Runnable examples

Find complete runnable stdio, HTTP, framework, and authorization examples.

Each application is an independent workspace with its own framework dependencies and process smoke test. They import compiled library exports. From the repository root, install the pinned dependencies and build before running a selected example:

bun install --frozen-lockfile
bun run build
bun run --cwd apps/http-example dev

The repository uses Bun 1.3.14 as a development package manager. Supported Bun application execution starts at 1.4.4; use the supported runtime when evaluating production behavior.

Example	Focus	Default port
stdio-example	A full local MCP server and subprocess flow	stdin/stdout
http-example	Plain Node HTTP	3000
express-example	Node middleware mounted before body parsing	3001
hono-example	Web handlers with Hono’s Node server	3002
elysia-example	Bun/Elysia and a separate protected Clerk variant	3003 / 3007
nextjs-example	App Router with Web handlers	3005
jwt-example	Protected HTTP with JWT verification	3006

HTTP applications have inspect scripts that connect to an already running example. The stdio Inspector script launches a compiled child process. The root dev command starts every workspace watcher and example server, so use a selected workspace when you only need one application.

The protected Clerk flow is explicit: bun run --cwd apps/elysia-example dev:clerk. It requires local keys and OAuth application configuration; ordinary Elysia dev remains credential-free. Its README covers Inspector PKCE configuration.

Use framework recipes for the adapter boundaries and the linked source for complete startup/shutdown behavior. Example code is teaching material, not a deployment or credential-management service.
