\ Minimal Example Implementation of an Anthropic MCP Client and Server in Python with Pip. \ \ The goal of this repository is to provide a reference implementation of a mcp client and server that can be easily debugged in VSCode on Windows using the Python / Python Debugger extension.\ \ Alternative IDEs and OS are not tested but should work with minimal adjustments, too.\ \
