# TinyMCP A tiny Ruby implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that makes it easy to create and serve tools locally for AI assistants. ## Installation ```bash gem install tiny_mcp ``` ## Usage Create tools by inheriting from `TinyMCP::Tool`: ```ruby #!/usr/bin/env ruby require 'tiny_mcp' class WeatherTool < TinyMCP::Tool name 'get_weather' desc 'Get current weather for a city' arg :city, :string, 'City name' # required opt :units, :string, 'Temperature units (c/f)' # optional def call(city:, units: 'c') # Your implementation here "Weather in #{city}: 20°C, sunny" end end class TimeTool < TinyMCP::Tool name 'get_time' desc 'Get current time' opt :timezone, :string, 'Timezone name' def call(timezone: 'UTC') Time.now.getlocal(timezone).to_s end end # Serve multiple tools TinyMCP.serve(WeatherTool, TimeTool) ``` You can put this in a `bin/mcp` file for example, and make it executable: ```bash chmod +x bin/mcp ``` Then add it to Claude Code: ```bash claude mcp add my-mcp bin/mcp ``` The server reads JSON-RPC requests from stdin and writes responses to stdout. ## Development After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake test` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment. To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org). ## Contributing Bug reports and pull requests are welcome on GitHub at https://github.com/maxim/tiny_mcp.
