Breaking Changes 2.0.0

Endpoint setup moved from config-driven registration to route-driven registration.
Streamable HTTP is the only supported transport.
Server metadata mutators are consolidated into setServerInfo(...).
Legacy tool transport methods were removed from runtime (messageType(), ProcessMessageType::SSE).

Full migration guide: docs/migrations/v2.0.0-migration.md

Overview

Laravel MCP Server provides route-based MCP endpoint registration for Laravel and Lumen.

Key points:

Streamable HTTP transport
Route-first configuration (Route::mcp(...) / McpRoute::register(...))
Tool, resource, resource template, and prompt registration per endpoint
Route cache compatible endpoint metadata

Minimal Security (Production)

Use Laravel middleware on your MCP route group.

Copy & paste — that's it

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

Route::middleware([
    'auth:sanctum',
    'throttle:100,1',
])->group(function (): void {
    Route::mcp('/mcp')
        ->setServerInfo(
            name: 'Secure MCP',
            version: '2.0.0',
        )
        ->tools([
            \App\MCP\Tools\MyCustomTool::class,
        ]);
});

Swagger/OpenAPI -> MCP Tool

Generate MCP tools from a Swagger/OpenAPI spec:

Copy & paste — that's it

# From URL
php artisan make:swagger-mcp-tool https://api.example.com/openapi.json

# From local file
php artisan make:swagger-mcp-tool ./specs/openapi.json

Useful options:

Copy & paste — that's it

php artisan make:swagger-mcp-tool ./specs/openapi.json \
  --group-by=tag \
  --prefix=Billing \
  --test-api

--group-by: tag, path, or none
--prefix: class-name prefix for generated tools/resources
--test-api: test endpoint connectivity before generation

Generation behavior:

In interactive mode, you can choose Tool or Resource per endpoint.
In non-interactive mode, GET endpoints are generated as Resources and other methods as Tools.

Enhanced Interactive Preview

If you run the command without --group-by, the generator shows an interactive preview of folder structure and file counts before creation.

Copy & paste — that's it

php artisan make:swagger-mcp-tool ./specs/openapi.json

Example preview output:

Copy & paste — that's it

Choose how to organize your generated tools and resources:

Tag-based grouping (organize by OpenAPI tags)
  Total: 25 endpoints -> 15 tools + 10 resources
  Examples: Tools/Pet, Tools/Store, Tools/User

Path-based grouping (organize by API path)
  Total: 25 endpoints -> 15 tools + 10 resources
  Examples: Tools/Api, Tools/Users, Tools/Orders

No grouping (everything in root folder)
  Total: 25 endpoints -> 15 tools + 10 resources
  Examples: Tools/, Resources/

After generation, register generated tool classes on your MCP endpoint:

Copy & paste — that's it

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

Route::mcp('/mcp')
    ->setServerInfo(
        name: 'Generated MCP Server',
        version: '2.0.0',
    )
    ->tools([
        \App\MCP\Tools\Billing\CreateInvoiceTool::class,
        \App\MCP\Tools\Billing\UpdateInvoiceTool::class,
    ]);

MCP Tools -> OpenAPI Export

Export all registered ToolInterface classes (via Route::mcp(...)->tools([...]) or ->dynamicTools(...)) to an OpenAPI JSON document using each tool's inputSchema(). Only endpoints configured with ->enabledApi() are included in this export and exposed through POST /tools/{tool_name}. Operations are grouped by endpoint name using OpenAPI tags. If multiple endpoints register the same tool name, the operation keeps first-registration behavior and merges all matching endpoint names into tags. If route registration is missing, the command auto-discovers tools under default paths: app/MCP/Tools and app/Tools.

