Kotlin MCP Server
A sample MCP server demonstrating multiple transport modes: STDIO, SSE (plain), and SSE (Ktor plugin).
Note: The SSE transport modes are provided for backward compatibility. For new projects, consider using the simple-streamable-server sample, which uses the recommended Streamable HTTP transport.
Overview
This sample registers a prompt, a tool, and a resource, then lets you choose how to expose them.
STDIO mode is the default and is best for process-based clients. The two SSE modes show how to
serve MCP over HTTP using either a manual Ktor routing setup or the built-in mcp { } Ktor plugin.
Prerequisites
- JDK 17+
- MCP Inspector (optional, for testing)
Build & Run
STDIO mode (default)
./gradlew run
Or explicitly:
./gradlew run --args="--stdio"
Connect with the MCP Inspector:
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --config samples/kotlin-mcp-server/mcp-inspector-config.json --server stdio-server
SSE with Ktor plugin
./gradlew run --args="--sse-server-ktor 3002"
Connect with the MCP Inspector:
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --config samples/kotlin-mcp-server/mcp-inspector-config.json --server sse-ktor-server
SSE with plain configuration
Known issue: This mode may not work correctly at this time.
./gradlew run --args="--sse-server 3001"
Connect with the MCP Inspector:
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --config samples/kotlin-mcp-server/mcp-inspector-config.json --server sse-server
