What is Build Custom MCP Servers?

This project demonstrates building simple MCP servers using the MCP Python SDK (mcp[cli]). It provides tools for note management, weather fetching, and news searching, using external API keys stored in a .env file.

How to use Build Custom MCP Servers?

Install Python 3.12 and a virtual environment manager. Clone the repository, set up a virtual environment, and install dependencies (e.g., uv sync). Copy .env.example to .env and add your WEATHER_API_KEY and BRAVE_API_KEY. Run the server with mcp install main.py to add it to Claude Desktop, or use mcp dev main.py for development.
