NOTE: This project has been graduated and moved to the
Java SDK for the Model Context Protocol (MCP), providing seamless integration between Java and Spring applications and MCP-compliant AI models and tools.
Overview
Spring AI MCP is a Java SDK designed for seamless integration between Java and Spring applications with AI models and tools compliant with the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
To use Spring AI MCP, add the necessary dependencies to your Maven project and follow the provided documentation for integration with your Java applications.
- Provides synchronous and asynchronous communication patterns for AI model interaction. - Supports standard MCP operations such as tool discovery and resource management. - Includes various transport implementations for different communication needs.
- Integrating AI models into Java applications for enhanced functionality.
- Building chatbots that interact with databases using the MCP framework.
- Creating applications that require real-time data processing and AI model interaction.

Cursor
Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.
.cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"spring-ai-mcp-spring-projects-experimental": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@modelcontextprotocol/server-spring-ai-mcp-spring-projects-experimental"
]
}
}
}Claude Desktop
Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)
{

]
}
}
}Claude Code
Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.
.mcp.json (project root)
