What You’ll Learn By the end of this tutorial, you’ll understand how to build a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server in Rust that exposes tools AI assistants can use. We’ll build a simple calculator service with four operations. Prerequisites What is MCP? The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard that allows AI assistants to […]
MCP is completely agnostic to HTTP (and its versions). MCP doesn’t require HTTP at all. ✅ MCP Is Transport-Agnostic MCP is fundamentally about structured message passing, not the transport. It can work over: 🧠 Why MCP Skips HTTP HTTP comes with baggage MCP doesn’t need, like: HTTP Concern Needed in MCP? Why Not? Verb (GET/POST/PUT/…) […]
Let’s extend our MCP server’s capabilities using resource templates – one of the most powerful features of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) ecosystem. What Are Resource Templates? Resource templates allow you to define dynamic resources using URI patterns. Unlike static resources with fixed URIs, templates let you create resources whose URIs and content can be […]