Copy & paste — that's it

# Default output: storage/api-docs-mcp/api-docs.json
php artisan mcp:export-openapi

# Custom output + metadata
php artisan mcp:export-openapi \
  --output=storage/app/mcp.openapi.json \
  --title="MCP Tools API" \
  --api-version=2.1.0

# Limit to one endpoint (id or path)
php artisan mcp:export-openapi --endpoint=/mcp

# Discover tools from additional directory paths
php artisan mcp:export-openapi --discover-path=app/MCP/Tools

# Existing output is overwritten by default
php artisan mcp:export-openapi

Enable Tool API route generation:

Copy & paste — that's it

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

Route::mcp('/mcp')
    ->setServerInfo(name: 'OP.GG MCP Server', version: '2.0.0')
    ->enabledApi()
    ->tools([
        \App\MCP\Tools\GreetingTool::class,
    ]);

Swagger UI testing tip:

Exported operations use query parameters only (no requestBody) for simpler manual testing.
Required fields from each tool inputSchema().required are reflected in Swagger parameter validation.
Enum fields are exported with schema.enum so Swagger renders dropdown selections.
Array fields are exported with style=form + explode=true (repeat key format, e.g. desired_output_fields=items&desired_output_fields=runes).
/tools/{tool_name} argument parsing prefers query parameters over body/form payloads to avoid Swagger conflicts.
Enum fields without explicit default/example are auto-filled from the first enum value (or first non-null enum value).
String fields with descriptions like e.g., en_US, ko_KR, ja_JP auto-infer first sample value as default and example.

Example Tool Class

Copy & paste — that's it

<?php

namespace App\MCP\Tools;

use App\Enums\Platform;
use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\JsonSchema\JsonSchema;
use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\Services\ToolService\ToolInterface;

class GreetingTool implements ToolInterface
{
    public function name(): string
    {
        return 'greeting-tool';
    }

    public function description(): string
    {
        return 'Return a greeting message.';
    }

    public function inputSchema(): array
    {
        return [
            'name' => JsonSchema::string()
                ->description('Developer Name')
                ->required(),
            'platform' => JsonSchema::string()
                ->enum(Platform::class)
                ->description('Client platform')
                ->compact(),
        ];
    }

    public function annotations(): array
    {
        return [
            'readOnlyHint' => true,
            'destructiveHint' => false,
        ];
    }

    public function execute(array $arguments): mixed
    {
        return [
            'message' => 'Hello '.$arguments['name'],
        ];
    }
}

JsonSchema Builder (Laravel-Style)

This package provides its own JsonSchema builder under the OPGG\LaravelMcpServer namespace. You can define tool schemas in a Laravel 12-style fluent format while keeping inputSchema(): array.

Copy & paste — that's it

<?php

namespace App\MCP\Tools;

use App\Enums\Platform;
use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\JsonSchema\JsonSchema;
use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\Services\ToolService\ToolInterface;

class WeatherTool implements ToolInterface
{
    public function name(): string
    {
        return 'weather-tool';
    }

    public function description(): string
    {
        return 'Get weather by location.';
    }

    public function inputSchema(): array
    {
        return [
            'location' => JsonSchema::string()
                ->description('Location to query')
                ->required(),
            'platform' => JsonSchema::string()
                ->enum(Platform::class)
                ->description('Client platform'),
            'days' => JsonSchema::integer()
                ->min(1)
                ->max(7)
                ->default(1),
        ];
    }

    public function annotations(): array
    {
        return [];
    }

    public function execute(array $arguments): mixed
    {
        return ['ok' => true];
    }
}

Notes:

Existing full JSON Schema arrays are still supported.
enum() accepts either an array or a BackedEnum::class.
compact() can be chained after enum() to remove enum from emitted schema and append a compact hint to description (compact(), compact(null), compact(3), or compact('custom hint')).
Default compact example count is 3, and it can be overridden per endpoint via Route::mcp(...)->setConfig(compactEnumExampleCount: N).
When exporting (tools/list, OpenAPI), property maps are automatically normalized to JSON Schema object format.

