Crate mcp_kit 

mcp — Rust library for building MCP servers

A high-quality, type-safe, async-first library for the Model Context Protocol.

Quick start

use mcp_kit::prelude::*;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
    McpServer::builder()
        .name("my-server")
        .version("1.0.0")
        .tool(
            Tool::new("greet", "Say hello", serde_json::json!({
                "type": "object",
                "properties": { "name": { "type": "string" } },
                "required": ["name"]
            })),
            |args: serde_json::Value| async move {
                CallToolResult::text(format!("Hello, {}!", args["name"]))
            },
        )
        .build()
        .serve_stdio()
        .await?;
    Ok(())
}

types

Traits

Deserialize

A data structure that can be deserialized from any data format supported by Serde.

JsonSchema

A type which can be described as a JSON Schema document.

Serialize

A data structure that can be serialized into any data format supported by Serde.

Attribute Macros

prompt

Marks an async function as an MCP prompt handler and generates a companion {fn_name}_prompt_def() function that returns a mcp::PromptDef.

resource

Marks an async function as an MCP resource handler and generates a companion {fn_name}_resource_def() function that returns a mcp::ResourceDef.

tool

Marks an async function as an MCP tool and generates a companion {fn_name}_tool_def() function that returns a mcp::ToolDef.
