What the publisher says

From the mcp-better repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

mcp-better — built for 7/28

NONE | GOOD | [BETTER] | BEST

Textbook for AGENTS.md on that scale — honest modern MCP at the BETTER step. (protocol 2026-07-28 — the modern MCP release)

the book is the app is the book

AAIF-verified modern MCP textbook that runs. Rust · rmcp 3.0.x (lock 3.0.1, Tier 1 assessed) · Discover · stamped list cache. Book: textbook/ — what · why · how · doctrine. App: this binary + smokes. Lesson after lesson, version after version — knowledge compounds.

BEST (persistent project DNA for agents — AGENTS.md / FAF at scale) lives at faf.one/agents — one hop up from this textbook.

Dual-package (optional)

We are Cargo. Install is cargo install. npx is a try path. We do not offer npm install as an option.

→ Why dual-package — positioning + FAQ → Full guide (how) — lockstep, publish order, OIDC, score + wire

Skills over MCP (optional · textbook)

One Agent Skill (mcp-better-lab) on the same process as tools:

What is 7/28?

7/28 is a great name. 2026-07-28 is a date. Humans say 7/28. Machines negotiate 2026-07-28.

What to expect

  1. Built for 7/28 — not bolted onto a legacy server (official rmcp 3.0.x / Tier-1 assessed cut).
  2. Honest surface — transport and capabilities match docs and CI.
  3. Roadmap expands the era — versions add road; they do not “become” 7/28 later.

What BETTER means

  1. Protocol honesty — claim 7/28 / 2026-07-28 only for surfaces you implement and test.
  2. Discover-compatible — clients should use ClientLifecycleMode::Discover (or Auto → 7/28), not only legacy initialize.
  3. List cache stamps — tools/list returns positive ttlMs and cacheScope (static catalog → public). SDK defaults are unstamped.
  4. Stable tool order — same process, same order across N list calls.
  5. Transports — stdio (default) and Streamable HTTP (--http) in the same 7/28 era.
