Automatically introspects a FastAPI application's OpenAPI schema and converts endpoint definitions into MCP tool schemas without information loss. Uses the convert_openapi_to_mcp_tools() function to parse OpenAPI 3.0 specifications, extracting parameter definitions, request/response schemas, and endpoint documentation, then maps them to MCP tool definitions with preserved type information and validation rules. This enables LLMs to understand and invoke FastAPI endpoints as structured tools with full schema awareness.
Unique: Performs zero-copy schema conversion by leveraging FastAPI's native OpenAPI generation rather than parsing HTTP responses, preserving Pydantic validators, type hints, and documentation directly from endpoint definitions. This is architecturally different from generic OpenAPI-to-MCP converters that treat OpenAPI as a black-box specification.
vs alternatives: Faster and more accurate than manual tool definition writing or generic OpenAPI converters because it operates at the FastAPI AST level with full access to Pydantic models and validators, not just the serialized OpenAPI output.
Executes MCP tool calls by translating them directly to FastAPI endpoint invocations via ASGI transport, bypassing HTTP overhead entirely. The Tool Execution layer (fastapi_mcp/execute.py) intercepts MCP tool calls, reconstructs request context (headers, cookies, authentication), and invokes the FastAPI application's ASGI interface directly, allowing the endpoint to execute with full access to FastAPI's dependency injection, middleware, and validation stack. This zero-copy architecture eliminates serialization/deserialization cycles and network latency.
Unique: Uses ASGI transport to invoke FastAPI endpoints directly without HTTP serialization, preserving the full FastAPI execution context including dependency injection, middleware, and Pydantic validation. This is architecturally distinct from HTTP-based tool calling which would require network serialization and lose access to in-process FastAPI features.
vs alternatives: Dramatically faster than HTTP-based tool calling (eliminates network round-trip) and more feature-complete than simple function wrapping because it preserves FastAPI's entire middleware and dependency injection stack during tool execution.
Translates FastAPI errors and exceptions into MCP-compliant error responses, ensuring that endpoint failures are properly communicated to MCP clients. The error handling layer catches FastAPI exceptions (validation errors, HTTP exceptions, unhandled errors), transforms them into MCP error format, and provides detailed error information for debugging. This includes handling of HTTP status codes, error messages, and stack traces, with configurable verbosity for production vs development environments.
Unique: Implements error translation at the MCP protocol boundary, converting FastAPI exceptions into MCP-compliant error responses while preserving error context and debugging information. This is architecturally different from generic error handling because it's specifically designed for MCP protocol compliance.
vs alternatives: More robust than generic error handling because it ensures all FastAPI errors are properly communicated to MCP clients, and more debuggable than opaque error messages because it includes detailed error context and stack traces.
Handles MCP protocol version negotiation and feature compatibility with different MCP client implementations (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.). The server advertises supported MCP protocol versions and capabilities, allowing clients to negotiate compatible protocol features. This enables the same MCP server to work with multiple client implementations that may support different MCP protocol versions or optional features, with graceful degradation for unsupported features.
Unique: Implements MCP protocol negotiation at the transport layer, allowing the same server instance to serve multiple MCP clients with different protocol versions or capabilities. Protocol compatibility is determined through explicit negotiation rather than assuming client capabilities.
vs alternatives: More flexible than single-protocol implementations because it supports multiple MCP client versions, and more robust than assuming client capabilities because it explicitly negotiates protocol features.
Manages persistent HTTP sessions across multiple MCP tool calls using the FastApiHttpSessionManager class, enabling stateful interactions where context (authentication, cookies, request state) persists across tool invocations. The session manager maintains client-specific state, forwards authentication headers and cookies to FastAPI endpoints, and handles session lifecycle (creation, reuse, cleanup). This enables LLM agents to maintain authenticated sessions across multiple tool calls without re-authenticating for each invocation.
Unique: Implements client-specific session isolation at the MCP protocol level, maintaining separate HTTP session contexts per MCP client rather than treating each tool call as stateless. Sessions are keyed by MCP client identity and persist authentication context across tool invocations without requiring the LLM to manage session tokens explicitly.
vs alternatives: More sophisticated than stateless tool calling because it preserves session cookies and authentication context across multiple tool calls, and more practical than requiring LLMs to manually manage session tokens because session state is handled transparently by the framework.
