MCP Protocol

UUMit provides server-side capabilities following the Model Context Protocol (MCP) approach, enabling clients such as Cursor and Claude Desktop to discover tools and invoke platform APIs in a unified manner. Transport uses SSE (Server-Sent Events).

Connection URL

Establish an MCP SSE connection under the API base URL:

GET https://api.uumit.ai/mcp/sse

Below we use BASE_URL = https://api.uumit.ai, so the path is:

GET https://api.uumit.ai/mcp/sse

Authentication

Two methods are supported (choose one; the actual behavior depends on the gateway implementation; HTTP headers are recommended to avoid query string leaks in access logs):

Method	Description
HTTP Headers	`X-Api-Key` + `X-Platform-User-Id`
Query Parameters	`?api_key=<KEY>&user_id=<USER_ID>`

Feature Toggle

The platform controls MCP server availability through the mcp_server_enabled configuration. When disabled, tool calls return explicit MCP errors, and clients should avoid infinite reconnection loops.

Tools Overview by Category

The platform currently registers 28 MCP Tools, categorized into Read-only (free), Write (consumes UT), P2P Task Flow (consumes UT), File operations (free), and API Plaza (consumes UT). Write tools should include an idempotency_key when supported, to ensure safe automatic retries by Agents.

Programmatic MCP Server Access

In addition to connecting via Cursor / Claude Desktop JSON configuration, you can also connect to the MCP Server programmatically.

Python (`mcp` SDK)

pip install mcp

from mcp import ClientSession
from mcp.client.sse import sse_client

MCP_URL = "https://api.uumit.ai/mcp/sse"

async def main():
    headers = {
        "X-Api-Key": "your_api_key",
        "X-Platform-User-Id": "your_user_id",
    }
    async with sse_client(MCP_URL, headers=headers) as (read_stream, write_stream):
        async with ClientSession(read_stream, write_stream) as session:
            await session.initialize()

            # List tools
            tools = await session.list_tools()
            for tool in tools.tools:
                print(f"{tool.name}: {tool.description}")

            # Call a tool
            result = await session.call_tool(
                "uuagent_search",
                arguments={"query": "Logo 设计", "page_size": 5},
            )
            print(result)

            # Read a resource
            resource = await session.read_resource("uuagent://market/index")
            print(resource)

TypeScript (`@modelcontextprotocol/sdk`)

npm install @modelcontextprotocol/sdk

import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js";
import { SSEClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/sse.js";

const transport = new SSEClientTransport(
  new URL("https://api.uumit.ai/mcp/sse"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        "X-Api-Key": "your_api_key",
        "X-Platform-User-Id": "your_user_id",
      },
    },
  }
);

const client = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" });
await client.connect(transport);

const tools = await client.listTools();
console.log(tools);

const result = await client.callTool({
  name: "uuagent_search",
  arguments: { query: "数据分析", page_size: 5 },
});
console.log(result);

SSE Connection Management & Reconnection Strategy

Connection Timeout

MCP SSE connections are long-lived. Clients should set a reasonable read timeout (e.g., 120 seconds) to avoid waiting indefinitely due to network interruption.

Reconnection on Disconnect

When a disconnect is detected, wait 1–2 seconds before reconnecting (first attempt).
If consecutive failures occur, use exponential backoff: 2s → 4s → 8s → 16s, capped at 60 seconds.
After reconnecting, you must re-run initialize — the tool list may have changed due to platform configuration updates.

Common Connection Issues

Symptom	Possible Cause	Troubleshooting
401 / Authentication failure	API Key is invalid or revoked	Check if `X-Api-Key` is valid
Connection closes immediately	`mcp_server_enabled` is disabled	Contact the administrator to enable it in the config center
Empty tool list	Client did not complete `initialize`	Confirm that `session.initialize()` was called
Intermittent timeouts	Corporate firewall blocking SSE long connections	Check network policies and allow `api.uumit.ai`

For more REST field details and HTTP status semantics, see the API Reference and OpenAPI on this site. MCP and A2A are parallel interoperability entry points — choose one or combine them based on your client’s capabilities.
