# Building MCP Servers on Cloudflare

Creates production-ready Model Context Protocol servers on Cloudflare Workers with tools, authentication, and deployment.

## When to Use

- User wants to build a remote MCP server
- User needs to expose tools via MCP
- User asks about MCP authentication or OAuth
- User wants to deploy MCP to Cloudflare Workers

## Prerequisites

- Cloudflare account with Workers enabled
- Node.js 18+ and npm/pnpm/yarn
- Wrangler CLI (`npm install -g wrangler`)

## Quick Start

### Option 1: Public Server (No Auth)

```bash
npm create cloudflare@latest -- my-mcp-server \
  --template=cloudflare/ai/demos/remote-mcp-authless
cd my-mcp-server
npm start
```

Server runs at `http://localhost:8788/mcp`

### Option 2: Authenticated Server (OAuth)

```bash
npm create cloudflare@latest -- my-mcp-server \
  --template=cloudflare/ai/demos/remote-mcp-github-oauth
cd my-mcp-server
```

Requires OAuth app setup. See [references/oauth-setup.md](references/oauth-setup.md).

## Core Workflow

### Step 1: Define Tools

Tools are functions MCP clients can call. Define them using `server.tool()`:

```typescript
import { McpAgent } from "agents/mcp";
import { z } from "zod";

export class MyMCP extends McpAgent {
  server = new Server({ name: "my-mcp", version: "1.0.0" });

  async init() {
    // Simple tool with parameters
    this.server.tool(
      "add",
      { a: z.number(), b: z.number() },
      async ({ a, b }) => ({
        content: [{ type: "text", text: String(a + b) }],
      })
    );

    // Tool that calls external API
    this.server.tool(
      "get_weather",
      { city: z.string() },
      async ({ city }) => {
        const response = await fetch(`https://api.weather.com/${city}`);
        const data = await response.json();
        return {
          content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(data) }],
        };
      }
    );
  }
}
```

### Step 2: Configure Entry Point

**Public server** (`src/index.ts`):

```typescript
import { MyMCP } from "./mcp";

export default {
  fetch(request: Request, env: Env, ctx: ExecutionContext) {
    const url = new URL(request.url);
    if (url.pathname === "/mcp") {
      return MyMCP.serveSSE("/mcp").fetch(request, env, ctx);
    }
    return new Response("MCP Server", { status: 200 });
  },
};

export { MyMCP };
```

**Authenticated server** — See [references/oauth-setup.md](references/oauth-setup.md).

### Step 3: Test Locally

```bash
# Start server
npm start

# In another terminal, test with MCP Inspector
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector@latest
# Open http://localhost:5173, enter http://localhost:8788/mcp
```

### Step 4: Deploy

```bash
npx wrangler deploy
```

Server accessible at `https://[worker-name].[account].workers.dev/mcp`
