McpNet.Transport.Http

MCP protocol handler built on System.Net.HttpListener. Accepts inbound MCP connections over Streamable HTTP and SSE without any ASP.NET Core dependency.

Used exclusively by McpNet.Gateway.Standalone.

Key Type

HttpListenerMcpTransport

// Registered in DI by McpGatewayBuilder
services.AddSingleton<HttpListenerMcpTransport>();

// Called by McpGatewayServer for every /mcp* request
await _mcpTransport.HandleContextAsync(context, cancellationToken);

HandleContextAsync is the single entry point - it receives a raw HttpListenerContext and handles the full MCP session lifecycle (handshake, session, tool dispatch, teardown).

Protocol Support

Method Transport
POST /mcp Streamable HTTP (request/response)
GET /mcp SSE stream (persistent connection)

Configuration

services.AddSingleton(new HttpListenerMcpOptions
{
    Port    = 5050,
    McpPath = "/mcp"
});

No ASP.NET Core

This library uses only:

  • System.Net.HttpListener (built into .NET)
  • McpNet.Gateway (business logic)

No Microsoft.AspNetCore packages are referenced.
