MCP Create Server

[](https://pypi.org/project/create-mcp-server/) [](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)

Create Model Context Protocol (MCP) server projects with no build configuration.

Quick Overview

# Using uvx (recommended)
uvx create-mcp-server

# Or using pip
pip install create-mcp-server
create-mcp-server

You don't need to install or configure any dependencies manually. The tool will set up everything you need to create an MCP server.

Creating a Server

You'll need to have UV >= 0.4.10 installed on your machine.

To create a new server, run either of these commands:

Using uvx (recommended)

uvx create-mcp-server

Using pip

pip install create-mcp-server
create-mcp-server

It will walk you through creating a new MCP server project. When complete, you'll have a new directory with this structure:

my-server/
├── README.md
├── pyproject.toml
└── src/
    └── my_server/
        ├── __init__.py
        ├── __main__.py
        └── server.py

No configuration or complicated folder structures, only the files you need to run your server.

Once installation is done, you can start the server:

cd my-server
uv sync --dev --all-extras
uv run my-server
