|
83 | | -### MCPServer Options |
| 65 | +```typescript |
| 66 | +import { MCPPrompt } from "mcp-framework"; |

84 | 73 |
|
85 | | -- `name`: Server name |
86 | | -- `version`: Server version |
87 | | -- `toolsDir`: Directory containing tool files (optional) |
88 | | -- `excludeTools`: Array of patterns for files to exclude (optional) |
| 74 | +class GreetingPrompt extends MCPPrompt<GreetingInput> { |
| 75 | + name = "greeting"; |
| 76 | + description = "Generate a greeting in different languages"; |

| 93 | + { |
| 94 | + role: "user", |
| 95 | + content: { |
| 96 | + type: "text", |
| 97 | + text: `Generate a greeting for ${name} in ${language}`, |

| 103 | + |
| 104 | +export default GreetingPrompt; |
| 105 | +``` |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +### 4. Create a Resource: |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +```typescript |
| 110 | +import { MCPResource, ResourceContent } from "mcp-framework"; |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | +class ConfigResource extends MCPResource { |

| 119 | + const config = { |
| 120 | + theme: "dark", |
| 121 | + language: "en", |
| 122 | + }; |
| 123 | + |
| 124 | + return [ |
| 125 | + { |
| 126 | + uri: this.uri, |
| 127 | + mimeType: this.mimeType, |
| 128 | + text: JSON.stringify(config, null, 2), |
| 129 | + }, |
| 130 | + ]; |
| 131 | + } |

| 153 | +## Automatic Feature Discovery |
| 154 | + |
| 155 | +The framework automatically discovers and loads: |
| 156 | + |
| 157 | +- Tools from the `src/tools` directory |
| 158 | +- Prompts from the `src/prompts` directory |
| 159 | +- Resources from the `src/resources` directory |
| 160 | + |
| 161 | +Each feature should be in its own file and export a default class that extends the appropriate base class: |
| 162 | + |
| 163 | +- `MCPTool` for tools |
| 164 | +- `MCPPrompt` for prompts |
| 165 | +- `MCPResource` for resources |
| 166 | + |
| 167 | +### Base Classes |
| 168 | + |
| 169 | +#### MCPTool |
| 170 | + |
| 171 | +- Handles input validation using Zod |
| 172 | +- Provides error handling and response formatting |
| 173 | +- Includes fetch helper for HTTP requests |
| 174 | + |
| 175 | +#### MCPPrompt |
| 176 | + |
| 177 | +- Manages prompt arguments and validation |
| 178 | +- Generates message sequences for LLM interactions |
| 179 | +- Supports dynamic prompt templates |
| 180 | + |
| 181 | +#### MCPResource |
| 182 | + |
| 183 | +- Exposes data through URI-based system |
| 184 | +- Supports text and binary content |
| 185 | +- Optional subscription capabilities for real-time updates |
| 186 | + |
| 187 | +## Type Safety |
| 188 | + |
| 189 | +All features use Zod for runtime type validation and TypeScript for compile-time type checking. Define your input schemas using Zod types: |
| 190 | + |
| 191 | +```typescript |
| 192 | +schema = { |
| 193 | + parameter: { |
| 194 | + type: z.string().email(), |
| 195 | + description: "User email address", |
| 196 | + }, |
| 197 | + count: { |
| 198 | + type: z.number().min(1).max(100), |
| 199 | + description: "Number of items", |
| 200 | + }, |
| 201 | +}; |
| 202 | +``` |
