langchain4j-mcp-server-patterns
Provides LangChain4j patterns for implementing MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, creating Java AI tools, exposing tool calling capabilities, and integrating MCP clients with AI services. Use when building a Java MCP server, implementing tool calling in Java, connecting LangChain4j to external MCP servers, or securing tool exposure for agent workflows.

# LangChain4j MCP Server Implementation Patterns ## Overview Use this skill to design and implement Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations with LangChain4j. The main concerns are: - defining a clean tool, resource, and prompt surface - choosing the right transport and bootstrap model - filtering unsafe capabilities before exposing them to agents or applications Keep `SKILL.md` focused on the implementation flow. Use the bundled references for expanded examples and API-level detail. ## When to Use Use this skill when: - building a Java MCP server that exposes tools, resources, or prompts - integrating LangChain4j with one or more external MCP servers - wiring MCP support into a Spring Boot application - filtering available tools by tenant, user role, or runtime context - adding observability, resilience, and safe failure handling around MCP interactions - reviewing an MCP integration for prompt-injection and side-effect risks Typical trigger phrases include `langchain4j mcp`, `java mcp server`, `mcp tool provider`, `spring boot mcp`, and `connect langchain4j to mcp`. ## Instructions ### 1. Design the MCP surface before writing code Decide what the server should expose: - tools fo

- Instructions
- 1. Design the MCP surface before writing code
- 2. Implement providers with narrow responsibilities
- 3. Choose the transport intentionally
- 4. Bridge MCP into LangChain4j carefully
- 5. Add resilience and security controls
- 6. Validate the full workflow
- Examples
- Example 1: Minimal tool provider and stdio server bootstrap
- Example 2: Expose MCP tools to a LangChain4j AI service with filtering

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill langchain4j-mcp-server-patterns-giuseppe-trisciuogli-developer-k --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
