Loaded by the server at startup and returned in the “initialize” exchange.

prompts/

• index.ts
  • registerPrompts(server) orchestrator; delegates to prompt factory/registration methods from in individual prompt files.
• simple.ts
  • Registers simple-prompt: a prompt with no arguments that returns a single user message.
• args.ts
  • Registers args-prompt: a prompt with two arguments (city required, state optional) used to compose a message.
• completions.ts
  • Registers completable-prompt: a prompt whose arguments support server-driven completions using the SDK’s completable(...) helper (e.g., completing department and context-aware name).
• resource.ts
  • Exposes registerEmbeddedResourcePrompt(server) which registers resource-prompt — a prompt that accepts resourceType (“Text” or “Blob”) and resourceId (integer), and embeds a dynamically generated resource of the requested type within the returned messages. Internally reuses helpers from resources/templates.ts.

resources/

• index.ts
  • registerResources(server) orchestrator; delegates to resource factory/registration methods from individual resource files.
• templates.ts
  • Registers two dynamic, template‑driven resources using ResourceTemplate:
    • Text: demo://resource/dynamic/text/{index} (MIME: text/plain)
    • Blob: demo://resource/dynamic/blob/{index} (MIME: application/octet-stream, Base64 payload)
  • The {index} path variable must be a finite positive integer. Content is generated on demand with a timestamp.
  • Exposes helpers textResource(uri, index), textResourceUri(index), blobResource(uri, index), and blobResourceUri(index) so other modules can construct and embed dynamic resources directly (e.g., from prompts).
• files.ts
  • Registers static file-based resources for each file in the docs/ folder.
  • URIs follow the pattern: demo://resource/static/document/<filename>.
  • Serves markdown files as text/markdown, .txt as text/plain, .json as application/json, others default to text/plain.

server/

• index.ts
  • Server factory that creates an McpServer with declared capabilities, loads server instructions, and registers tools, prompts, and resources.
  • Sets resource subscription handlers via setSubscriptionHandlers(server).
  • Exposes { server, cleanup } to the chosen transport. Cleanup stops any running intervals in the server when the transport disconnects.
• logging.ts
  • Implements simulated logging. Periodically sends randomized log messages at various levels to the connected client session. Started/stopped on demand via a dedicated tool.

tools/

• index.ts
  • registerTools(server) orchestrator; delegates to tool factory/registration methods in individual tool files.
• echo.ts
  • Registers an echo tool that takes a message and returns Echo: {message}.
• get-annotated-message.ts
  • Registers an annotated-message tool which demonstrates annotated content items by emitting a primary text message with annotations that vary by messageType ("error" | "success" | "debug"), and optionally includes an annotated image (tiny PNG) when includeImage is true.
• get-env.ts
  • Registers a get-env tool that returns the current process environment variables as formatted JSON text; useful for debugging configuration.
• get-resource-links.ts
  • Registers a get-resource-links tool that returns an intro text block followed by multiple resource_link items.
• get-resource-reference.ts
  • Registers a get-resource-reference tool that returns a reference for a selected dynamic resource.
• get-roots-list.ts
  • Registers a get-roots-list tool that returns the last list of roots sent by the client.
• gzip-file-as-resource.ts
  • Registers a gzip-file-as-resource tool that fetches content from a URL or data URI, compresses it, and then either:
    • returns a resource_link to a session-scoped resource (default), or
    • returns an inline resource with the gzipped data. The resource will be still discoverable for the duration of the session via resources/list.
  • Uses resources/session.ts to register the gzipped blob as a per-session resource at a URI like demo://resource/session/<name> with mimeType: application/gzip.
  • Environment controls:
    • GZIP_MAX_FETCH_SIZE (bytes, default 10 MiB)
    • GZIP_MAX_FETCH_TIME_MILLIS (ms, default 30000)
    • GZIP_ALLOWED_DOMAINS (comma-separated allowlist; empty means all domains allowed)
• trigger-elicitation-request.ts
  • Registers a trigger-elicitation-request tool that sends an elicitation/create request to the client/LLM and returns the elicitation result.
• trigger-sampling-request.ts
  • Registers a trigger-sampling-request tool that sends a sampling/createMessage request to the client/LLM and returns the sampling result.
• get-structured-content.ts
  • Registers a get-structured-content tool that demonstrates structuredContent block responses.
• get-sum.ts
  • Registers an get-sum tool with a Zod input schema that sums two numbers a and b and returns the result.
• get-tiny-image.ts
  • Registers a get-tiny-image tool, which returns a tiny PNG MCP logo as an image content item, along with surrounding descriptive text items.
• trigger-long-running-operation.ts
  • Registers a long-running-operation tool that simulates a long-running task over a specified duration (seconds) and number of steps; emits notifications/progress updates when the client supplies a progressToken.
• toggle-simulated-logging.ts
  • Registers a toggle-simulated-logging tool, which starts or stops simulated logging for the invoking session.
• toggle-subscriber-updates.ts
  • Registers a toggle-subscriber-updates tool, which starts or stops simulated resource subscription update checks for the invoking session.

transports/

• stdio.ts
  • Starts a StdioServerTransport, created the server via createServer(), and connects it.
  • Handles SIGINT to close cleanly and calls cleanup() to remove any live intervals.
• sse.ts
  • Express server exposing:
    • GET /sse to establish an SSE connection per session.
    • POST /message for client messages.
  • Manages multiple connected clients via a transport map.
  • Starts an SSEServerTransport, created the server via createServer(), and connects it to a new transport.
  • On server disconnect, calls cleanup() to remove any live intervals.
• streamableHttp.ts
  • Express server exposing a single /mcp endpoint for POST (JSON‑RPC), GET (SSE stream), and DELETE (session termination) using StreamableHTTPServerTransport.
  • Uses an InMemoryEventStore for resumable sessions and tracks transports by sessionId.
  • Connects a fresh server instance on initialization POST and reuses the transport for subsequent requests.
