We want to verify the tool contracts, schema names, and parameter descriptions exposed by our FastMCP server from the command line. Which command should we run?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| The response specifies using 'fastmcp inspect' to examine tool contracts. | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Use FastMCP to expose small, typed Django application capabilities to agents. Keep Django as the source of truth for auth, permissions, validation, models, transactions, and business rules. Treat FastMCP as the protocol layer around existing application services.
fastmcp package (from fastmcp import FastMCP) for
new Python MCP work in Django.from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP)
when the project has already standardized on it, needs lower-level protocol
control, or a host explicitly requires SDK behavior.django-mcp-server only when the project needs a Django-native
package that works inside WSGI or declaratively exposes models/DRF APIs. Audit
generated tool contracts and permissions before exposing private data.FastMCP docs track the project's main branch, so re-check current docs when
relying on recently added features or version badges.
