> MULTI-SERVER ARCHITECTURE [COMPOSITION]

▶ SPECIALIZED SERVER COMPOSITION

Compose specialized servers: Git, Filesystem, Database, etc. - Keep scopes focused

▶ COMPOSITION PATTERNS

🎯 FOCUSED DOMAINS

Each server handles one specific domain

🔗 UNIQUE NAMESPACES

Avoid tool/resource name collisions

🤝 CLIENT ORCHESTRATION

Let client combine server capabilities

▶ NAMESPACE COLLISION AVOIDANCE

{
  "git-server": {
    "tools": ["git_commit", "git_status", "git_diff"],
    "namespace": "git"
  },
  "fs-server": {
    "tools": ["read_file", "write_file", "list_directory"],
    "namespace": "filesystem"
  },
  "db-server": {
    "tools": ["query_data", "insert_record", "update_record"],
    "namespace": "database"
  }
}

🎮 LIVE DEMO: CONCURRENT CONNECTIONS

DEMONSTRATION: Claude connects to Everything Server + Git Server + Filesystem Server concurrently
$ claude-desktop
[LOADING] Connecting to configured MCP servers...

[CONNECTED] everything-server
  ├── Tools: echo, add, longRunningOperation, sampleLLM
  ├── Resources: test://static/resource/42, test://dynamic
  └── Prompts: simple_prompt, resource_prompt, complex_prompt

[CONNECTED] git-server
  ├── Tools: git_commit, git_status, git_diff, git_log
  └── Resources: repo://current/status, repo://current/branches

[CONNECTED] filesystem-server
  ├── Tools: read_file, write_file, list_directory, search_files
  └── Resources: file://workspace/, file://config/

[ORCHESTRATION] Client can now combine all server capabilities
[WORKFLOW] Create file → Git commit → Database log → Generate summary

Key Observations:

  • Concurrent connections - multiple servers active simultaneously
  • Namespace separation - no tool name conflicts
  • Intelligent orchestration - client combines capabilities
  • Workflow composition - complex multi-server operations

▶ ARCHITECTURAL BENEFITS

├── SCALABILITY       │ Add servers without modifying existing ones
├── MAINTAINABILITY   │ Each server has focused responsibilities
├── REUSABILITY       │ Servers can be shared across projects
├── FAULT ISOLATION   │ Server failures don't cascade
└── TEAM OWNERSHIP    │ Different teams can own different servers
