MCP Transport – Streamable HTTP

Features

• Bi-directional
• Single endpoint
• Resumability
• Notifications: notifications are possible in SSE, Streamable http makes it seamless

Similarities

• To make streamable http run on top of ASGI server looks exactly the same but over endpoint /mcp

Build a streamable-http caclulator.

• run the server uv run server.py
• you can use it from mcp inspector mcp dev server.py
• from claude desktop Refer Here. Add the below section to mcpServers in json

"calc-streamable": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:8000/mcp/"
      ]
    }

• Refer Here for the code

Exercise

• I want you to run swiggy-mcp with transport streamable-http and integrate with claude desktop.
• note: ensure mcp server is running uv run customercare.py

Waiting for you to run this till 9:00 AM

"swiggy-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:8000/mcp/"
      ]
    }   

Next Steps:

• Lets make swiggy-mcp asynchronous and run on ASGI Server. We will be using FastAPI for this (we can also use starlette and run using uvicorn.)
