Overview

What is MCP Server Python?

MCP Server Python is a Python server example that provides tools to LLMs such as Claude AI using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It offers BMI calculation and weather information lookup functions.

How to use MCP Server Python?

Install dependencies with pip install mcp httpx, then run the server using python server.py or mcp run server.py. Connect to Cursor by placing an mcp.json file in the project root, or to Claude for Desktop by running the server and adding it in the MCP settings.

Key features of MCP Server Python

Provides calculate_bmi tool for BMI calculation
Provides fetch_weather tool for city weather lookup
Connects to Cursor and Claude for Desktop
Built with MCP Python SDK and httpx
Requires Python 3.9 or higher

Use cases of MCP Server Python

Calculate BMI for health and fitness applications
Fetch current weather for travel or planning
Demonstrate how to build an MCP server in Python
Integrate LLM chatbots with external data via function calling

FAQ from MCP Server Python

What tools does MCP Server Python provide?

It provides two tools: calculate_bmi (calculates BMI from height and weight) and fetch_weather (retrieves weather for a given city, requiring an API key).

What are the prerequisites to run MCP Server Python?

You need Python 3.9 or higher, pip, httpx, and the MCP Python SDK (installed via pip install mcp httpx).

How do I connect MCP Server Python to Cursor?

Create an mcp.json file in the project root with the command mcp run /path/to/server.py. Claude in Cursor will automatically recognize the tools.

How do I connect MCP Server Python to Claude for Desktop?

Run the server with python server.py, then in Claude for Desktop settings go to the MCP server section and add the local server (configure URL/port as needed).

Does MCP Server Python require an API key for weather?

Yes. You must modify server.py to set your API key in the fetch_weather function before the weather tool works.

Frequently asked questions

What tools does MCP Server Python provide?

It provides two tools: `calculate_bmi` (calculates BMI from height and weight) and `fetch_weather` (retrieves weather for a given city, requiring an API key).

What are the prerequisites to run MCP Server Python?

You need Python 3.9 or higher, pip, httpx, and the MCP Python SDK (installed via `pip install mcp httpx`).

How do I connect MCP Server Python to Cursor?

Create an `mcp.json` file in the project root with the command `mcp run /path/to/server.py`. Claude in Cursor will automatically recognize the tools.

How do I connect MCP Server Python to Claude for Desktop?

Run the server with `python server.py`, then in Claude for Desktop settings go to the MCP server section and add the local server (configure URL/port as needed).

Does MCP Server Python require an API key for weather?

Yes. You must modify `server.py` to set your API key in the `fetch_weather` function before the weather tool works.
