Model Context Protocol Library

Welcome to the MBASE MCP library documentation!

Document Navigation

The document is structured into two chapters as follows:

• Quickstart: In this chapter, we start by creating a CMake project and linking the MCP SDK to it. Afterwards, we implement a simple MCP server with tool/resource/prompt features and communicate with that server through the MCP client which is also implemented using the SDK.

• Information Reference: This chapter contains useful reference information for an advanced, full-featured MCP SDK usage.
