Photon

Photon is a runtime designed to significantly simplify the development and deployment of Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers by enabling developers to consolidate all business logic, dependencies, and configuration into a single TypeScript file. It directly addresses the complexity and scattered logic of traditional MCP server setups, making tools easier for both humans and AI agents to understand, maintain, and debug. By automating boilerplate, schema generation from TypeScript types, and dependency management via JSDoc annotations, Photon empowers developers to focus purely on business logic, facilitating an AI-native design where the entire context of a tool is available in one coherent unit. It also features a "fork-first" philosophy for easy customization and a robust marketplace system for sharing and installing production-ready MCP tools.
