Frontend-Agnostic MCP Server

A Multi-Core Processing (MCP) server that can be used with any frontend, not just Claude Desktop.

Changes Made

The original script was designed specifically for Claude Desktop, which automatically handles the server initialization. The updated script adds:

1. An explicit mcp.serve() call to start the server
2. Command-line argument parsing for host/port configuration
3. A proper if __name__ == "__main__": block to allow the script to be imported without starting the server

Setup

1. Install dependencies:

   pip install mcp-server requests python-dotenv
   

2. Create a .env file with your Boomi token:

   BOOMI_TOKEN=your_token_here
   

3. Run the server:

   python mcp_server.py
   

   Optional arguments:

   • --host: Host to bind to (default: 0.0.0.0)
   • --port: Port to listen on (default: 8000)

Usage

The server exposes an add tool that can be called from any frontend that supports the MCP protocol. The tool adds two numbers using a Boomi integration, with a local fallback.

How It Works

This MCP server connects to a Boomi integration process for adding numbers. If the Boomi service fails, it falls back to calculating the sum locally.

Using with Different Frontends

With Python Client

from mcp.client import Client

client = Client("http://localhost:8000")
result = client.add(a=5, b=10)
print(result)

With HTTP Request

POST http://localhost:8000/v1/tools/add
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "a": 5,
  "b": 10
}
