Turns Django/Wagtail code into MCP tools (and resources) for Claude clients — without
coupling your business logic to any MCP framework.

- **Transport-neutral core.** A registry + dispatcher own `initialize` / `tools.list` /
  `tools.call`; the official MCP SDK is used **only at the wire** (`transports/sdk.py`)
  and is swappable. No FastMCP.
- **Native Django authz.** DRF-style `permission_classes` checked before `run()`; object
  permissions (Wagtail `permissions_for_user`) stay in your service layer.
- **Pluggable auth.** Static bearer tokens *and* OAuth 2.1 resource server
  (django-oauth-toolkit) behind one `Authenticator` interface, with RFC 9728 discovery
  metadata and the `401 + WWW-Authenticate` handshake.
- **On-ramps.** Register a DRF `ViewSet`, expose a model (read-only by default), or
  declare MCP resources.

## Install

```bash
pip install django-mcp-kit              # core: MCP SDK wire transport, OAuth, DRF on-ramp, singleserver
pip install "django-mcp-kit[wagtail]"   # + the optional Wagtail admin settings page
```

> Batteries included. The MCP SDK + `uvicorn` (the only wire transport today),
> django-oauth-toolkit (OAuth resource server), DRF (the ViewSet/model on-ramp), and
> `singleserver` are all core dependencies — their imports stay lazy/contained, so the
> architectural boundary holds in code even though the packages ship by default. The one
> optional extra is **`[wagtail]`**, for the Wagtail admin settings page (Django-only
> projects don't need Wagtail).
