* mcp: move to 2025-06-18 schema Add types and fields for the latest MCP schema. The main challenge here was dealing with the presence of _meta fields on many types, like Tool, Prompt and Resource. - Distinguish between the _meta field of a request's params, which includes a progress token, from the _meta field on other types, which is simply a map. - Redefine GetMeta to return a pointer to the map. We wanted to avoid that, but I don't see a clean way to do so. An alternative would be to have GetMeta return a map, and SetMeta to set it. - Provide GetProgressToken for requests only (not notifications or other types). - Still to do: deal with the meta and annotation fields of ContentBlock, which are currently duplicated for Resource and ResourceContents. * Meta and progress token redesign

# MCP Go SDK
|
|
|
|
<!-- TODO: update pkgsite links here to point to the modelcontextprotocol
|
|
module, once it exists. -->
|
|
|
|
[](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk)
|
|
|
|
This repository contains an implementation of the official Go software
|
|
development kit (SDK) for the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
|
|
|
|
**WARNING**: The SDK is currently unstable and subject to breaking changes.
|
|
Please test it out and file bug reports or API proposals. The [TODO](#todo)
|
|
section below outlines outstanding release blockers. We aim to release a stable
|
|
version of the SDK in August, 2025.
|
|
|
|
## Package documentation
|
|
|
|
The SDK consists of two importable packages:
|
|
|
|
- The
|
|
[`github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk/mcp`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk/mcp)
|
|
package defines the primary APIs for constructing and using MCP clients and
|
|
servers.
|
|
- The
|
|
[`github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk/jsonschema`](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk/jsonschema)
|
|
package provides an implementation of [JSON
|
|
Schema](https://json-schema.org/), used for MCP tool input and output schema.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
In this example, an MCP client communicates with an MCP server running in a
|
|
sidecar process:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
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-client", "v1.0.0", nil)
|
|
|
|
// Connect to a server over stdin/stdout
|
|
transport := mcp.NewCommandTransport(exec.Command("myserver"))
|
|
session, err := client.Connect(ctx, transport)
|
|
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.Text)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Here's an example of the corresponding server component, which communicates
|
|
with its client over stdin/stdout:
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
package main
|
|
|
|
import (
|
|
"context"
|
|
"log"
|
|
|
|
"github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk/mcp"
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
type HiParams struct {
|
|
Name string `json:"name"`
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
func SayHi(ctx context.Context, cc *mcp.ServerSession, params *mcp.CallToolParamsFor[HiParams]) (*mcp.CallToolResultFor[any], error) {
|
|
return &mcp.CallToolResultFor[any]{
|
|
Content: []*mcp.ContentBlock{mcp.NewTextContent("Hi " + params.Name)},
|
|
}, nil
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
func main() {
|
|
// Create a server with a single tool.
|
|
server := mcp.NewServer("greeter", "v1.0.0", nil)
|
|
server.AddTools(mcp.NewServerTool("greet", "say hi", SayHi))
|
|
// Run the server over stdin/stdout, until the client disconnects
|
|
if err := server.Run(context.Background(), mcp.NewStdioTransport()); err != nil {
|
|
log.Fatal(err)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `examples/` directory contains more example clients and servers.

|
|
## TODO
|
|
|
|
The following TODOs block the release of this SDK:
|
|
|
|
- Better support for resumability in the Streamable HTTP transport: a
|
|
server-side event store and client-side retry configuration.
|
|
- OAuth support (or examples of implementing OAuth using middleware).
|
|
- Support for the changes in the
|
|
[2025-06-18](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-06-18/changelog)
|
|
version of the MCP spec.
|
|
- More examples and documentation.
|
|
|
|
## Design
|
|
|
|
The design doc for this SDK is at [design.md](./design/design.md), which was
|
|
initially reviewed at
|
|
[modelcontextprotocol/discussions/364](https://github.com/orgs/modelcontextprotocol/discussions/364).
|
|
|
|
Further design discussion should occur in GitHub issues. See CONTRIBUTING.md
|
|
for details.
|
|
|
|
## Acknowledgements
|
|
|
|
Several existing Go MCP SDKs inspired the development and design of this
|
|
official SDK, notably [mcp-go](https://github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go), 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](https://github.com/metoro-io/mcp-golang) and
|
|
[go-mcp](https://github.com/ThinkInAIXYZ/go-mcp). Thanks to their work, there
|
|
is a thriving ecosystem of Go MCP clients and servers.
