This is the hello world example from Smithery's official cookbook, built with FastMCP in Python. It exposes a single greeting tool to demonstrate the basics of creating an MCP server. You'd use this as a starting point to understand the FastMCP framework structure before building something real. The source repo includes migration guides for moving from stdio to HTTP transport and examples of session configuration. If you're learning to build MCP servers in Python or want a minimal reference implementation to copy from, this is the canonical first step. The actual server does nothing useful beyond proving your setup works.
