📝 Introduction

SwiftMCP is a multimodal Model Control Protocol (MCP) framework designed to provide flexible and extensible service interfaces for integrating and managing various model services. It simplifies the implementation and deployment of MCP protocol, supports automatic conversion from OpenAPI to MCP, and provides toolchain integration capabilities to reduce the complexity of multimodal model service access.

🛠️ Installation

Prerequisites

• Python >= 3.11 (Recommended: 3.12)
• pip package manager

Install from PyPI

pip install swiftmcp -U

Install from Source

git clone https://github.com/yaqiangsun/SwiftMCP.git
cd SwiftMCP
pip install -e .

🚀 Quick Start

Run serve

Start the MCP service with the following command:

swiftmcp serve --port 8080 --path /mcp

This will start an HTTP server listening on port 8080 with the MCP endpoint at /mcp. You can then access the service at http://localhost:8080/mcp.

Command Line Options

1. serve - Start the MCP composition service (MCP service composition tools will be fused with task tools into one MCP path)

   • --port: Specify the port number (default: 8000)
   • --path: Specify the service path (default: /mcp)

2. splitserve - Start the split MCP composition service (MCP service tools and task tools are in two independent MCP paths)

   • --manager-port: Specify the manager endpoint port number (default: 8001)
   • --manager-path: Specify the manager endpoint path (default: /mcp_manager)
   • --task-port: Specify the task endpoint port number (default: 8002)
   • --task-path: Specify the task endpoint path (default: /mcp_task)

3. openapi2mcp - Convert OpenAPI specification to MCP service

   • --port: Specify the port number (default: 8003)
   • --path: Specify the service path (default: /mcp)
   • --target-url: Specify the target URL for OpenAPI service (default: http://0.0.0.0:10050)

4. mcp2mcp - Proxy one MCP service to another MCP service (Proxy HTTP MCP service to form a new HTTP MCP service)

   • --port: Specify the port number (default: 8003)
   • --path: Specify the service path (default: /mcp)
   • --target-url: Specify the URL of the target MCP service

5. toolmanager - Start the tool management service (Supports tool modification functionality)

   • --port: Specify the port number (default: 8003)
   • --manager-path: Specify the manager endpoint path (default: /mcp_manager)
   • --task-path: Specify the task endpoint path (default: /mcp_task)
   • --mcp-url: Specify the URL of the target MCP service

6. run - Run a YAMLMCP service from a Python script file (Code and configuration are completely decoupled)

   • script: Path to the Python script containing tool definitions
   • --host: Specify the host address (default: 0.0.0.0)
   • --port: Specify the port number (default: 8003)
   • --path: Specify the service path (default: /mcp)

   Example: swiftmcp run examples/split_define_serve/tools.py

🧩 YAMLMCP Usage

YAMLMCP is a subclass of FastMCP that automatically loads configuration from a descriptions.yaml file and provides decorator factories for tool, resource, and prompt, achieving complete decoupling between code and descriptions.

Example

server.py:

import os
import yaml
from swiftmcp.core.split_define.split_mcp import YAMLMCP

yaml_path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "descriptions.yaml")
mcp = YAMLMCP(yaml_path=yaml_path)

# Define pure logic functions (completely clean)
@mcp.tool_wrapper
def add_numbers(a: int, b: int, scale: float = 1.0) -> int:
    return int((a + b) * scale)

@mcp.tool_wrapper
def multiply(x: float, y: float) -> float:
    return x * y

@mcp.resource_wrapper("resource://{name}/details")  # uri read from "uri" field in descriptions.yaml
def user_greeting(name: str) -> str:
    return f"Hello, {name}! Welcome to MCP service."

@mcp.resource_wrapper("default://static")
def get_greeting() -> str:
    return "Hello from FastMCP!"

@mcp.prompt_wrapper
def code_review_prompt(code: str):
    from fastmcp.prompts import Message
    return [
        Message(f"Please review the following code and identify potential issues:\n``python\n{code}\n```"),
        Message("I'm here to help you review the code.")
    ]

# Start the service
if __name__ == "__main__":
    print("Starting completely decoupled MCP service...")
    mcp.run(transport="stdio")

descriptions.yaml:

server:
  name: "MyCompleteMCPServer"
  instructions: "A complete MCP example service: including tools, resources and prompt templates"

tools:
  add_numbers:
    description: "Add two integers with optional scaling"
    parameters:
      a: "First addend, must be integer"
      b: "Second addend, must be integer"
      scale: "Optional scaling factor, default 1.0"

  multiply:
    description: "Multiply two floating point numbers"

resources:
  get_greeting:
    description: "Return a friendly static greeting"

  user_greeting:               # Note: using function name as key since path contains {variable}
    uri: "resource://{name}/details"
    description: "Generate personalized greeting based on username"

prompts:
  code_review_prompt:
    description: "Generate a code review prompt template"

This approach allows you to define function logic separately from metadata configuration, making it easier to modify descriptions, parameters and other metadata without changing the code.

✨ Features

1. MCP Composition

SwiftMCP supports composing multiple MCP services into a single endpoint, allowing you to aggregate tools from different sources.

2. HTTP Proxy

The framework provides HTTP proxy capabilities to bridge local MCP services with remote clients.

3. OpenAPI Integration

SwiftMCP can automatically convert OpenAPI/Swagger specifications into MCP tools, making it easy to integrate existing HTTP APIs.

4. Tool Management

• Dynamic addition and removal of MCP servers
• List available tools from mounted servers
• Support for hiding tools from the main interface
• Dynamic modification of tool descriptions on remote MCP services

5. Multi-Protocol Support

• HTTP transport for remote clients
• STDIO transport for local applications like Claude Desktop

6. Multiple Service Architectures

• Composed Architecture: Dynamically add remote MCP services to the main service
• Split Architecture: Management functions and task execution functions are served by different endpoints
