# 🐚 MCP Server in Bash

A lightweight, zero-overhead implementation of the [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server in pure Bash — targeting the current **2026-07-28** revision.

📖 **[Documentation site](https://muthuishere.github.io/mcp-server-bash-sdk/)** · 🧩 **[Examples](examples/)** · 🧠 **[Architecture decisions](docs/adr/)** · 🔬 **[Spikes](docs/spikes/)**

**Why?** Most MCP servers are just API wrappers with schema conversion. This implementation provides a zero-overhead alternative to Node.js, Python, or other heavy runtimes.

**Why now?** The 2026-07-28 revision made MCP *stateless*: no `initialize` handshake, no sessions, no server-initiated requests. One line in, one line out — which is exactly the shape of a shell read loop. Bash went from an awkward fit to a natural one.

---

## 📋 Features

* ✅ MCP **2026-07-28** — stateless, per-request version negotiation
* ✅ **Both standard transports**: stdio and Streamable HTTP, from the same server
