So MCP servers are really cool for giving your LLMs superpowers... but also pretty complex to build and debug. I created FastMCP to make it easy. Let me know what you think! github.com/jlowin/fastmcp

Way easier to create a MCP server 🙏 Does MCP in your desktop require the Claude Desktop app? At the end of the day it's only an Electron app. Asking because there's no Linux app so far (

Today it does, though I understand they will relax that soon

A pity! I'd love to try it, but it implies virtualboxing a Windows and I'm too lazy

This is the entirety of a FastMCP echo server

Does this thing work on linux machines? Haven't tried it yet seeing only mac/win binaries on their website. Thanks for packaginng

MCP Servers should work fine on linux, and I would guess the devtools do too, but I think Claude Desktop doesn't have a Linux version yet, so would have to wait for that OR support for remote servers (supposed to be coming soon)

I love it. We have a similar abstraction internally but opted for a more low level SDK. I think this FastAPi approach is much nicer for most people. Keep up the good work!

Maybe we should chat if this approach should have a place in the official sdk or if we keep it as is.

High level and low level tools tend to have very different tolerances for velocity, breaking changes, etc. but would love to explore. Wasn’t able to DM you before - will connect!
