 "title": "Have your coding agent build an MCP server for you",
 "page_title": "How to have your coding agent build an MCP server for you with Fastmcp",
 "summary": "Point Claude Code or Cursor at FastMCP's llms.txt so it writes a server against current docs.",
 "who": "A developer who would rather describe a tool than learn the MCP spec.",
 "problem": "Coding agents trained on older MCP code often produce servers that use outdated APIs.",
 "outcome": "A coding agent working from FastMCP's version-matched documentation to write and test your server.",
 "steps": [
  "Give your coding agent https://gofastmcp.com/llms.txt as its starting point",
  "Use llms-full.txt only if your model has room, since it may exceed the context window",
  "See the Coding Agents page for version-matched docs and the optional server authoring skill",
  "Ask the agent to add FastMCP with `uv add fastmcp` and build the server",
  "Review every exposed tool before connecting the server to your assistant"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Read https://gofastmcp.com/llms.txt and build me a FastMCP server (PrefectHQ/fastmcp) that exposes <capability> as tools. Use the current FastMCP API, add type hints and docstrings, and give me the exact steps to connect it to <MCP client>.",

 "time": "20 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Check the version your agent targets: the README lists upgrade guides from FastMCP 2 and 3 and from MCP SDK v1 and v2, so APIs differ across versions.",
