What is an MCP server

Last update:
May 18, 2026
An MCP server is the “provider side” of MCP: it receives JSON‑RPC requests and responds with tools, prompts, resource information, and results. In ColdFusion, an MCP server wraps your CFCs, prompts, and resources so that external MCP clients can use them in their own workflows. An MCP Server exposes ColdFusion components (CFCs) as tools, provides prompt templates, and serves resources to MCP clients.
From an architecture standpoint, a CF MCP server lets you define a clear boundary:
  • MCP clients see only your MCP server surface (tools, prompts, resources).
  • Internally, you can map those to any CF logic, services, and data sources you want.
