Calculator MCP Server
calculator-mcp is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes 16
arithmetic operations as callable tools for use by LLMs within agentic
applications. It contains no mathematical logic of its own. Instead, each tool
is a thin synchronous wrapper that logs its arguments and delegates execution to
the
open-source calculator-lib
package published on PyPI
as calculator-mcp-rubens.
Features
16 calculator functions exposed through an MCP server for consumption by AI agentic programs:
- Two-operand operations:
add,subtract,multiply,divide,power,nth_root,modulo,floor_divide - Single-operand operations:
sqrt,absolute,floor,ceil,log10,ln,exp - Rounding:
round_number(with configurable decimal places)
The following are the supported MCP JSON-RPC 2.0 methods:
- Lifecycle Methods:
initialize,notifications/initialized - Tools Methods:
tools/list,tools/call - Resources Methods:
resources/list,resources/templates/list,resources/read - Prompts Methods:
prompts/list,prompts/get
The following MCP protocols are supported, selected by the client per request:
- Legacy MCP (Version: 2025-06-18):
initializehandshake andMcp-Session-Idsession - Modern MCP (Version: 2026-07-28): no handshake or session
Non-Supported Features
Non-supported JSON-RPC methods:
- Logging & Progress Utilities (e.g.
notifications/progress) - Server-to-Client calls are not supported (e.g.
sampling/createMessage,elicitation/create,roots/list)
