B2Bizzio MCP Server

A TypeScript implementation of a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for B2Bizzio business intelligence services.

Overview

This MCP server provides a foundation for integrating B2Bizzio services with AI applications that support the Model Context Protocol. It includes sample tools, resources, and prompts that can be extended with real business intelligence functionality.

Features

Tools

• get_info: Get information about B2Bizzio services
• echo: Echo a message back to the user

Resources

• welcome: Welcome message and server information

Prompts

• business_analysis: Generate comprehensive business analysis prompts

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18.0.0 or higher
• npm or yarn package manager

Installation

1. Clone or download this project

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   

3. Build the TypeScript project:

   npm run build
   

Running the Server

As a Standalone Server

npm start

With MCP Clients

Claude Desktop

Add the server to your Claude Desktop configuration:

Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "b2bizzio-mcp-server": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["path/to/b2bizzio-mcp/build/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

VS Code with MCP Extension

The project includes a .vscode/mcp.json configuration file for development and testing.

Extending the Server

Adding New Tools

server.registerTool(
  "your_tool_name",
  {
    description: "Description of your tool",
    inputSchema: {
      param1: z.string().describe("Parameter description"),
      param2: z.number().optional().describe("Optional parameter")
    }
  },
  async ({ param1, param2 }) => {
    // Your tool implementation
    return {
      content: [
        {
          type: "text",
          text: `Result: ${param1}`
        }
      ]
    };
  }
);

Adding New Resources

server.registerResource(
  "resource_name",
  "your-protocol://resource-uri",
  {
    description: "Resource description",
    mimeType: "text/plain"
  },
  async () => {
    return {
      contents: [
        {
          uri: "your-protocol://resource-uri",
          mimeType: "text/plain",
          text: "Resource content"
        }
      ]
    };
  }
);

Adding New Prompts

server.prompt(
  "prompt_name",
  "Prompt description",
  {
    param1: z.string().describe("Parameter description")
  },
  async ({ param1 }, extra) => {
    return {
      description: `Generated prompt for ${param1}`,
      messages: [
        {
          role: "user",
          content: {
            type: "text",
            text: `Your prompt text here with ${param1}`
          }
        }
      ]
    };
  }
);

Testing

You can test the server using the MCP Inspector:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node build/index.js

Architecture

This server is built on:

• @modelcontextprotocol/sdk: Official TypeScript SDK for MCP
• zod: Schema validation and type safety
• TypeScript: Type-safe development environment

The server uses the stdio transport for communication, making it compatible with most MCP clients.

Security Considerations

• The server runs with the permissions of the user account
• All tool executions require explicit approval from the MCP client
• Input validation is performed using Zod schemas
• Error handling prevents information leakage
