Overview

What is Description?

Description is a simple example web app and client that demonstrates mounting a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server onto an existing FastAPI server. It is intended for developers learning how to integrate MCP with FastAPI.

How to use Description?

Build and run the server using Docker (docker build -t fastapi-mcp . then docker run -p 8000:8000 --net=host fastapi-mcp) or set up a Python environment, install dependencies, and run uvicorn src.main:app. Then execute the sample client with python client/client.py.

Key features of Description?

Mounts an MCP server onto existing FastAPI
Includes sample client using MCP client library
Uses MCP Python SDK for server logic
Containerized with Docker for easy deployment
Modular code with separate server and client modules

Use cases of Description?

Learning how to integrate MCP with a FastAPI application
Testing MCP server functionality via a sample client
Prototyping MCP-based services with minimal setup
Understanding FastAPI sub‑application mounting patterns

Frequently asked questions

What is the purpose of this project?

It serves as a learning example showing how to mount a Model Context Protocol server on top of a FastAPI application, with a matching client that communicates using the MCP client library.

What are the runtime requirements?

The server can run inside Docker or directly with Python. The client requires the packages listed in `requirements.txt`.

Where is the MCP server mounted?

The MCP server is mounted as a sub‑application on the FastAPI server, currently limited to the root path `/` due to a known issue in the MCP Python SDK.
