A Go SDK implementing the Model Context Protocol (MCP), letting developers build MCP servers that expose tools, resources, and prompts to LLM applications. It supports multiple transports (stdio, StreamableHTTP, SSE, in-process) with a high-level, type-safe API.

Use cases

  • build an MCP server in Go that exposes tools to Claude or other LLM clients
  • connect my Go backend's data sources to LLM applications via MCP
  • expose internal APIs as MCP tools for AI agents
  • run an MCP server over stdio for desktop AI apps
  • serve MCP over HTTP with server-sent events
  • add OAuth-protected MCP resources

When to choose

  • you are writing MCP servers or clients in Go
  • you want a high-level, low-boilerplate SDK covering tools, resources, and prompts
  • you need multiple transport options including stdio and HTTP

When to avoid

  • you need MCP support in another language like Python or TypeScript
  • you require advanced MCP capabilities that are still in progress
  • your project is not related to LLM-tool integration
