The **MCP Python SDK**<sup>[View Repo](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/python-sdk/tree/d788424caa43599de38cee2f70233282d83e3a34/src/mcp)</sup> helps developers build applications (clients and servers) that talk to each other using the *Model Context Protocol (MCP)* specification.
|
|
It simplifies communication by handling the low-level details like standard **message formats** (Abstraction 0), connection **sessions** (Abstraction 1), and different ways to send/receive data (**transports**, Abstraction 2).
|
|
It also provides a high-level framework, **`FastMCP`** (Abstraction 3), making it easy to create servers that expose **tools** (Abstraction 5), **resources** (Abstraction 4), and **prompts** (Abstraction 6) to clients.
|
|
The SDK includes **command-line tools** (Abstraction 8) for running and managing these servers.
