Production-Ready MCP Servers in 60 Seconds (Auth, Rate Limits, Audit Logs Included)
A new TypeScript scaffold for production-ready MCP servers has been introduced, allowing developers to set up servers quickly. This scaffold includes essential features such as pluggable authentication, rate limiting, and structured audit logs. It aims to simplify the development process by addressing common production concerns that are often overlooked in tutorials.

- ▪It includes per-client and per-tool rate limiting to prevent server overload.
- ▪Structured audit logs are generated for every tool call and session event.
