+
+## Resource Basics
+
+Resources represent data or content that can be read by AI assistants. They use URI schemes to identify content.
+
+```typescript
+{
+  "uri": "file:///path/to/resource",
+  "name": "Human-readable name",
+  "description": "What this resource contains",
+  "mimeType": "application/json"
+}
+```
+
+## Common URI Schemes
+
+### File URIs
+
+```typescript
+{
+  "uri": "file:///config/settings.json",
+  "name": "Application Settings",
+  "mimeType": "application/json"
+}
+
+{
+  "uri": "file:///docs/README.md",
+  "name": "README Documentation",
+  "mimeType": "text/markdown"
+}
+```
+
+### Custom Schemes
+
+```typescript
+// Database resources
+{
+  "uri": "db://users/schema",
+  "name": "Users Table Schema",
+  "mimeType": "text/plain"
+}
+
+// API resources
+{
+  "uri": "api://v1/status",
+  "name": "API Status",
+  "mimeType": "application/json"
+}
+
+// Git resources
+{
+  "uri": "git://main/commits",
+  "name": "Recent Commits",
+  "mimeType": "text/plain"
+}
+```
+
+## Resource Templates
+
+Templates allow dynamic URIs with parameters.
+
+```typescript
+// TypeScript
+server.setRequestHandler(ListResourceTemplatesRequestSchema, async () => {
+  return {
+    resourceTemplates: [
+      {
+        uriTemplate: "user://{user_id}/profile",
+        name: "User Profile",
+        description: "Get user profile by ID",
+        mimeType: "application/json",
+      },
+      {
+        uriTemplate: "repo://{owner}/{repo}/issues",
+        name: "GitHub Issues",
+        description: "List issues for a repository",
+        mimeType: "application/json",
+      },
+    ],
+  };
+});
+
+// Handle templated URIs in read_resource
+server.setRequestHandler(ReadResourceRequestSchema, async (request) => {
+  const uri = request.params.uri;
+
+  // Parse user profile URI
+  const userMatch = uri.match(/^user:\/\/([^/]+)\/profile$/);
+  if (userMatch) {
+    const userId = userMatch[1];
+    const profile = await getUserProfile(userId);
+    return {
+      contents: [
+        {
+          uri,
+          mimeType: "application/json",
+          text: JSON.stringify(profile, null, 2),
+        },
+      ],
+    };
+  }
+
+  // Parse GitHub issues URI
+  const repoMatch = uri.match(/^repo:\/\/([^/]+)\/([^/]+)\/issues$/);
+  if (repoMatch) {
+    const [, owner, repo] = repoMatch;
+    const issues = await fetchGitHubIssues(owner, repo);
+    return {
+      contents: [
+        {
+          uri,
+          mimeType: "application/json",
+          text: JSON.stringify(issues, null, 2),
+        },
+      ],
+    };
+  }
+
+  throw new Error(`Unknown resource: ${uri}`);
+});
+```
+
+```python
+# Python
+@app.list_resource_templates()
+async def list_resource_templates() -> list[ResourceTemplate]:
+    return [
+        ResourceTemplate(
+            uriTemplate="user://{user_id}/profile",
+            name="User Profile",
+            description="Get user profile by ID",
+            mimeType="application/json",
+        )
+    ]
+
+@app.read_resource()
+async def read_resource(uri: str) -> str:
+    # Parse template URI
+    import re
+
+    match = re.match(r'^user://([^/]+)/profile$', uri)
+    if match:
+        user_id = match.group(1)
+        profile = await get_user_profile(user_id)
+        return json.dumps(profile, indent=2)
+
+    raise ValueError(f"Unknown resource: {uri}")
+```
+
+## Content Types
+
+### Text Content
+
+```typescript
+{
+  "uri": "file:///data.txt",
+  "mimeType": "text/plain",
+  "text": "The content of the file"
+}
+```
+
+### JSON Content
+
+```typescript
+{
+  "uri": "api://status",
+  "mimeType": "application/json",
+  "text": JSON.stringify({
+    "status": "ok",
+    "uptime": 12345
+  }, null, 2)
+}
+```
+
+### Binary Content (Base64)
+
+```typescript
+{
+  "uri": "file:///image.png",
+  "mimeType": "image/png",
+  "blob": "base64-encoded-data-here"
+}
+```
+
+### Markdown Content
+
+```typescript
+{
+  "uri": "docs://api-reference",
+  "mimeType": "text/markdown",
+  "text": "# API Reference\n\n## Endpoints\n..."
