CkMcp

An optional bearer token for authenticating to the MCP server. When set, it is sent as an Authorization: Bearer <token> header on every request. The default is the empty string.

Read-only. 1 after a successful Connect (the initialize handshake completed).

The maximum amount of time, in milliseconds, to wait to establish the TCP/TLS connection to the MCP server. The default value is 30000 (30 seconds).

If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.

Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.

Possible causes of hangs include:

• A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
• A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
• An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.

The maximum amount of time, in milliseconds, to wait for additional incoming data when receiving a response has paused. This is not a total timeout. The default value is 180000 (180 seconds).

Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: 1 means success, 0 means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages. Note: This property does not apply to methods that return integer values or to boolean-returning methods where the boolean does not indicate success or failure.

The MCP protocol version. May be set before Connect to request a specific version; after Connect it reflects the version negotiated with the server and is sent in the MCP-Protocol-Version header of each request. The default is 2025-06-18.

Read-only. Optional usage instructions provided by the server in the initialize result (may be the empty string), available after Connect.

Read-only. The server name reported in the initialize result, available after Connect.

Read-only. The server version reported in the initialize result, available after Connect.

Read-only. The Mcp-Session-Id assigned by the server during the Connect handshake, or the empty string if the server is stateless. Chilkat automatically includes this session id on all subsequent requests.

When set to 1, all string arguments and return values are interpreted as UTF-8 strings. When set to 0, they are interpreted as ANSI strings.

In Chilkat v11.0.0 and later, the default value is 1. Before v11.0.0, it was 0.

If set to 1, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is 0. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

Version of the component/library, such as "10.1.0"

Calls the MCP tools/call method for the tool named name, passing the JSON arguments object in arguments. The members of arguments are the tool's input arguments and should match the tool's inputSchema as returned by ListTools. For example, a weather tool might be called with the arguments { "location": "Boston, MA", "units": "fahrenheit" }. Pass an empty JSON object (not a null) for a tool that takes no arguments.

On success, the tool result is placed in result. It contains a content array, an isError boolean, and optionally a structuredContent object. Each element of the content array has a type ("text", "image", "audio", or "resource"); for a "text" element the value is in its text member. A typical result looks like:

{
  "content": [ { "type": "text", "text": "The weather in Boston is 72F and sunny." } ],
  "isError": false
}

Note: A tool that executes but reports a failure returns 1 here with isError set to 1 in result (the failure message is typically carried in the content array). The return value is 0 only for transport- or protocol-level failures.

Connect must be called first.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Creates an asynchronous task to call the CallTool method with the arguments provided.

Returns null on failure

Explicitly terminates the MCP session by sending an HTTP DELETE with the Mcp-Session-Id header, then releases the connection. It is safe to call this method when not connected (it simply releases any transport). A server that does not permit client-terminated sessions responds with HTTP 405, which is not treated as an error.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Creates an asynchronous task to call the Close method with the arguments provided.

Returns null on failure

Connects to the MCP (Model Context Protocol) server at the Streamable HTTP endpoint URL in url (for example https://example.com/mcp) and performs the MCP initialize handshake.

On success, the SessionId, ProtocolVersion, ServerName, ServerVersion, and ServerInstructions properties are populated, and Connected becomes 1.

If an AuthToken is set, it is sent as a bearer token on the request. The URL must begin with http:// or https://; the host, port, and path are taken from it. Only the Streamable HTTP transport is supported; the stdio transport is not.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Creates an asynchronous task to call the Connect method with the arguments provided.

Returns null on failure

Returns, in json, the complete JSON-RPC response envelope from the most recent request (the jsonrpc, id, and result or error members), for diagnostics and logging. Note that this is the full JSON-RPC envelope, whereas ListTools, CallTool, ReadResource, and GetPrompt each return only the inner result object.

Calls the MCP prompts/get method for the prompt named name, passing the JSON arguments object in arguments (pass an empty object for a prompt that takes no arguments). On success, the result is placed in json, consisting of an optional description and a messages array in which each message has a role and content.

Connect must be called first.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Creates an asynchronous task to call the GetPrompt method with the arguments provided.

Returns null on failure

Calls the MCP prompts/list method. On success, the server's result object is placed in json, containing a prompts array in which each prompt has a name, optionally a description, and an arguments array, and possibly a nextCursor for pagination.

Connect must be called first.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Creates an asynchronous task to call the ListPrompts method with the arguments provided.

Returns null on failure

Calls the MCP resources/list method. On success, the server's result object is placed in json, containing a resources array in which each resource has a uri, a name, and optionally a description and mimeType, and possibly a nextCursor for pagination.

Connect must be called first.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Creates an asynchronous task to call the ListResources method with the arguments provided.

Returns null on failure

Calls the MCP tools/list method. On success, the server's result object is placed in json, containing a tools array in which each tool has a name, a description, and an inputSchema (a JSON Schema describing the tool's arguments), and possibly a nextCursor for pagination.

Connect must be called first.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Creates an asynchronous task to call the ListTools method with the arguments provided.

Returns null on failure

Calls the MCP resources/read method for the resource identified by the URI in uri. On success, the result is placed in json, containing a contents array whose entries carry a uri, a mimeType, and either text (for text resources) or blob (base64 for binary resources).

Connect must be called first.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.

Creates an asynchronous task to call the ReadResource method with the arguments provided.

Returns null on failure

Copies connection settings, including HTTP proxy, SOCKS proxy, bind (network interface) IP address, and TLS options, from sock. This is optional; if not used, default settings apply. Call this method before Connect.

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.
