A high-quality Rust implementation of the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) (MCP) SDK, maintaining full compatibility with the TypeScript SDK while leveraging Rust's performance and safety guarantees.

Code Name: *Angel Rust*

## Features

- 🚀 **Full Protocol Support**: Complete implementation of MCP specification
- 🔄 **Multiple Transports**: stdio (implemented), HTTP/SSE and WebSocket (coming soon)
- ðŸ›Ąïļ **Type Safety**: Compile-time protocol validation
- ⚡ **Zero-Copy Parsing**: Efficient message handling
- 🔐 **Built-in Auth**: OAuth 2.0 and bearer token support
- 📊 **Comprehensive Testing**: Property tests with 100% invariant coverage
- 🏗ïļ **Quality First**: Zero technical debt, no unwraps in production code

## Installation

Add to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
pmcp = "0.1.0"
```

## Examples

cargo run --example 02_server_basic

# Client tool usage
cargo run --example 03_client_tools

# Server with resources
cargo run --example 04_server_resources

# Client resource access
cargo run --example 05_client_resources

# Server with prompts
cargo run --example 06_server_prompts

# Client prompts usage
cargo run --example 07_client_prompts

# Logging
cargo run --example 08_logging

# Authentication (OAuth, Bearer tokens)
cargo run --example 09_authentication

# Progress notifications
cargo run --example 10_progress_notifications

# Request cancellation
cargo run --example 11_request_cancellation

# Error handling patterns
cargo run --example 12_error_handling
```

See the [examples directory](examples/) for detailed documentation.

## Quick Start

### Client Example

```rust
use pmcp::{Client, StdioTransport, ClientCapabilities};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Create client with stdio transport
    let transport = StdioTransport::new();
    let mut client = Client::new(transport);
    
    // Initialize connection
    let server_info = client.initialize(ClientCapabilities::default()).await?;
    println!("Connected to: {}", server_info.server_info.name);
    
    // List available tools
    let tools = client.list_tools(None).await?;
    for tool in tools.tools {
        println!("Tool: {} - {:?}", tool.name, tool.description);
    }
    
    // Call a tool
    let result = client.call_tool("get-weather", serde_json::json!({
        "location": "San Francisco"
    })).await?;
    
    Ok(())
}
```

### Server Example

```rust
use pmcp::{Server, ServerCapabilities, ToolHandler};
use async_trait::async_trait;
use serde_json::Value;

struct WeatherTool;

#[async_trait]
impl ToolHandler for WeatherTool {
    async fn handle(&self, args: Value) -> pmcp::Result<Value> {
        let location = args["location"].as_str()
            .ok_or_else(|| pmcp::Error::validation("location required"))?;
        
        // Implement weather fetching logic
        Ok(serde_json::json!({
            "temperature": 72,
            "condition": "sunny",
            "location": location
        }))
    }
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let server = Server::builder()
        .name("weather-server")
        .version("1.0.0")
        .capabilities(ServerCapabilities::tools_only())
        .tool("get-weather", WeatherTool)
        .build()?;
    
    // Run with stdio transport
    server.run_stdio().await?;
    Ok(())
}
```

## Transport Options

### stdio (Default)
```rust
let transport = StdioTransport::new();
```

### HTTP/SSE
```rust
let transport = HttpTransport::new("http://localhost:8080");
```

### WebSocket
```rust
let transport = WebSocketTransport::connect("ws://localhost:8080").await?;
```

## Development

### Prerequisites

- Rust 1.80.0 or later
- Git

### Setup

```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/paiml/rust-pmcp
cd rust-pmcp

# Install development tools
make setup

# Run quality checks
make quality-gate
```

### Quality Standards

This project maintains pmat-level quality standards:

- **Zero Technical Debt**: No TODO/FIXME comments
- **No `unwrap()`**: All errors handled explicitly
- **100% Documentation**: Every public API documented
- **Property Testing**: Comprehensive invariant testing
- **Benchmarks**: Performance regression prevention

### Testing

```bash
