SSE-based Server and Client for
A working pattern for SSE-based MCP clients and servers
What is MCP SSE?
MCP SSE is a working pattern for Server-Sent Events (SSE) based clients and servers that utilize the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for real-time data communication.
How to use MCP SSE?
To use MCP SSE, ensure you have the ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
set in your environment. Run the server with uv run weather.py
and the client with uv run client.py http://0.0.0.0:8080/sse
.
Key features of MCP SSE?
- Real-time data communication using SSE
- Decoupled server and client architecture
- Integration with National Weather Service APIs for weather data
Use cases of MCP SSE?
- Building cloud-native applications that require real-time data updates.
- Creating weather forecasting tools that utilize live data.
- Developing agents that can connect to and interact with various tools in a decoupled manner.
FAQ from MCP SSE?