+}
+```
+
+## Implementation Patterns
+
+### File System Resources
+
+```typescript
+import * as fs from "fs/promises";
+import * as path from "path";
+
+const ALLOWED_DIR = "/path/to/allowed/directory";
+
+server.setRequestHandler(ListResourcesRequestSchema, async () => {
+  const files = await fs.readdir(ALLOWED_DIR);
+
+  return {
+    resources: files.map((file) => ({
+      uri: `file:///${file}`,
+      name: file,
+      description: `File: ${file}`,
+      mimeType: getMimeType(file),
+    })),
+  };
+});
+
+server.setRequestHandler(ReadResourceRequestSchema, async (request) => {
+  const uri = request.params.uri;
+
+  if (uri.startsWith("file:///")) {
+    const filename = uri.slice(8); // Remove "file:///"
+    const safePath = path.resolve(ALLOWED_DIR, filename);
+
+    // Security: ensure path is within allowed directory
+    if (!safePath.startsWith(ALLOWED_DIR)) {
+      throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, "Access denied");
+    }
+
+    const content = await fs.readFile(safePath, "utf-8");
+
+    return {
+      contents: [
+        {
+          uri,
+          mimeType: getMimeType(filename),
+          text: content,
+        },
+      ],
+    };
+  }
+
+  throw new Error(`Unknown resource: ${uri}`);
+});
+```
+
+### Database Resources
+
+```python
+@app.list_resources()
+async def list_resources() -> list[Resource]:
+    tables = await db.get_tables()
+
+    return [
+        Resource(
+            uri=f"db://{table}/schema",
+            name=f"{table} Schema",
+            description=f"Schema for {table} table",
+            mimeType="text/plain",
+        )
+        for table in tables
+    ]
+
+@app.read_resource()
+async def read_resource(uri: str) -> str:
+    if uri.startswith("db://"):
+        parts = uri[5:].split("/")
+        table = parts[0]
+        resource_type = parts[1] if len(parts) > 1 else "data"
+
+        if resource_type == "schema":
+            schema = await db.get_schema(table)
+            return schema
+
+        if resource_type == "data":
+            rows = await db.query(f"SELECT * FROM {table} LIMIT 100")
+            return json.dumps(rows, indent=2)
+
+    raise ValueError(f"Unknown resource: {uri}")
+```
+
+### API Resources
+
+```typescript
+server.setRequestHandler(ListResourcesRequestSchema, async () => {
+  return {
+    resources: [
+      {
+        uri: "api://v1/status",
+        name: "API Status",
+        mimeType: "application/json",
+      },
+      {
+        uri: "api://v1/metrics",
+        name: "API Metrics",
+        mimeType: "application/json",
+      },
+    ],
+  };
+});
+
+server.setRequestHandler(ReadResourceRequestSchema, async (request) => {
+  const uri = request.params.uri;
+
+  if (uri === "api://v1/status") {
+    const status = await checkApiStatus();
+    return {
+      contents: [
+        {
+          uri,
+          mimeType: "application/json",
+          text: JSON.stringify(status, null, 2),
+        },
+      ],
+    };
+  }
+
+  if (uri === "api://v1/metrics") {
+    const metrics = await collectMetrics();
+    return {
+      contents: [
+        {
+          uri,
+          mimeType: "application/json",
+          text: JSON.stringify(metrics, null, 2),
+        },
+      ],
+    };
+  }
+
+  throw new Error(`Unknown resource: ${uri}`);
+});
+```
+
+### Git Repository Resources
+
+```python
+import git
+
+@app.list_resources()
+async def list_resources() -> list[Resource]:
+    return [
+        Resource(
+            uri="git://log",
+            name="Git Log",
+            description="Recent commits",
+            mimeType="text/plain",
+        ),
+        Resource(
+            uri="git://status",
+            name="Git Status",
+            description="Working tree status",
+            mimeType="text/plain",
+        ),
+    ]
+
+@app.read_resource()
+async def read_resource(uri: str) -> str:
+    repo = git.Repo(".")
+
+    if uri == "git://log":
+        log = repo.git.log("--oneline", "-n", "10")
+        return log
+
+    if uri == "git://status":
+        status = repo.git.status()
+        return status
+
+    raise ValueError(f"Unknown resource: {uri}")
+```
+
+## Resource Subscriptions
+
+Allow clients to subscribe to resource updates.
