MCP Server Setup Guide

A step-by-step guide to set up and run a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server using FastMCP.

Installation Steps

• UV is a fast Python package manager. Install it using pip:

pip install uv

• Verify installation:

uv --version

• Create a new directory for your MCP server and initialize it:

mkdir mcp-server
cd mcp-server
uv init .

• This creates the necessary project structure with:
  • pyproject.toml - Project configuration
  • .python-version - Python version specification
  • README.md - Project documentation
• Add FastMCP to your project dependencies:

uv add fastmcp

• Create a file named main.py with your server code:
• Use the MCP Inspector to test your server interactively:

uv run fastmcp dev main.py

• To run your server normally:

uv run fastmcp run main.py

• Automatically configure Claude Desktop to use your MCP server:

uv run fastmcp install claude-desktop main.py
