# My MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server built with Ruby and the official MCP Ruby SDK.

## Features

- ✅ Tools: greet, calculate
- ✅ Prompts: code_review
- ✅ Resources: example-data
- ✅ Input/output schemas
- ✅ Tool annotations
- ✅ Structured content
- ✅ Full test coverage

## Requirements

- Ruby 3.0 or later

## Installation

bundle install


## Usage

### Stdio Transport

Run the server:

bundle exec bin/mcp-server


Then send JSON-RPC requests:

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"1","method":"ping"} {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"2","method":"tools/list"} {"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"3","method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"greet","arguments":{"name":"Ruby"}}}


### Rails Integration

Add to your Rails controller:

class McpController < ApplicationController def index server = MyMcpServer::Server.new( server_context: { user_id: current_user.id } ) render json: server.handle_json(request.body.read) end end


## Testing

Run tests:

bundle exec rake test


Run linter:

bundle exec rake rubocop


Run all checks:

bundle exec rake


## Integration with Claude Desktop

Add to `claude_desktop_config.json`:

{ "mcpServers": { "my-mcp-server": { "command": "bundle", "args": ["exec", "bin/mcp-server"], "cwd": "/path/to/my-mcp-server" } } }

Generation Instructions

1. Ask for project name and description 2. Generate all files with proper naming and module structure 3. Use classes for tools and prompts for better organization 4. Include input/output schemas for type safety 5. Add tool annotations for behavior hints 6. Include structured content in responses 7. Implement comprehensive tests for all tools 8. Follow Ruby conventions (snake_case, modules, frozen_string_literal) 9. Add proper error handling with is_error flag 10. Provide both stdio and HTTP usage examples
