Build and Ship Any MCP Server in MINUTES (Full Guide)

Building MCP servers that actually work in production requires a completely different approach than the localhost examples you see in most tutorials. MCP has evolved significantly - we now have streamable HTTP, real authentication, production monitoring, and platforms to deploy remote MCP servers. This is certainly a step above my last video where I showed how to build MCP servers!

In this video, I walk you through how to build production ready MCPs with a template you can use as a blueprint right now. I'll show you the complete implementation and walk you through a straightforward deployment to Cloudflare step by step. And when I say complete implementation I mean it - authentication with GitHub OAuth, production monitoring with Sentry, following best practices for security, and a single command deployment to production.

I'm thinking of making a follow up video where I cover using my context engineering strategy to create another MCP server based on this template so you can see the full process. Let me know in the comments if you'd be interested in that!
