fastapi_mcp vs anatomy
fastapi_mcp: FastAPI-MCP allows you to expose your existing FastAPI endpoints as Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools. It offers native integration with FastAPI, including built-in authentication using existing dependencies, and preserves schemas and documentation.; anatomy: Anatomy is an Agent Skill that explains a technical idea by having the agent invent a physical machine whose working is the concept, then build it as an interactive isometric figure from dozens of shaded parts. It outputs standalone HTML, a single SVG or React components, and audits its own geometry in headless Chrome.
TL;DR
- You already have a FastAPI application and want to expose its endpoints as MCP tools while reusing your existing FastAPI authentication dependencies and Swagger schemas.
- You want to mount the MCP server directly onto your ASGI app or deploy it separately under an MIT license.
- You are building a standalone MCP server from scratch rather than wrapping a FastAPI app; use FastMCP or the official MCP Python SDK.
- You need an actively updated repository (last push was November 2025).
