Building MPC with Claude.
Best Practices — a Quick Guide.
Before starting you need to gather the necessary documentation to help Claude understand MCP.
1.Visit https://modelcontextprotocol.io/llms-full.txt and copy the full documentation text.
2.Navigate to either the MCP TypeScript SDK or Python SDK repository.
3.Copy the README files and other relevant documentation.
4.Paste these documents into your conversation with Claude.
Another important thing to remember is describing your server.
Once you’ve provided the documentation, clearly describe to Claude what kind of server you want to build.
In this phase it’s important to be specific about:
1.What resources your server will expose.
2.What tools it will provide.
3.Any prompts it should offer.
4.What external systems it needs to interact with.
When you’re working with Claude on MCP servers it’s also a good idea to:
1.Start with the core functionality first, then iterate to add more features
