The core FrontMCP framework for building MCP servers and clients in TypeScript.

[![NPM](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/@frontmcp/sdk.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@frontmcp/sdk)

## Install

```bash
npm install @frontmcp/sdk
```

> Most users should scaffold with `npx frontmcp create my-app` instead of installing manually. See [Installation][docs-install].

## Features

- **`@FrontMcp` server** — single decorator configures info, apps, HTTP, logging, session, auth ([docs][docs-server])
- **`@App`** — group tools, resources, prompts into isolated domains ([docs][docs-apps])
- **`@Tool`** — typed actions with Zod input schemas, class or function style ([docs][docs-tools])
- **`@Resource`** — read-only data with static and template URIs ([docs][docs-resources])
- **`@Prompt`** — reusable message templates returning `GetPromptResult` ([docs][docs-prompts])
- **`@Agent`** — orchestrated multi-step tool chains ([docs][docs-agents])
- **Elicitation** — request structured user input mid-flow ([docs][docs-elicitation])
- **Skills** — HTTP-discoverable tool manifests for agent marketplaces ([docs][docs-skills])
- **5 context classes** — `ToolContext`, `ResourceContext`, `PromptContext`, `AgentContext`, `HookContext`
- **Direct client** — `create()`, `connect()`, `connectOpenAI()`, `connectClaude()`, `connectLangChain()`, `connectVercelAI()` ([docs][docs-direct])
- **Authentication** — Remote OAuth, Local OAuth, JWKS, DCR, per-app auth surfaces ([docs][docs-auth])
- **Sessions** — stateful / stateless modes, JWT or UUID transport IDs
- **Hooks** — tool, list-tools, HTTP, resource, prompt hook families ([docs][docs-hooks])
- **Ext-Apps** — mount external MCP servers as sub-apps ([docs][docs-ext-apps])
- **Providers / DI** — scoped injection with GLOBAL and CONTEXT scopes ([docs][docs-providers])
- **ConfigPlugin** — load `frontmcp.yaml` / `frontmcp.json` config files ([docs][docs-config])
- **Transport** — Streamable HTTP + SSE ([docs][docs-transport])

## Quick Example

```ts
import 'reflect-metadata';
import { FrontMcp, App, Tool } from '@frontmcp/sdk';
import { z } from 'zod';

@Tool({ name: 'greet', inputSchema: { name: z.string() } })
class GreetTool {
  async execute({ name }: { name: string }) {
    return `Hello, ${name}!`;
  }
}

@App({ id: 'hello', name: 'Hello', tools: [GreetTool] })
class HelloApp {}

@FrontMcp({ info: { name: 'Demo', version: '0.1.0' }, apps: [HelloApp], http: { port: 3000 } })
export default class Server {}
```
