From GitHub, fetched 19 Oct 2026. Stars are for the whole repository; the last-update date is for this folder.

A reference server from the MCP project that implements prompts, resources, tools and sampling, so client developers can check their client handles each part of the protocol. It's meant for testing, not for real work.
