Welcome to LeanMCP

LeanMCP is the fastest way to build, deploy, and maintain production-ready, enterprise-grade MCP servers. It comes with an SDK so you can build MCP servers fast, and a deployment platform so you can ship them globally without getting stuck on infra and protocol gotchas. Most teams spend weeks debugging these issues. LeanMCP solves them out of the box.

​
Production-Grade MCP Infrastructure

Deploy MCP servers that are scalable at the edge for all your users across all regions. We support every MCP protocol and work seamlessly with all major MCP clients. We handle the hard parts:
  • Auto-scaling - Automatically scales based on demand, no configuration needed
  • Fault-tolerant - Automatic failover, your MCPs stay online even when things go wrong
  • No CPU hogging - Long-running tools run in isolation, never blocking other requests
  • Low latency - Edge deployment across 30+ regions means fast responses globally
  • Multi-client support - Works with Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible client

​
Full MCP Protocol Support

Unlike partial implementations, LeanMCP supports the complete MCP specification:
  • Authentication - Built-in auth flows for secure tool access
  • Elicitation - Interactive prompts for user input during tool execution
  • MCP Apps - Full application lifecycle support
  • All transports - HTTP, SSE, and WebSocket support out of the box
  • Sampling - Let your MCP request LLM completions from the client

​
How It Works

LeanMCP provides two main components:
  1. Open Source SDK - Build your MCP servers with TypeScript decorators
  2. Managed Platform - Deploy directly to our edge infrastructure
import { MCPServer, createHTTPServer, Tool, Service } from "@leanmcp/core";

@Service()
class WeatherService {
  @Tool("Get weather for a city")
  async getWeather(city: string) {
    return { temperature: 72, condition: "sunny" };
  }
}

const server = new MCPServer({ name: "my-mcp", version: "1.0.0" });
await createHTTPServer(() => server.getServer(), { port: 3001 });
