This appears to be a minimal example server built with Smithery CLI that demonstrates the MCP pattern with a simple greeting tool. Based on the source, it exposes a single capability for saying hello to named individuals, with the description hinting at optional pirate-themed variations. It's essentially a learning template or homework assignment (hw3) rather than a production integration. You'd use this as a starting point if you're new to building MCP servers and want to understand the basic structure before connecting to real APIs. The repository shows standard Smithery scaffolding with development and deployment workflows, but the actual functionality is intentionally trivial.
An MCP server built with Smithery CLI
Run the server:
uv run dev
Test interactively:
uv run playground
Try saying "Say hello to John" to test the example tool.
Your server code is in src/hello_server/server.py. Add or update your server capabilities there.
