# 📐 MCP Math Server

An [MCP (Model Context Protocol)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server that provides basic arithmetic operations — addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division — to integrate easily with LLMs like Claude.

> Built using the official `mcp` Python SDK and `FastMCP`.

---

## 🚀 Features

- ✨ Claude/LLM-ready math tools
- 🔢 Four core operations: add, subtract, multiply, divide
- 🧠 Designed for seamless MCP integration
- 🐍 Easy CLI usage via `mcp-math` command

---

## 📦 Installation

You need Python 3.10 or later.

### Option 1: From PyPI (once published)

```bash
pip install mcp-math-server

Then run:

mcp-math

Option 2: From source (for development)

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/mcp-math-server.git
cd mcp-math-server

# Recommended: use virtualenv or uv
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

pip install -e .
mcp-math

---

🧪 Usage

After running mcp-math, your server will expose these tools:

🔧 Tools

Tool	Description
add	Adds two numbers
subtract	Subtracts one number from another
multiply	Multiplies two numbers
divide	Divides one number by another

---

🤖 Using with Claude Desktop

1. Download Claude Desktop if you haven’t.
2. Make sure your MCP server is running via:

mcp-math

3. In another terminal, register it with Claude:

mcp install $(which mcp-math) --name "Math Assistant"

4. Claude will now show “Math Assistant” as an available context/tool.

🧠 Example prompt in Claude:

“Use the multiply tool from Math Assistant to calculate 12 × 6.”

---

🧰 Example MCP Inspector Test

You can also test it manually:

mcp dev mcp_math/server.py

Try calling:

{
  "tool": "divide",
  "arguments": { "x": 100, "y": 5 }
}
