mcp-golang – Build custom tools for LLMs in go
Anthropic released the Model Context Protocol a couple weeks ago - https://www.anthropic.com/news/model-context-protocol. They have official sdks for python and typescript but nothing for go, so I wrote one! The main goal is to provide a low boilerplate sdk to write MCP servers, you can spin up a server which can give an LLM access to weather forecasts like this: https://github.com/metoro-io/mcp-golang/blob/main/examples/g... . Using it here: https://youtu.be/xaMkMl_R-0A The library handles generating all the MCP…

What it does
Write Model Context Protocol servers in few lines of go code. Docs at https://mcpgolang.com . Created by https://metoro.io - metoro-io/mcp-golang

Code ModeNov 2025 · github.com · ▲144I’ve been testing a simple idea inspired by Apple/Cloudflare/Anthropic: LLMs are far better at writing a small program than coordinating multiple tool calls. So instead of giving the model 10+ tools, I exposed one: a TypeScript sandbox with access to the same interfaces. The model writes a script → it runs once → done. What changed - +68% reduction in token use - No multi-step drift or retries - Local models (Llama 3.1 8B / Phi-3) became much more reliable Repo: https://github.com/universal-tool-calling-protocol/code-mode Curious whether others have seen…
mcp-use2025 · manufact.com · ▲581Hi HN, Luigi here. We maintain mcp-use an open-source TypeScript framework for building MCP servers and MCP Apps: https://github.com/mcp-use/mcp-use MCP is now (finally) stateless so we rewrote mcp-use v2 from scratch for the 2026-07-28 MCP spec revision: https://blog.modelcontextprotocol.io/posts/2026-07-28/ Thanks to the rebuild: - Throughput: +27% → from 8,615 to 10,982 median ops/sec - Cold launch: 2.2x faster → from 151.6 ms to 68.1 ms - Clean install: 82% smaller → from 404.6 MiB to 74.4 MiB Benchmark with methodology here:…
An MCP server that gives LLMs temporal awareness and time calculation2025 · github.com · ▲91This is an open‑source Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives any LLM a sense of the passage of time. Most MCP demos wire LLMs to external data stores. That’s useful, but MCP is also a chance to give models perception — extra senses beyond the prompt text. Six functions (`current_datetime`, `time_difference`, `timestamp_context`, etc.) give Claude/GPT real temporal awareness: It can spot pauses, reason about rhythms, and even label a chat’s “three‑act structure”. Runs locally in <60 s (Python) or via a hosted demo. If time works, what else could we surface? - Location /…
FastMCP – A Pythonic way to build Model Context Protocol servers2024 · github.com · ▲6Hi HN -- Since Anthropic announced the Model Context Protocol (MCP) last week [1], I've been excited about giving Claude new capabilities through my custom servers. But while MCP is powerful, implementing the protocol correctly requires a lot of low-level boilerplate code. I found myself wanting something like FastAPI - a high-level framework that would let me focus on building features, not servers. After some hacking, I'm sharing FastMCP: a Pythonic framework for building MCP servers. FastMCP uses decorators to transform normal functions into MCP tools, resources, templates, and prompts,…
- STSimple to build MCP servers that easily connect with custom LLM calls2025 · mirascope.com · ▲57
Hi! After learning about MCP, I'm really excited about the future of provider-agnostic, re-usable tooling. Unfortunately I've found that while it's easy to implement an MCP server for use with tools that support it (such as Claude Desktop), it's not as easy to implement your own support (such as integrating an MCP server into your own LLM application). We implemented a thin MCP wrapper that easily integrates with Mirascope calls so that you can hook up an MCP server and client super easily to any supported LLM provider. Excited to see what people build with this!
I built an MCP server using Cloudflare's code mode pattern2025 · github.com · ▲87Read this article by Cloudflare this morning https://blog.cloudflare.com/code-mode/ the main argument being that LLMs are much better at writing typescript code than tool calls because they've seen typescript code many more times. HN Discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45399204 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45386248 Deno provides a great sandbox environment for Typescript code execution because of its permissions system which made it easy to spin up code that only has access to fetch and network calls. Stick an MCP proxy…