Supports both modern HTTP transport (recommended for streaming and performance) and legacy Server-Sent Events (SSE) transport for backward compatibility with older MCP clients. The transport layer (fastapi_mcp/transport/) abstracts the underlying protocol, allowing the same MCP server to serve both HTTP and SSE clients simultaneously. HTTP transport enables efficient streaming of large responses and supports modern MCP client features, while SSE transport maintains compatibility with clients that only support the legacy protocol.
Unique: Implements a pluggable transport abstraction that allows the same FastApiMCP server instance to simultaneously serve both HTTP and SSE clients without code duplication. Transport selection is decoupled from tool execution logic, enabling runtime transport switching and testing against multiple protocol implementations.
vs alternatives: More flexible than single-transport implementations because it supports both modern and legacy MCP clients without requiring separate server instances, and more maintainable than ad-hoc protocol handling because transport logic is centralized in a reusable abstraction layer.
Provides declarative authentication configuration (AuthConfig type) that integrates with FastAPI's security schemes, supporting OAuth 2.1, JWT, and custom authentication handlers. The library forwards authentication context from MCP clients to FastAPI endpoints, allowing endpoints to access authenticated user information via FastAPI's Depends() injection. Authentication is configured at the MCP server level and automatically applied to all exposed endpoints, with support for custom auth validators and token forwarding.
Unique: Integrates authentication at the MCP protocol layer by forwarding credentials to FastAPI's native security system, allowing endpoints to use FastAPI's Depends() pattern for auth without modification. This is architecturally different from generic MCP servers that treat auth as a separate concern — here, auth is delegated to FastAPI's proven security infrastructure.
vs alternatives: More secure and maintainable than custom auth implementations because it leverages FastAPI's battle-tested security patterns, and more flexible than hardcoded auth because it supports multiple auth schemes (OAuth 2.1, JWT, custom) through configuration.
Allows selective exposure of FastAPI endpoints as MCP tools through filtering configuration, enabling developers to exclude sensitive endpoints, internal utilities, or endpoints not suitable for LLM invocation. Filtering can be applied by endpoint path, method, tags, or custom predicates, giving fine-grained control over which endpoints become MCP tools. This prevents accidental exposure of administrative endpoints or endpoints with side effects unsuitable for autonomous LLM execution.
Unique: Implements filtering at the schema conversion stage (before MCP tool generation) rather than at runtime, preventing filtered endpoints from ever being exposed as MCP tools. This is more secure than runtime filtering because it eliminates the possibility of filter bypass through protocol manipulation.
vs alternatives: More secure than exposing all endpoints and relying on LLM prompts to avoid dangerous calls, and more flexible than hardcoding endpoint lists because filtering can be based on tags, paths, or custom predicates.

Unique: Integrates pgvector directly into MCP tools with automatic embedding generation and distance calculation, enabling agents to perform semantic search without managing separate vector database infrastructure
vs alternatives: More efficient than external vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate) for Supabase users because it colocates embeddings with relational data, reducing network latency and simplifying data synchronization
Exposes Supabase database schema information through MCP tools, allowing agents to discover table structures, column types, constraints, and relationships without manual schema documentation. Queries PostgreSQL information_schema and Supabase metadata tables to dynamically generate schema descriptions, enabling agents to construct valid queries and understand data relationships.
Unique: Queries Supabase's PostgreSQL information_schema directly through MCP tools, enabling agents to dynamically discover and adapt to database schemas without pre-configured schema definitions
vs alternatives: More flexible than static schema definitions because it reflects live database state, including recent migrations or schema changes
Enforces Supabase Row-Level Security policies within agent queries, ensuring that agents can only access rows permitted by RLS rules defined in the database. Evaluates policies based on authenticated user context (JWT claims, user ID) and applies WHERE clause filters automatically, preventing unauthorized data access at the database layer rather than application layer.
Unique: Delegates authorization enforcement to PostgreSQL RLS policies rather than implementing authorization in agent code, ensuring that data access rules are centralized and cannot be bypassed by agent logic
vs alternatives: More secure than application-level authorization because RLS is enforced at the database layer, preventing accidental data leaks even if agent code has bugs
