-### Understanding the code
-
-The MCP server implementation uses several key components:
-
-**Hono routing**: Supabase Edge Functions route all requests to `//*`. The Hono app uses `basePath` to handle this:
-
-```ts
-const functionName = 'simple-mcp-server'
-const app = new Hono().basePath(`/${functionName}`)
-```
-
-**MCP server setup**: The `McpServer` class from the official SDK handles the MCP protocol:
-
-```ts
-const server = new McpServer({
- name: 'simple-mcp-server',
- version: '1.0.0',
-})
-```
-
-**Tool registration**: Tools are registered with a name, metadata, input schema (using Zod), and a handler function:
-
-```ts
-server.registerTool(
- 'add',
- {
- title: 'Addition Tool',
- description: 'Add two numbers together',
- inputSchema: { a: z.number(), b: z.number() },
- },
- ({ a, b }) => ({
- content: [{ type: 'text', text: String(a + b) }],
- })
-)
-```
-
-**HTTP transport**: The `StreamableHTTPTransport` from `@hono/mcp` connects your MCP server to HTTP requests:
-
-```ts
-app.all('/mcp', async (c) => {
- const transport = new StreamableHTTPTransport()
- await server.connect(transport)
- return transport.handleRequest(c)
-})
-```
