+# Multi-Server Routing Example
+
+Minimal example showing how to connect to multiple MCP servers and route tool calls to the correct one.
+
+Spawns two in-repo servers (`server-quickstart` and `mcpServerOutputSchema`), discovers their tools, builds a prefixed routing table, and calls one tool on each server to demonstrate the routing.
+
+No API key required. No external config file needed.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies (from repo root)
+pnpm install
+
+# Run the example
+npx tsx examples/client-multi-server/src/index.ts
+```
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. Spawns each server as a child process via `StdioClientTransport`
+2. Connects a `Client` to each and calls `listTools()` to discover available tools
+3. Builds a routing map that prefixes each tool name with its server name (e.g. `weather-nws__get-alerts`) to avoid collisions
+4. Calls one tool on each server to prove routing works
+5. Cleans up all connections
+
+## Adapting This Pattern
+
+To route tool calls in your own multi-server setup:
+
+- Prefix tool names with the server name when presenting them to an LLM
+- When the LLM calls a prefixed tool, strip the prefix and forward to the correct server
+- Check for collisions if multiple servers expose tools with the same name
