# MCP Server Integration Skill

Integrate external tool servers via MCP protocol into the agent framework.

## Architecture Overview

**Key References (read for deployment context):**
- `apps/cardapi/` - Complete reference implementation
- `infra/terraform/cardapi.tf` - Container App + IAM setup
- `devops/scripts/azd/postprovision.sh` - Data provisioning pattern
- `apps/artagent/backend/config/settings.py` - MCP configuration

## Intent 1: Create a New MCP Server

### Directory Structure (follow cardapi pattern)

### Server Implementation (FastMCP)

Per MCP spec 2025-11-25, use `streamable-http` transport for deployed servers:

```python
"""apps/myserver/mcp_app/service.py"""
import asyncio
import os
from typing import Literal

from fastmcp import FastMCP
from starlette.requests import Request
from starlette.responses import JSONResponse, Response

# Configuration
MCP_PORT = int(os.getenv("MCP_SERVER_PORT", "8080"))
MCP_TRANSPORT: Literal["stdio", "streamable-http"] = os.getenv(
    "MCP_TRANSPORT", "streamable-http"  # Default for deployed servers
)

mcp = FastMCP(
    name="my-server-name",
    instructions="Description for LLM context.",
)
