This TypeScript-based boilerplate offers a foundational Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed for experimentation and learning. It comes with two simple, illustrative tools: a 'hello' tool for personalized greetings and an 'add' tool for basic arithmetic operations. The project serves as an excellent starting point for developers looking to understand and build their own MCP-compliant servers, emphasizing best practices like type safety with TypeScript and code quality with ESLint through a strict configuration.
