MCP server

Talk to this portfolio from your own AI assistant

This site runs a public, read-only Model Context Protocol (MCP) server - a working demo of a protocol Anupam has written about and lists in his skills. Point Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, or any other MCP client at the endpoint below and it can look up his profile, experience, projects, articles, resources, and contact options directly, instead of guessing from a general web search.

Read-only, no authentication, no state kept between calls. Nothing here writes anything, executes code, or exposes private data - it serves exactly what's already public on this site.

Endpoint

https://www.anupam.info/api/mcp

Streamable HTTP transport (the current MCP transport - stdio servers don't apply here). POST JSON-RPC 2.0 requests; GET returns 405 (this server never opens a server-initiated stream); OPTIONS handles CORS preflight. Targets protocol version 2025-06-18 and negotiates down for older clients. Server name: anupam-portfolio.

  "mcpServers": {
    "anupam": {
      "url": "https://www.anupam.info/api/mcp"
    }

    "anupam": {
      "type": "http",

    }
  }
}

curl (raw JSON-RPC)

Initialize a session:

curl -s https://www.anupam.info/api/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "initialize",
    "params": {
      "protocolVersion": "2025-06-18",
      "capabilities": {},
      "clientInfo": { "name": "curl-example", "version": "1.0.0" }
    }
  }'

List the available tools:

curl -s https://www.anupam.info/api/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":2,"method":"tools/list"}'

Setup syntax checked against the current Claude Code, Cursor, and VS Code MCP docs on 2026-09-23 - if a client has since changed its config format, its own docs are the source of truth.
