xmcp
TypeScript framework for building MCP servers that expose tools, prompts and resources to AI applications.
xmcp is a TypeScript framework for building MCP servers, which give AI applications tools, prompts and resources through the Model Context Protocol. The installation page scaffolds a project with create-xmcp-app and asks which transport to use: HTTP, which runs on a server, or STDIO, which runs on the user’s machine.
An HTTP server can be hosted as a Node.js web service, as the Render guide describes, or run as a Vercel Function, as the Vercel guide describes.
Worth knowing
The build step needs the xmcp compiler as a development dependency, and the Vercel guide says to keep development dependencies installed during the build. The built server is self-contained at runtime.
