Implements the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) for the XP Framework.

Client
------
Connecting to an MCP server:

```php
use io\modelcontextprotocol\McpClient;
use util\cmd\Console;

// Use streamable HTTP
$client= new McpClient('http://localhost:3001');

// Use standard I/O
$client= new McpClient(['docker', 'run', '--rm', '-i', 'mcp/time']);

$response= $client->call('tools/list');
Console::writeLine($response->value());
```

Server
------
Uses the [xp-forge/web](https://github.com/xp-forge/web) library:

```php
use io\modelcontextprotocol\McpServer;
use io\modelcontextprotocol\server\{Tool, Param};
use web\Application;

class Test extends Application {

public function routes() {
return new McpServer([
'greeting' => new class() {

/** Sends a greeting */
#[Tool]
public function greet(#[Param('Whom to greet')] $name= null) {
return 'Hello, '.($name ?? 'unknown user');
}
}
]);
}
}
```

Run this via `xp -supervise web Test`.

Organizing code
---------------
MCP tools, resources and prompts may be organized into classes as follows:

```php
namespace com\example\api;

use io\modelcontextprotocol\server\{Resource, Prompt, Tool, Param, Implementation};

#[Implementation]
class Greeting {

/** Dynamic greeting for a user */
#[Resource('greeting://user/{name}')]
public function get($name) {
return "Hello {$name}";
}

/** Greets users */
#[Prompt]
public function user(
#[Param('Whom to greet')] $name,
#[Param(type: ['type' => 'string', 'enum' => ['casual', 'friendly']])] $style= 'casual'
) {
return "Write a {$style} greeting for {$name}";
}

/** Sends a given greeting by email */
#[Tool]
public function send(
#[Param('Recipient email address')] $recipient,
#[Param('The text to send')] $greeting
) {
// TBI
}
}}
```

The web application then becomes this:

```php
use io\modelcontextprotocol\McpServer;
use web\Application;

class Test extends Application {

public function routes() {
return new McpServer('com.example.api');
}
}
```

Authentication
--------------
To add OAuth2 authentication to your server, use the following:

```php
use io\modelcontextprotocol\McpServer;
use io\modelcontextprotocol\server\{ImplementationsIn, OAuth2Gateway, Clients, UseSession};
use web\Application;
use web\session\InFileSystem;

class Test extends Application {

public function routes() {
$clients= new class() extends Clients { /* TBI */ };

$sessions= (new InFileSystem())->named('oauth');
$gateway= new OAuth2Gateway('/oauth', $clients, new UseSession($sessions));

$auth= /* Some class extending web.auth.Authentication */;

$server= new McpServer(new ImplementationsIn('impl'));
return [
'/mcp' => $gateway->authenticate($server),
'/oauth' => $gateway->flow($auth, $sessions),
'/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource' => $gateway->resource(),
'/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server' => $gateway->metadata(),
];
}
}
```
