MCP Client
A basic Model Context Protocol (MCP) client implementation with example servers - one in Node.js and one in Python.
Overview
This repository contains a simple implementation of an MCP client that can communicate with MCP-compatible servers.
Setup
-
Install Python dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt
-
Configure servers in
servers_config.json
e.g.
{
"mcpServers": {
"git": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["mcp-server-git", "--repository", "."]
},
"puppeteer": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-puppeteer"]
}
}
}
You can get the list of available servers [!here][https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers].
Or write your own. For that add config something like:
"zotero-mcp-server": {
"command": "bash",
"args": [
"-c",
"cd /Users/swair/zotero-mcp-server && source .venv/bin/activate && python -m zotero_mcp.server"
]
},
Running the Client
python client.py
