Get Joke MCP Server
Minimal Model Context Protocol (MCP) server (Node.js) that exposes one tool: get_joke.
Setup
npm installRun
node index.jsOr:
npm startTest (without Inspector)
This repo includes a tiny SDK-based client that spawns the server over stdio, lists tools, and calls get_joke:
npm run test:mcpTool response shape
The get_joke tool returns JSON like:
{
"joke": "Why do programmers prefer dark mode? Because light attracts bugs."
