Authorised Territory demonstrates how to build a .NET Model Context Protocol (MCP) server over HTTP that scans for unsafe tools on startup, using the Microsoft.AgentGovernance.Extensions.ModelContextProtocol NuGet package, and pairs it with a simple .NET console client that connects to the server.

Overview

The video walks through creating:

A .NET MCP server using HTTP transport.
A startup-time tool safety scan to detect/flag unsafe tools before the server accepts connections.
A .NET console app client that attempts to connect to the MCP server.

Technologies referenced

.NET / C#
Model Context Protocol (MCP)
NuGet package: Microsoft.AgentGovernance.Extensions.ModelContextProtocol
HTTP transport for MCP communication

What the build includes

MCP server project setup
Tool scanning behavior executed on server startup
Console client project setup and connection attempt to the MCP server
