Most MCP servers I see in the wild start as a quick script and stay that way — no validation, no structured logging, no tests, and a deploy story that means shipping node_modules around.
I got tired of rebuilding the same scaffolding every time a client project needed a Model Context Protocol server, so I open-sourced the template I now start every one from: 🚀 mcp-server-template
It's a production-ready TypeScript/Node.js foundation for building MCP servers that connect AI agents like Claude Desktop and Cursor to your tools, data, and workflows.
