- Provides two simple utility methods (reverse text, uppercase)
- Includes a working client script (client.py)
- Minimal and easy to understand implementation
Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Sample code for Model Context Protocl (MCP) with Server Sent Event (SSE)Command (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Launch the server with the uv command: uv run mcp_server_sample --port 8080 --transport sse. Then run the provided client script: python client.py.
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

}Sample code for Model Context Protocl (MCP) with Server Sent Event (SSE)
This repository is a sample for using SSE server. This server provides two unhelpful methods but this implementation is very simple and useful for understanding how work the SSE server.
This serer implementation is based on official sample code.

How to use
First, you must launch the server with uv command like below. This sample code has standard I/O version but this repository is just showing how to use SSE server then I don't explain the normal version. If you want to know about that please refer to the official code.
$ uv run mcp_server_sample --port 8080 --transport sse
Next, just execute client.py.
$ python client.py
