streamable-http-mcp-server

A Spring Boot–integrated MCP server that implements JSON-RPC 2.0 style MCP endpoints over a traditional HTTP REST approach (explicitly not supporting SSE streaming). It provides annotation-based integration for registering MCP tools/functions and supports tool listing and tool invocation (plus initialize/ping).

Best When

You want a lightweight Java/Spring Boot MCP server using synchronous HTTP request/response semantics for tool calls.

Avoid When

You need SSE streaming, strong documented security controls, or detailed interface specifications for automated client generation.

Use Cases

  • Expose backend capabilities as MCP tools to an MCP client/agent via an HTTP endpoint in a Spring Boot application
  • Quickly integrate MCP tool registration in Java/Spring Boot using annotations
  • Implement simple request/response tool calls for scenarios like utility functions (e.g., weather example), health checks (ping), and tool discovery (tools/list)

Not For

  • Use cases requiring SSE/event streaming or incremental token/tool output streaming
  • Production deployments that need clear published security/auth, rate-limit headers, and well-specified error contracts (not described in README)
  • Integrations expecting first-class REST/SDK/OpenAPI contracts beyond Spring Boot annotations

Known Gotchas

  • SSE/streaming is not supported (readme explicitly states no SSE streaming), so agents expecting streamed/incremental results may not work as intended.
  • Authentication and rate-limit behavior are not documented in the provided README, so agent clients may need to rely on default server behavior or add deployment-level controls.
