MCP Server generated by mcp.ag2.ai

Installation

Add the following to your MCP client configuration file.

Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ag2-mcp-servers-e-commerce-api": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": [
        "mcp_server/main.py",
        "stdio"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CONFIG": "{\"key\":\"value\"}",
        "SECURITY": "YOUR_SECURITY_PARAMS",
        "CONFIG_PATH": "path/to/config.json"
      }
    }
  }
}

You run an MCP server to expose a structured API surface for client applications to consume Model Context Protocol data. This server hosts the MCP endpoints locally or remotely, enabling clients to interact with your model and context data in a consistent, portable way.

How to use

You connect an MCP client to the server by starting the MCP server in stdio mode and then directing the client to communicate through the established standard input/output channel. Use the server as the backend for local development, testing, and integration with tooling that understands MCP.

Start the server in stdio mode to begin handling MCP requests from a client. You can pass configuration through environment variables if needed, such as providing a JSON configuration string or a path to a configuration file.

If you need to customize behavior, you can provide environment-based configuration by setting CONFIG_PATH to a JSON file, or set CONFIG to a JSON string directly. You may also set SECURITY related parameters to control access as needed.

How to install

Prerequisites: Python 3.9 or newer, a working Python environment with pip, and uv if you prefer an alternative installer.

Clone the project repository and move into the project directory.

Install dependencies in editable/development mode. You have two equivalent options:

pip install -e ".[dev]"

Alternatively, you can use uv to run the editable install if you prefer that workflow.

uv pip install --editable ".[dev]"

Additional notes

The server can be started using the standard Python command shown below. This runs the MCP server in stdio mode and is suitable for local development and testing.

python mcp_server/main.py stdio

Configuration and security reminders

You can supply configuration via environment variables to customize how the server starts and operates. Useful variables include CONFIG_PATH, CONFIG, and SECURITY for controlling API keys and access controls.
