How do I ensure my MCP server is secure?

The skill emphasizes the 'Lethal Trifecta' security pattern, requiring explicit user consent, clear UI for exposed tools, and restricted external communication capabilities.

What is the difference between a Tool and a Resource in MCP?

Tools are callable functions that perform actions or logic, while Resources are static or dynamic data sources that the LLM can read as context.

What is an MCP server in Ruby?

An MCP server is a service built using the Model Context Protocol that allows LLMs like Claude to access specific tools, resources, and prompts provided by your Ruby application.

Which transports are supported by the Ruby MCP SDK?

It supports STDIO for local CLI-based servers and Streamable HTTP (both stateful and stateless) for web applications and production environments.

Can I integrate this with Ruby on Rails?

Yes, the skill provides patterns for Rails integration, including controller setups, custom routes, and initializers for the MCP server.

Desarrollo de API

Builds and manages Model Context Protocol servers in Ruby to connect LLMs with custom tools and data.

Acerca de

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for developing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers using the official Ruby SDK. It guides developers through the implementation of tools, prompts, and resources, ensuring that LLMs can interact with Ruby applications efficiently and securely. By focusing on design philosophies like context preservation and domain-aligned vocabulary, it helps create high-performance integrations for both local CLI tools via STDIO and production-grade web services via HTTP.
