# Namespace Transform

> Prefix component names to prevent conflicts

export const VersionBadge = ({version}) => {
  return <Badge stroke size="lg" icon="gift" iconType="regular" className="version-badge">
            New in version <code>{version}</code>
        </Badge>;
};

<VersionBadge version="3.0.0" />

The `Namespace` transform prefixes all component names, preventing conflicts when composing multiple servers.

Tools and prompts receive an underscore-separated prefix. Resources and templates receive a path-segment prefix in their URIs.

| Component | Original      | With `Namespace("api")` |
| --------- | ------------- | ----------------------- |
| Tool      | `my_tool`     | `api_my_tool`           |
| Prompt    | `my_prompt`   | `api_my_prompt`         |
| Resource  | `data://info` | `data://api/info`       |
| Template  | `data://{id}` | `data://api/{id}`       |

The most common use is through the `mount()` method's `namespace` parameter.

```python  theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
from fastmcp import FastMCP

weather = FastMCP("Weather")
calendar = FastMCP("Calendar")

@weather.tool
def get_data() -> str:
    return "Weather data"

@calendar.tool
def get_data() -> str:
    return "Calendar data"

# Without namespacing, these would conflict
main = FastMCP("Main")
main.mount(weather, namespace="weather")
main.mount(calendar, namespace="calendar")

# Clients see: weather_get_data, calendar_get_data
```

You can also apply namespacing directly using the `Namespace` transform.

```python  theme={"theme":{"light":"snazzy-light","dark":"dark-plus"}}
from fastmcp import FastMCP
from fastmcp.server.transforms import Namespace

mcp = FastMCP("Server")

@mcp.tool
def greet(name: str) -> str:
    return f"Hello, {name}!"

# Namespace all components
mcp.add_transform(Namespace("api"))

# Tool is now: api_greet
```
