MCP Server Dev

A comprehensive guide and toolkit for building your own MCP servers — covering tool design, auth patterns, and all three deployment modes.

Building an MCP server to work with Claude doesn't have to be complicated. This guide walks you through the whole journey — deciding how to deploy it, designing your tools the right way, and getting your code up and running. You'll learn how to add authentication so everything stays secure, package everything for distribution, and choose between remote HTTP servers, interactive apps with built-in UI, or local bundles depending on what you need.
