Practice FAQs

Question 1

What is Practice?

Accepted Answer

Practice is an example TypeScript server built with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) SDK. It demonstrates a practical implementation of an MCP server by providing a 'fetch-weather' tool that queries current city weather.

Question 2

How does Practice fetch weather data?

Accepted Answer

The 'fetch-weather' tool within Practice utilizes the Open-Meteo API to retrieve weather information. It efficiently validates input parameters using Zod and provides current day weather details without requiring an API key.

Question 3

What are the prerequisites to run Practice?

Accepted Answer

To run Practice, you need Git, Node.js version 20 or higher, and a package manager like pnpm or npm. Optionally, an MCP-compatible client (e.g., Claude Desktop) is useful for integration and testing.

Question 4

How can I test or integrate Practice?

Accepted Answer

Practice communicates via stdio, making it compatible with various MCP clients. You can easily test it locally using the MCP Inspector (a recommended method) or integrate it directly by configuring your MCP client to execute the server command.

Question 5

Does the weather tool require an API key?

Accepted Answer

No, the 'fetch-weather' tool in Practice uses the Open-Meteo API for geo-coding and weather forecasting, which does not require a separate API key for its basic functionality.
