spring-ai-mcp-server-patterns

Build MCP servers with Spring AI using declarative tools, prompt templates, and native Spring integration patterns. Implements MCP servers with Spring AI for AI function calling, tool handlers, and MCP transport configuration. Production-ready MCP server patterns: @Tool functions, @PromptTemplate resources, and stdio/HTTP/SSE transports with Spring AI security. MCP servers, Spring AI function calling, AI tools, tool calling, custom tool handlers, Spring Boot MCP, resource endpoints, or MCP transport configuration. Add Spring AI MCP dependencies (see Quick Reference above), configure the AI model in application.properties , and enable MCP with @EnableMcpServer : Annotate methods with @Tool inside @Component beans. Use @ToolParam to document parameters: See references/implementation-patterns.md for database tools, API integration tools, and the FunctionCallback low-level pattern. See references/implementation-patterns.md for additional prompt template patterns. Use @PreAuthorize("hasRole('ADMIN')") on tool methods for method-level security.
