The MCP Ping-Pong Server is an experimental, educational application. It demonstrates the use of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) with a FastAPI backend, built for high-performance handling of ping-pong style commands.
To use it, first install the required dependencies via Poetry. Then, run the server and interact with it through the provided client UI.
Key features include a FastAPI backend for high-speed endpoints, MCP integration for efficient command handling, and thread-safe session management that supports concurrent users.
Its primary use cases are for learning and demonstrating API interactions with MCP, for testing integrations between FastAPI and MCP, and for building interactive applications that need real-time command processing.
Frequently asked questions include its purpose, which is primarily educational. The server is started by running python mcp-api-server.py. The client interface is available in the file mcp-client.html.