+
+```typescript
+// Declare subscription capability
+const server = new Server(
+  { name: "example", version: "1.0.0" },
+  {
+    capabilities: {
+      resources: {
+        subscribe: true,
+        listChanged: true,
+      },
+    },
+  }
+);
+
+// Track subscriptions
+const subscriptions = new Set<string>();
+
+server.setRequestHandler(SubscribeRequestSchema, async (request) => {
+  subscriptions.add(request.params.uri);
+  return {};
+});
+
+server.setRequestHandler(UnsubscribeRequestSchema, async (request) => {
+  subscriptions.delete(request.params.uri);
+  return {};
+});
+
+// Notify subscribers when resource changes
+async function notifyResourceUpdate(uri: string) {
+  if (subscriptions.has(uri)) {
+    await server.notification({
+      method: "notifications/resources/updated",
+      params: { uri },
+    });
+  }
+}
+
+// Example: file watcher
+const watcher = fs.watch(WATCHED_DIR, async (event, filename) => {
+  if (event === "change") {
+    const uri = `file:///${filename}`;
+    await notifyResourceUpdate(uri);
+  }
+});
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. URI Design
+
+```typescript
+// Good: Hierarchical and descriptive
+"db://users/schema"
+"db://users/data"
+"api://v1/endpoints/users"
+"file:///config/app.json"
+
+// Bad: Flat and ambiguous
+"db1"
+"data"
+"config"
+```
+
+### 2. MIME Types
+
+```typescript
+function getMimeType(filename: string): string {
+  const ext = filename.split(".").pop()?.toLowerCase();
+
+  const mimeTypes: Record<string, string> = {
+    json: "application/json",
+    txt: "text/plain",
+    md: "text/markdown",
+    html: "text/html",
+    xml: "application/xml",
+    csv: "text/csv",
+    png: "image/png",
+    jpg: "image/jpeg",
+    pdf: "application/pdf",
+  };
+
+  return mimeTypes[ext || ""] || "application/octet-stream";
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Security
+
+```python
+def is_safe_path(base_dir: str, path: str) -> bool:
+    """Ensure path doesn't escape base directory"""
+    base = os.path.abspath(base_dir)
+    target = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(base_dir, path))
+    return target.startswith(base)
+
+@app.read_resource()
+async def read_resource(uri: str) -> str:
+    if uri.startswith("file:///"):
+        path = uri[8:]
+        if not is_safe_path(ALLOWED_DIR, path):
+            raise ValueError("Access denied")
+
+        full_path = os.path.join(ALLOWED_DIR, path)
+        with open(full_path) as f:
+            return f.read()
+```
+
+### 4. Caching
+
+```typescript
+const resourceCache = new Map<string, { content: string; timestamp: number }>();
+const CACHE_TTL = 60000; // 1 minute
+
+server.setRequestHandler(ReadResourceRequestSchema, async (request) => {
+  const uri = request.params.uri;
+  const now = Date.now();
+
+  // Check cache
+  const cached = resourceCache.get(uri);
+  if (cached && now - cached.timestamp < CACHE_TTL) {
+    return {
+      contents: [{ uri, mimeType: "application/json", text: cached.content }],
+    };
+  }
+
+  // Fetch and cache
+  const content = await fetchResource(uri);
+  resourceCache.set(uri, { content, timestamp: now });
+
+  return {
+    contents: [{ uri, mimeType: "application/json", text: content }],
+  };
+});
+```
+
+### 5. Large Resources
+
+```python
+@app.read_resource()
+async def read_resource(uri: str) -> str:
+    if uri == "db://logs/recent":
+        # For large datasets, limit size
+        logs = await db.query(
+            "SELECT * FROM logs ORDER BY timestamp DESC LIMIT 1000"
+        )
+        return json.dumps(logs, indent=2)
+
+    if uri == "file:///large.txt":
+        # Read first 100KB only
+        with open("/path/to/large.txt") as f:
+            content = f.read(100 * 1024)
+            if f.read(1):  # Check if there's more
+                content += "\n\n[Content truncated...]"
+            return content
+```
+
+### 6. Error Handling
+
+```typescript
+server.setRequestHandler(ReadResourceRequestSchema, async (request) => {
+  try {
+    const content = await fetchResource(request.params.uri);
+    return {
+      contents: [
+        {
+          uri: request.params.uri,
+          mimeType: "application/json",
+          text: content,
+        },
+      ],
+    };
+  } catch (error) {
+    if (error instanceof NotFoundError) {
+      throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, `Resource not found: ${request.params.uri}`);
+    }
+    throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InternalError, `Failed to read resource: ${error.message}`);
+  }
+});
+```
