Get a Prompt from an MCP Server

See more MCP Client Examples

Demonstrates Mcp.GetPrompt, which calls the MCP prompts/get method for a named prompt, passing a JSON arguments object and receiving the prompt result.

Tip: Code to parse the returned JSON can be generated with Chilkat's online tool at https://tools.chilkat.io/jsonParse.

import sys
import chilkat

success = False

mcp = chilkat.CkMcp()

#  Connect to a public MCP (Model Context Protocol) server over its Streamable HTTP endpoint.  The
#  Microsoft Learn MCP server is public and requires no authentication.
success = mcp.Connect("https://learn.microsoft.com/api/mcp")
if (success == False):
    print(mcp.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

#  Build the prompt's arguments (pass an empty object for a prompt that takes no arguments).  The
#  prompt name and its arguments come from the "prompts" array returned by ListPrompts.
args = chilkat.CkJsonObject()
args.UpdateString("topic","azure-storage")

#  Call the MCP prompts/get method for the named prompt.  The prompt result is placed in the
#  JsonObject.
json = chilkat.CkJsonObject()
success = mcp.GetPrompt("example-prompt",args,json)
if (success == False):
    print(mcp.lastErrorText())
