Intended for programmatic or logical use, but used as a display name in past specs or fallback
Optionaltitle?: stringIntended for UI and end-user contexts — optimized to be human-readable and easily understood, even by those unfamiliar with domain-specific terminology.
If not provided, the name should be used for display (except for Tool,
where annotations.title should be given precedence over using name,
if present).
Optionaloptions: ServerOptionsReadonlyserverThe underlying Server instance, useful for advanced operations like sending notifications.
Closes the connection.
Attaches to the given transport, starts it, and starts listening for messages.
The server object assumes ownership of the Transport, replacing any callbacks that have already been set, and expects that it is the only user of the Transport instance going forward.
Checks if the server is connected to a transport.
True if the server is connected
Registers a zero-argument prompt name, which will run the given function when the client calls it.
Registers a zero-argument prompt name (with a description) which will run the given function when the client calls it.
Registers a prompt name accepting the given arguments, which must be an object containing named properties associated with Zod schemas. When the client calls it, the function will be run with the parsed and validated arguments.
Registers a prompt name (with a description) accepting the given arguments, which must be an object containing named properties associated with Zod schemas. When the client calls it, the function will be run with the parsed and validated arguments.
Registers a prompt with a config object and callback.
Registers a resource with a config object and callback. For static resources, use a URI string. For dynamic resources, use a ResourceTemplate.
Registers a resource with a config object and callback. For static resources, use a URI string. For dynamic resources, use a ResourceTemplate.
Registers a tool with a config object and callback.
Registers a resource name at a fixed URI, which will use the given callback to respond to read requests.
Registers a resource name at a fixed URI with metadata, which will use the given callback to respond to read requests.
Registers a resource name with a template pattern, which will use the given callback to respond to read requests.
Registers a resource name with a template pattern and metadata, which will use the given callback to respond to read requests.
Sends a prompt list changed event to the client, if connected.
Sends a resource list changed event to the client, if connected.
Sends a tool list changed event to the client, if connected.
Registers a zero-argument tool name, which will run the given function when the client calls it.
Registers a zero-argument tool name (with a description) which will run the given function when the client calls it.
Registers a tool taking either a parameter schema for validation or annotations for additional metadata.
This unified overload handles both tool(name, paramsSchema, cb) and tool(name, annotations, cb) cases.
Note: We use a union type for the second parameter because TypeScript cannot reliably disambiguate between ToolAnnotations and ZodRawShape during overload resolution, as both are plain object types.
OptionaldestructiveHint?: booleanIf true, the tool may perform destructive updates to its environment. If false, the tool performs only additive updates.
(This property is meaningful only when readOnlyHint == false)
Default: true
OptionalidempotentHint?: booleanIf true, calling the tool repeatedly with the same arguments will have no additional effect on the its environment.
(This property is meaningful only when readOnlyHint == false)
Default: false
OptionalopenWorldHint?: booleanIf true, this tool may interact with an "open world" of external entities. If false, the tool's domain of interaction is closed. For example, the world of a web search tool is open, whereas that of a memory tool is not.
Default: true
OptionalreadOnlyHint?: booleanIf true, the tool does not modify its environment.
Default: false
Optionaltitle?: stringA human-readable title for the tool.
Registers a tool name (with a description) taking either parameter schema or annotations.
This unified overload handles both tool(name, description, paramsSchema, cb) and
tool(name, description, annotations, cb) cases.
Note: We use a union type for the third parameter because TypeScript cannot reliably disambiguate between ToolAnnotations and ZodRawShape during overload resolution, as both are plain object types.

High-level MCP server that provides a simpler API for working with resources, tools, and prompts. For advanced usage (like sending notifications or setting custom request handlers), use the underlying Server instance available via the
serverproperty.
