Your Question

Hello. I hope your day is going well. We at Verkada (~2000 employees, ~300 engineers) are considering using MCP with Claude. While Claude Desktop remains an option, we have a Golang-based CLI which we'd like to integrate with MCP. This requires a support for Golang, but the official one seems to only be for JS/TS or Python. Would it be possible to add Golang support, either by incorporating changes like https://github.com/orgs/modelcontextprotocol/discussions/85 or writing from scratch? Thank you.

I've started work on a Go implementation of MCP client/server

It's a work in progress https://github.com/nalbion/go-mcp and not a high priority at the moment - feel free to create a PR or sponsor

@nalbion I would love to contribute on this
