MCP Server Development

Key Features

Custom Tool Connectors

Build MCP servers that expose your APIs, databases, or internal systems as Claude tools.

Resource Providers

Make any data source (Postgres, Notion, Google Drive, GitHub, your SaaS) Claude-accessible.

Auth & Permissions

OAuth, API keys, RBAC — your MCP server enforces who can do what.

Production-Ready

Logging, monitoring, rate limiting, error handling. Built to run, not just demo.

Why MCP Matters (and Why to Hire Specialists)

The Model Context Protocol is one of the most important AI infrastructure developments of 2025-2026. It lets Claude (and other LLMs) reliably access tools and data through a standardized interface — without writing custom integration code for every agent. But building production-grade MCP servers is harder than the demos suggest. Here's what we focus on.

MCP Is Newer Than Most Devs Realize

The MCP spec landed in late 2024. Most freelancers have never built one. Most agencies haven't either. We've been building Claude integrations since before MCP existed — when it released, we shipped production MCP servers immediately. You don't want to be the project where someone learns this on your dime.

Production-Grade, Not Demo-Grade

The MCP examples online are all demos. They work on localhost, with no auth, no rate limiting, no error handling. Real MCP servers serving real users need all of that plus observability, secret management, and graceful degradation. That's what we ship.

Tool Design Matters More Than Code

The hardest part of MCP isn't writing the server — it's designing the tools so Claude actually uses them correctly. Bad tool design = Claude calling the wrong tool, passing bad arguments, or ignoring tools entirely. We spend significant time on tool schema, naming, and descriptions because that's what determines whether the agent works.

We Use What We Build

Our internal stack uses MCP servers we built to expose our CRM, our analytics, our docs, and our deployment pipeline to Claude — so we use Claude to run more of our work. We know what works because we live with it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is MCP (Model Context Protocol)?

MCP is an open protocol introduced by Anthropic in late 2024 that lets AI applications (like Claude Desktop, Cursor, or your custom app) connect to external tools and data sources through a standardized interface. Think of it like USB for AI tools — instead of writing custom integration code for every agent, you build one MCP server and any compatible AI can use it.

Why would I need a custom MCP server?

If you want Claude to access your private data (CRM, internal docs, proprietary database) or take actions in your systems (create invoices, update tickets, send emails), you need a tool layer. MCP is the cleanest way to build that layer because it's reusable across Claude Desktop, Cursor, your own agents, and any future MCP-compatible AI.

Can MCP servers be public, or are they always private?

Both. Some teams build private MCP servers for internal-only data. Others build public ones (like Anthropic's reference servers for GitHub, Slack, etc.). We build both — most of our work is private MCP servers exposing customer-specific data with proper auth.

What language do you build MCP servers in?

Python or TypeScript by default — those are the two best-supported SDKs. We can build in other languages if you have stack constraints, but Python is usually fastest to ship and most maintainable.

How does MCP authentication work?

Depends on the transport. stdio MCP servers (running locally) typically use OS-level auth. HTTP MCP servers use OAuth 2.0 or API keys. We design auth based on who needs access — individual user, single tenant, multi-tenant — and configure accordingly.

Do MCP servers cost money to run?

The server itself runs cheaply ($5-50/month on Cloud Run, Fly.io, or AWS Lambda). The expensive part is the Claude API calls that happen when Claude uses the tools — that's metered by Anthropic, not us. We help you design tools that minimize unnecessary Claude calls.

Can my MCP server use Claude's tool-use API too?

Yes — and it often should. MCP and tool-use solve overlapping problems. We frequently build MCP servers where individual tools internally make Claude calls to process their results before returning. That layered approach gives you reusable tools AND smart processing.

Will my MCP server work with Cursor / Claude Desktop / other clients?

Yes — that's the whole point of MCP being a standard. A well-built MCP server works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, custom agent frameworks like LangChain or LlamaIndex, and any future client that adopts the spec.
