Overview

What is EZ-MCP?

EZ-MCP is a collection of ready-to-run, single-file MCP server templates in Python/uv and TypeScript/Deno. It provides instant setup with all core MCP features (resources, tools, prompts) and is designed for developers who want to build or experiment with MCP servers in minutes.

How to use EZ-MCP?

Clone the repository, pick a template (ez-mcp.py or ez-mcp.ts), and run it directly with uv run ez-mcp.py or deno run --allow-all ez-mcp.ts. Alternatively, copy the template file, rename it, customize the server name and tools, then run your new server. Use MCP Inspector for testing.

FAQ from EZ-MCP

What runtime do I need to run EZ-MCP templates?

Python templates require uv (install via curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh). TypeScript templates require Deno (install via curl -fsSL https://deno.land/install.sh | sh).

Does the server include all core MCP features?

Yes. Each template demonstrates resources (dynamic data sources), tools (LLM‑callable functions), prompts (reusable templates), and environment variable configuration.

How can I customize the server?

Copy the template file, rename it, change the server name in the code, then add your own tools using the documented patterns. Dependencies can be added inline (Python) or imported directly (TypeScript).

How do I connect the EZ-MCP server to an MCP client?

Add the command and arguments to your client’s mcp.json file. For Python use "command": "uv", "args": ["run", "/path/to/server.py"]; for TypeScript use "command": "deno", "args": ["run", "--allow-all", "/path/to/server.ts"].

Are there example tools I can learn from?

Yes. The README provides complete examples for a file search tool, a web scraper, and a database query tool in both Python and TypeScript.

Frequently asked questions

What runtime do I need to run EZ-MCP templates?

Python templates require `uv` (install via `curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh`). TypeScript templates require Deno (install via `curl -fsSL https://deno.land/install.sh | sh`).

Does the server include all core MCP features?

Yes. Each template demonstrates resources (dynamic data sources), tools (LLM‑callable functions), prompts (reusable templates), and environment variable configuration.

How can I customize the server?

How do I connect the EZ-MCP server to an MCP client?

Add the command and arguments to your client’s `mcp.json` file. For Python use `"command": "uv", "args": ["run", "/path/to/server.py"]`; for TypeScript use `"command": "deno", "args": ["run", "--allow-all", "/path/to/server.ts"]`.

Are there example tools I can learn from?

Yes. The README provides complete examples for a file search tool, a web scraper, and a database query tool in both Python and TypeScript.
