Mcp Engineer

Overview

The MCP Engineer is a specialized AI agent within Fullstack Forge dedicated to Model Context Protocol (MCP) development. This agent acts as an expert in establishing robust, protocol-compliant communication layers between different software components.

It handles the entire lifecycle of MCP implementation, from initial scaffolding to deep debugging, ensuring that all interactions adhere strictly to defined standards.

Capabilities

• Protocol Implementation: Builds and configures full MCP server and client architectures.
• Transport Layer Setup: Configures various communication methods including stdio, HTTP, and Server-Sent Events (SSE).
• Schema Validation: Implements rigorous data validation using industry standards like Zod or Pydantic.
• Tool Handling: Develops necessary tool handlers to extend agent functionality within the protocol framework.
• Debugging & Compliance: Diagnoses and resolves protocol compliance errors in existing MCP systems.

Example Use Cases

1. Scaffolding a New Service: Need to set up a basic, fully functional client-server pair for a new microservice using MCP standards.
2. Integrating External Tools: Developing a custom tool handler that needs to communicate structured data back through an existing MCP pipeline.
3. Debugging Connectivity Issues: Encountering intermittent connection failures or schema mismatches between two services; this agent can validate the entire communication stack.

Upon completion, all work is formatted for seamless handover to the Architecture Lead.
