Java & Spring MCP

Set of projects that provide Java SDK and Spring Framework integration for the Model Context Protocol. It enables Java applications to interact with AI models and tools through a standardized interface, supporting both synchronous and asynchronous communication patterns.

Projects

Java implementation of the Model Context Protocol specification. It includes:

  • Synchronous and asynchronous MCP Client and MCP Server implementations
  • Standard MCP operations support (tool discovery, resource management, prompt handling, structured logging). Support for request and notification handling.
  • Stdio and SSE transport implementations.
  • Find more.

The Spring integration module provides Spring-specific functionality:

  • Integration with Spring AI's function calling system
  • Spring-friendly abstractions for MCP clients
  • Auto-configurations (WIP)

Installation

Add the following dependencies to your Maven project:

<!-- For core MCP functionality -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.experimental</groupId>
    <artifactId>mcp</artifactId>
    <version>0.5.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

<!-- For Spring AI integration -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.experimental</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-ai-mcp</artifactId>
    <version>0.5.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

This is a milestone release, not available on Maven Central. Add this repository to your POM:
