MCP Go SDK

Open in GitHub Codespaces

PkgGoDev

This repository contains an implementation of the official Go software development kit (SDK) for the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Package / Feature documentation

The SDK consists of several importable packages:

The SDK endeavors to implement the full MCP spec. The docs/ directory contains feature documentation, mapping the MCP spec to the packages above.

Version Compatibility

The following table shows which versions of the Go SDK support which versions of the MCP specification:

SDK Version Latest MCP Spec All Supported MCP Specs
v1.2.0+ 2025年06月18日 2025年11月25日, 2025年06月18日, 2025年03月26日, 2024年11月05日
v1.0.0 - v1.1.0 2025年06月18日 2025年06月18日, 2025年03月26日, 2024年11月05日

Getting started

To get started creating an MCP server, create an mcp.Server instance, add features to it, and then run it over an mcp.Transport. For example, this server adds a single simple tool, and then connects it to clients over stdin/stdout:

package main
import (
	"context"
	"log"
	"github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk/mcp"
)
type Input struct {
	Name string `json:"name" jsonschema:"the name of the person to greet"`
}
type Output struct {
	Greeting string `json:"greeting" jsonschema:"the greeting to tell to the user"`
}
func SayHi(ctx context.Context, req *mcp.CallToolRequest, input Input) (
	*mcp.CallToolResult,
	Output,
	error,
) {
	return nil, Output{Greeting: "Hi " + input.Name}, nil
}
func main() {
	// Create a server with a single tool.
	server := mcp.NewServer(&mcp.Implementation{Name: "greeter", Version: "v1.0.0"}, nil)
	mcp.AddTool(server, &mcp.Tool{Name: "greet", Description: "say hi"}, SayHi)
	// Run the server over stdin/stdout, until the client disconnects.
	if err := server.Run(context.Background(), &mcp.StdioTransport{}); err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}

To communicate with that server, create an mcp.Client and connect it to the corresponding server, by running the server command and communicating over its stdin/stdout:

package main
import (
	"context"
	"log"
	"os/exec"
	"github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk/mcp"
)
func main() {
	ctx := context.Background()
	// Create a new client, with no features.
	client := mcp.NewClient(&mcp.Implementation{Name: "mcp-client", Version: "v1.0.0"}, nil)
	// Connect to a server over stdin/stdout.
	transport := &mcp.CommandTransport{Command: exec.Command("myserver")}
	session, err := client.Connect(ctx, transport, nil)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	defer session.Close()
	// Call a tool on the server.
	params := &mcp.CallToolParams{
		Name: "greet",
		Arguments: map[string]any{"name": "you"},
	}
	res, err := session.CallTool(ctx, params)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalf("CallTool failed: %v", err)
	}
	if res.IsError {
		log.Fatal("tool failed")
	}
	for _, c := range res.Content {
		log.Print(c.(*mcp.TextContent).Text)
	}
}

The examples/ directory contains more example clients and servers.

We welcome contributions to the SDK! Please see CONTRIBUTING.md for details of how to contribute.

Acknowledgements / Alternatives

Several third party Go MCP SDKs inspired the development and design of this official SDK, and continue to be viable alternatives, notably mcp-go, originally authored by Ed Zynda. We are grateful to Ed as well as the other contributors to mcp-go, and to authors and contributors of other SDKs such as mcp-golang and go-mcp. Thanks to their work, there is a thriving ecosystem of Go MCP clients and servers.
