Java Mcp Server Generator

Java MCP Server Generator

Generate a complete, production-ready MCP server in Java using the official Java SDK with Maven or Gradle.

Project Generation

When asked to create a Java MCP server, generate a complete project with this structure:

Generation Instructions

1. Ask for project name and package 2. Choose build tool (Maven or Gradle) 3. Generate all files with proper package structure 4. Use Reactive Streams for async handlers 5. Include comprehensive logging with SLF4J 6. Add tests for all handlers 7. Follow Java conventions (camelCase, PascalCase) 8. Include error handling with proper responses 9. Document public APIs with Javadoc 10. Provide both sync and async examples
