About boilerplate-mcp-server
aashari/boilerplate-mcp-server
TypeScript Model Context Protocol (MCP) server boilerplate providing IP lookup tools/resources. Includes CLI support and extensible structure for connecting AI systems (LLMs) to external data sources like ip-api.com. Ideal template for creating new MCP integrations via Node.js.
This project provides a secure, ready-to-use template for connecting AI assistants (like Claude Desktop or Cursor AI) to external data sources. It takes requests from an AI for external information, retrieves that data from an API (like IP geolocation services), and returns the results to the AI in a format it can easily understand and use. This is designed for developers who want to build custom integrations that allow their AI applications to access real-world information.

A super simple Starter to build your own MCP Server
This project helps developers quickly set up their own Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. It provides a basic structure to integrate local development tools like Cursor AI or Claude with the MCP standard. Developers can use this starter to create a server that processes inputs from an MCP-compatible client and outputs the results of their custom tools.
