## AI interpretation — verify before relying

FastMCP is a Python framework for building Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and clients that expose tools, resources, and prompts to LLMs with automatic schema generation and validation.

Verdict: FastMCP is a well-maintained, actively developed framework with zero known vulnerabilities. Its permissive Apache-2.0 license and low install friction make it a straightforward choice for building MCP servers and clients in Python 3.10+.
