The framework supports component versioning, per-component authorization, and middleware for cross-cutting concerns such as authentication and logging. It includes a built-in command-line interface for listing, calling, discovering, and installing MCP servers. FastMCP also supports session-scoped state, background task execution, OpenTelemetry tracing, pagination for large component sets, and transport options including stdio and HTTP-based protocols.
FastMCP is intended for developers building agent-compatible backends and structured tool interfaces for large language model systems that implement the Model Context Protocol.
