Overview

What is Getting Started?

Getting Started is an example MCP server built with TanStack that demonstrates remote connectivity using SSE (Server-Sent Events) transport. It serves as a reference implementation for developers testing MCP remote connections or learning how to set up a remote MCP server.

How to use Getting Started?

Install dependencies with pnpm i, then start the dev server with pnpm dev. Connect a remote client using npx mcp-remote http://localhost:3000/api/sse and include the JSON configuration in your client’s settings. It works out of the box with Claude Desktop via mcp-remote.
