Frequently asked questions

1

How do I handle Express route mapping?

Because Express handles routes differently, you must set a `netlify.toml` redirect from `/mcp` to `/.netlify/functions/express-mcp-server` with `force = true` and `status = 200`.

2

What are the prerequisites for local development?

You need Node.js, the Netlify CLI (install with `npm i -g netlify-cli`), and to clone the examples repository.

3

Can I deploy my own version?

Yes, click the "Deploy to Netlify" button in the README to clone the example, create a Netlify project, and set up automated deployments.

4

Where can I see a live demo?

The demo site is hosted at https://mcp-example-express.netlify.app/.

5

How do I test the MCP server locally?

Run `netlify dev` to start a local server, then in a separate terminal run `npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector npx mcp-remote@next http://localhost:8888/mcp`.
