SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of a complete, production-ready Go Model Context Protocol (MCP) server project, saving developers significant setup time and ensuring adherence to best practices.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Project Scaffolding: Generates a standard Go module structure with directories for tools, resources, and configuration.
  • Dependency Management: Includes the official go-sdk and sets up go.mod.
  • Tool & Resource Registration: Provides templates for defining and registering tools and resources within the MCP server.
  • Configuration Handling: Implements a basic configuration loading mechanism using environment variables.
  • Testing & Documentation: Includes a basic test file and a README template for project documentation.
  • Use Case: A new team needs to quickly spin up an MCP server for a new microservice. Instead of manually setting up the project structure, dependencies, and basic handlers, they use this Skill to generate a robust starting point in minutes.

Quick Start

Use the go-mcp-server-generator skill to create a new Go MCP server project named 'my-awesome-server'.

Frequently Asked Questions about go-mcp-server-generator

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold a Go MCP server project?▼

A Go MCP server requires the official modelcontextprotocol go-sdk for implementation. The generated project setup manages this dependency automatically, configuring go.mod to ensure type-safe inputs and outputs for tools using structs with JSON schema tags.

What is the best way to structure a Go backend for Model Context Protocol?▼

The best way to structure a Go backend for Model Context Protocol is using a standard module layout with dedicated directories for tools, resources, and configuration. This ensures adherence to development best practices, including graceful shutdown and environment-based configuration.

Can I use environment variables for configuration in a generated Go MCP server?▼

Yes, you can use environment variables for configuration in a generated Go MCP server. The project implements a basic configuration loading mechanism driven by environment variables to manage settings securely across different deployment contexts.

Does the generated Go MCP server include testing and documentation setup?▼

Yes, the generated Go MCP server includes testing and documentation setup. The project scaffolding provides a basic test file for verifying tool handlers and a README template to document server usage and resources.

How does tool registration work in a Go MCP server?▼

Tool registration in a Go MCP server works by providing templates to define and register tools within the server setup. It ensures type-safe inputs and outputs using structs with JSON schema tags for robust backend development.
