+# Hono Remote MCP Server Example
+
+This example demonstrates how to build a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server using [Hono](https://hono.dev/), a lightweight web framework, and deploy it to Vercel. The server exposes mathematical operation tools (add, subtract, multiply, divide) that can be consumed by MCP clients.
+
+## Demo
+
+To connect your MCP client to the server, use: [https://hono-mcp-demo.vercel.app/mcp](https://hono-mcp-demo.vercel.app/mcp)
+
+You can also visit [https://hono-mcp-demo.vercel.app](https://hono-mcp-demo.vercel.app) in your browser.
+
+## What is MCP?
+
+The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to Large Language Models (LLMs). This example shows how to create an MCP server that exposes tools as HTTP endpoints.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Math Operations**: Four basic calculator tools (add, subtract, multiply, divide)
+- **MCP Handler**: Uses `mcp-handler` library for easy MCP server creation
+- **Type Safety**: Built with TypeScript and Zod for runtime validation
+- **Vercel Deployment**: Optimized for serverless deployment on Vercel
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- [Vercel CLI](https://vercel.com/docs/cli) installed globally
+
+## Development
+
+To develop locally:
+
+```
+npm install
+vc dev
+```
+
+```
+open http://localhost:3000
+```
+
+## Build
+
+To build locally:
+
+```
+npm install
+vc build
+```
+
+## Deployment
+
+To deploy:
+
+```
+npm install
+vc deploy
+```
+
+## API Endpoints
+
+- **GET `/`** - Welcome endpoint with server information
+- **POST `/mcp/*`** - MCP protocol endpoint for tool execution
+
+## Available Tools
+
+The server exposes the following MCP tools:
+
+- **add** - Add two numbers
+- **subtract** - Subtract two numbers
+- **multiply** - Multiply two numbers
+- **divide** - Divide two numbers (with zero-division protection)
+
+## Using the MCP Server
+
+Once deployed, you can connect to this MCP server from any MCP-compatible client by pointing to the `/mcp` endpoint. The server handles the MCP protocol transport and tool execution automatically.
