Decision brief
Decision-Critical Facts for the Python SDK for Model Context Protocol
Good fit when
- - When you need to interact with the Model Context Protocol through a Python-based setup, either as a server or a client.
- - For developers who are working on pre-release version v2.0.0b1 and require features not available in stable versions of 1.x.
Avoid when
- - When using a different programming language, as this is a Python-specific SDK.
- - For developers requiring stability over bleeding-edge features; as a pre-release tool (v2.0.0b1), it may include experimental or unstable elements.

Installation
uv add "mcp[cli]" # or: pip install "mcp[cli]"
The cli extra adds the mcp command-line tool (mcp dev, mcp run, mcp install) on top of the SDK; install plain mcp if you don't need it. For one-off commands, uv run --with "mcp[cli]" mcp ... works without a project.
