Understanding Recent Changes to HTTP+SSE by MCP: Streamable HTTP

Understanding Recent Changes to HTTP+SSE by MCP: Streamable HTTP

Anthropic has introduced the Model Context Protocol (MCP), aimed at standardizing the communication between large language models (LLMs) and the “external world” to enhance their capabilities through tool/function support. The idea is that if we can simplify this integration, we can focus on powerful tools rather than custom integration code. MCP is thriving, with new … Read more

Using Streamable HTTP for Real-Time AI Tool Interaction with MCP

Word count: 3443, reading time approximately 18 minutes The Model Context Protocol (MCP) utilizes streamable HTTP to transmit data in real-time over the web, enabling AI agents to interact with web services. It employs a single endpoint and Server-Sent Events (SSE), simplifying implementation while maintaining compatibility with existing web infrastructure, thereby enhancing reliability and efficiency. … Read more

How to Quickly Transform a Regular HTTP API into an MCP Server

How to Quickly Transform a Regular HTTP API into an MCP Server

The MCP protocol, short for “Model Context Protocol,” has shown remarkable momentum since the release of its first version in November 2024. Although it has been around for a short time, it has already demonstrated a “peak from the start” trend. The problems it aims to solve are not complex, but its core concepts and … Read more

With the Streamable-HTTP Protocol, MCP Becomes More Complete

Recently, Crab has been learning about AI Agents, reading some books and purchasing online courses. However, most of them are conceptual or no-code AI Agents, while Crab needs a coded AI Agent, not one that simply configures settings using low-code platforms. What is an AI Agent? The image above illustrates the relationship of AI Agents … Read more

MCP Transformation: Streamable HTTP Leads a New Era in Data Transmission

MCP Transformation: Streamable HTTP Leads a New Era in Data Transmission

In streamable HTTP transmission, the server operates as an independent process capable of handling multiple client connections. Streaming utilizes HTTP POST and GET request methods. The server can optionally use Server-Sent Events (SSE) to stream multiple server messages. This allows basic MCP servers as well as feature-rich servers to support streaming, server-to-client notifications, and requests. … Read more
