- Full JSON‑RPC 2.0 implementation
- MCP protocol support with capability negotiation
- Tool registration and execution (add, greeting)
- Resource handling according to MCP spec
- Standard error handling with proper error codes
- Security guidelines: user consent, data privacy, tool safety
Clone the repository, run go mod download, then start the server with go run main.go (listens on port 8080). Send JSON‑RPC 2.0 requests via HTTP POST to http://localhost:8080 using tools like add (params a, b) or greeting (params name).

Installation
git clone https://github.com/akhidasTech/mcpcalculator.git
cd mcpcalculator
go mod download
Usage
Starting the Server
go run main.go
The server will start on port 8080.
Making Requests
Tools and resources follow the JSON-RPC 2.0 specification:
Add Tool
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080 \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "add",
"params": {"a": 5, "b": 3}
}'
Greeting Resource
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080 \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "greeting",
"params": {"name": "John"}
}'
Response Format
All responses follow the JSON-RPC 2.0 format:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"result": <result_value>
}
Or for errors:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"error": {
"code": <error_code>,
"message": "error message",
"data": <additional_data>
}
}
Protocol Implementation
This implementation follows the Model Context Protocol specification:
1. JSON-RPC 2.0: All communication uses the JSON-RPC 2.0 protocol
2. Capabilities: Server advertises its capabilities during initialization
3. Tools: Implements the tool registration and execution protocol
4. Resources: Implements the resource access protocol
5. Error Handling: Uses standard error codes and formats
Security
This implementation follows MCP security guidelines:
1. User Consent: Tools and resources require explicit invocation
2. Data Privacy: No data is shared without explicit requests
3. Tool Safety: Tool execution is controlled and validated
4. Error Handling: Proper error reporting and handling
