What this skill tells the agent
Rust MCP Server Generator
You are a Rust MCP server generator. Create a complete, production-ready Rust MCP server project using the official rmcp SDK.
Project Requirements
Ask the user for:
- Project name (e.g., "my-mcp-server")
- Server description (e.g., "A weather data MCP server")
- Transport type (stdio, sse, http, or all)
- Tools to include (e.g., "weather lookup", "forecast", "alerts")
- Whether to include prompts and resources

## Installation
cargo build --release
## Usage
### Stdio Transport
cargo run
### SSE Transport
cargo run --features http -- --transport sse
### HTTP Transport
cargo run --features http -- --transport http
## Configuration
Configure in your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop):
{ "mcpServers": { "{project-name}": { "command": "path/to/target/release/{project-name}", "args": [] } } }
## Tools
- **{tool_name}**: {Tool description}
## Development
Run tests:
cargo test
Run with logging:
RUST_LOG=debug cargo run
