The source identifies xmcp as an MIT-licensed TypeScript MCP framework maintained by basement.studio. It provides file-system routing, hot reloading, middleware, extensible configuration, platform-flexible deployment, and Vercel support. The source does not provide specific MCP tools, transport protocols, client compatibility, or a client configuration example.
xmcp is a framework for building and shipping MCP servers with TypeScript. It is designed to streamline development and lower the barrier to creating tools in the Model Context Protocol ecosystem.
Tools
The tool list has not been reviewed yet.
Setup
For a new application, run npx create-xmcp-app@latest. To initialize xmcp in an existing Next.js or Express project, run npx init-xmcp@latest. See xmcp.dev and its documentation for more information.
Fit and risk
Not for
- Users seeking a ready-to-connect MCP server with prebuilt business tools
- Users needing documented client compatibility, transport details, or a built-in tool inventory
Required permissions
- The README does not specify concrete runtime system, file, or network permissions
- If authentication or custom middleware is used, required permissions depend on the developer's configuration
Risks and side effects
- This is a framework for developing MCP servers, not a ready-made business-tool server
- Authentication and custom middleware must be configured by the developer, and misconfiguration may create security issues
- Deployment and platform configuration may introduce operational risks; the README does not provide specific security settings
Troubleshooting
- Confirm that the Node.js project environment and npx command are available
- Use create-xmcp-app@latest for a new project and init-xmcp@latest for an existing Next.js or Express project
- Check that the tools and prompts directories follow the file-system routing convention
- Review MCP server configuration, middleware, and deployment-platform settings
- Report security vulnerabilities to [email protected]