Example Prompt Class

Copy & paste — that's it

<?php

namespace App\MCP\Prompts;

use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\Services\PromptService\Prompt;

class WelcomePrompt extends Prompt
{
    public string $name = 'welcome-user';

    public ?string $description = 'Generate a welcome message.';

    public array $arguments = [
        [
            'name' => 'username',
            'description' => 'User name',
            'required' => true,
        ],
    ];

    public string $text = 'Welcome, {username}!';
}

Example Resource Class

Copy & paste — that's it

<?php

namespace App\MCP\Resources;

use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\Services\ResourceService\Resource;

class BuildInfoResource extends Resource
{
    public string $uri = 'app://build-info';

    public string $name = 'Build Info';

    public ?string $mimeType = 'application/json';

    public function read(): array
    {
        return [
            'uri' => $this->uri,
            'mimeType' => $this->mimeType,
            'text' => json_encode([
                'version' => '2.0.0',
                'environment' => app()->environment(),
            ], JSON_THROW_ON_ERROR),
        ];
    }
}

Dynamic Tool Filtering by Query String

If one endpoint needs to expose different tool sets based on the incoming URL, attach a dynamic tools resolver to the route. The resolver owns both the declared tool catalog for the endpoint and the per-request visible subset.

Copy & paste — that's it

use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\Data\ToolResolutionContext;
use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\Routing\McpEndpointDefinition;
use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\Services\ToolService\DynamicToolResolverInterface;

final class LolPhaseToolResolver implements DynamicToolResolverInterface
{
    public function declaredTools(McpEndpointDefinition $endpoint): array
    {
        return [
            \App\MCP\Tools\LolSearchChampionMetaTool::class,
            \App\MCP\Tools\LolGetChampionAnalysisTool::class,
            \App\MCP\Tools\LolGetLiveItemRecommendationsTool::class,
        ];
    }

    public function resolve(
        McpEndpointDefinition $endpoint,
        ToolResolutionContext $context,
    ): array {
        return match ($context->queryParameters['phase'] ?? null) {
            'lobby' => [
                \App\MCP\Tools\LolSearchChampionMetaTool::class,
                \App\MCP\Tools\LolGetChampionAnalysisTool::class,
            ],
            'inprogress' => [
                \App\MCP\Tools\LolGetLiveItemRecommendationsTool::class,
            ],
            default => $this->declaredTools($endpoint),
        };
    }

    public function consumedQueryParameters(): array
    {
        return ['phase'];
    }
}

Copy & paste — that's it

Route::mcp('/mcp/voice/lol/live')
    ->setServerInfo(
        name: 'OP.GG MCP Server - Voice lol Live',
        version: '1.0.0',
    )
    ->dynamicTools(LolPhaseToolResolver::class);

Example requests:

Copy & paste — that's it

/mcp/voice/lol/live?phase=lobby
/mcp/voice/lol/live?phase=inprogress

The same filtered tool set is applied consistently to:

tools/list
tools/call
tools/execute
POST /tools/{tool_name} when ->enabledApi() is enabled

If the same endpoint also uses POST /tools/{tool_name}, you can optionally expose a public consumedQueryParameters(): array hook on the resolver for query keys that should be used only for filtering and not forwarded as tool arguments. This hook is a documented convention and is not part of DynamicToolResolverInterface; resolvers that omit it will forward those query keys as tool arguments.

Lumen Setup

Copy & paste — that's it

// bootstrap/app.php
$app->withFacades();
$app->withEloquent();
$app->register(OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\LaravelMcpServerServiceProvider::class);

Copy & paste — that's it

use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\Routing\McpRoute;
use OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\Services\ToolService\Examples\HelloWorldTool;

McpRoute::register('/mcp')
    ->setServerInfo(
        name: 'OP.GG MCP Server',
        version: '2.0.0',
    )
    ->tools([
        HelloWorldTool::class,
    ]);
