# Basic Math MCP Server A simple Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides basic mathematical operations. ## Features This MCP server provides two tools: - **sum**: Add two numbers together - **subtraction**: Subtract the second number from the first number ## Installation 1. Install dependencies: ```bash npm install ``` 2. Build the TypeScript code: ```bash npm run build ``` ## Usage ### Testing the server directly ```bash npm start ``` ### Connecting to AI clients (Claude Desktop, etc.) 1. Copy the `mcp.json` configuration to your AI client's MCP configuration directory 2. Update the path in `mcp.json` to point to your server's location 3. Restart your AI client ### Configuration for Claude Desktop Add this to your Claude Desktop MCP configuration file: ```json { "mcpServers": { "basic-math-server": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/your/project/build/index.js"], "cwd": "/path/to/your/project", "description": "A basic math server providing sum and subtraction operations" } } } ``` ## Available Tools ### sum - **Description**: Add two numbers together - **Parameters**: - `a` (number): First number - `b` (number): Second number - **Returns**: The sum of the two numbers ### subtraction - **Description**: Subtract the second number from the first number - **Parameters**: - `a` (number): First number (minuend) - `b` (number): Second number (subtrahend) - **Returns**: The result of a - b ## Development - **Build**: `npm run build` - **Start**: `npm start` - **Development**: `npm run dev` (builds and starts) ## Project Structure ``` ├── src/ │ └── index.ts # Main server implementation ├── build/ # Compiled JavaScript output ├── package.json # Node.js dependencies and scripts ├── tsconfig.json # TypeScript configuration ├── mcp.json # MCP server configuration └── README.md # This file ```
