Add to your Gemfile:

gem 'mcp_on_ruby'

Then run:

bundle install

Or install directly:

gem install mcp_on_ruby

Create a basic MCP server with tools:

require 'mcp_on_ruby'

server = MCP::Server.new do |s|
  # Define a tool
  s.tool "weather.get_forecast" do |params|
    location = params[:location]
    { forecast: "Sunny", temperature: 72, location: location }
  end
  
  # Add a resource
  s.resource "user.profile" do
    { name: "John", email: "john@example.com" }
  end
end

server.start

Connect to an MCP server:

require 'mcp_on_ruby'

client = MCP::Client.new(url: "http://localhost:3000")
client.connect

# List available tools
tools = client.tools.list

# Call a tool
result = client.tools.call("weather.get_forecast", 
  { location: "San Francisco" }
)

Model-controlled functions with JSON Schema-defined parameters:

server.tools.define('example') do
  parameter :name, :string
  
  execute do |params|
    "Hello, #{params[:name]}!"
  end
end

Application-controlled data sources:

server.resource "user.profile" do
  { name: "John", email: "john@example.com" }
end

Secure your server with OAuth 2.1:

oauth_provider = MCP::Server::Auth::OAuth.new(
  client_id: 'your-client-id',
  client_secret: 'your-client-secret',
  token_expiry: 3600,
  jwt_secret: 'your-jwt-secret',
  issuer: 'your-server'
)

• Token-based authentication
• JWT validation
• Automatic token refresh
• Scope-based authorization

• Method-level permissions
• Scope requirements
• Middleware architecture
