redop is designed for Bun-first MCP servers.

​
Scaffold a new app

If you want a ready-to-run starter, use create-redop-app: 
bun create redop-app
The generated app includes:
  • redop
  • zod
  • typescript
  • bun-types
  • a starter src/index.ts
  • transport and deploy presets

​
Install the package

bun add redop zod

​
Runtime expectations

  • Bun is the primary runtime
  • Zod is optional but recommended for the best DX
  • the framework currently supports http and stdio transports
If you scaffold with create-redop-app, zod is already installed for you.

​
What you get after install

  • Redop for creating a server
  • built-in plugins like logger, analytics, apiKey, bearer, rateLimit, and cache
  • schema adapter helpers for Zod, Standard Schema, and JSON Schema
  • typed event objects for handlers, middleware, and hooks

​
Common mistake

Do not point npm package consumers at raw src/*.ts files long-term if you plan to publish. Keep your app code in TypeScript, but ship built artifacts when you package redop for npm.
