:rocket: Getting Started

New to MCP? Start here:

1. Pick a client — Claude Desktop or Claude Code are the easiest to start with
2. Install a server — Start with filesystem (universal) or memory (persistent context):

   npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem
   

3. Configure — Add the server to your client's config file
4. Use it — The AI agent now has access to the server's tools

Recommended First Servers

If you want to...	Install this	Command
Let AI read/write files	filesystem	npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem
Let AI search the web	Brave Search	npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-brave-search
Let AI remember things	memory	npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-memory
Let AI understand your code	CodeXRay	npx codexray
Let AI use GitHub	GitHub	npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-github
Let AI browse websites	Puppeteer	npx @modelcontextprotocol/server-puppeteer

Configuration Example (Claude Desktop)

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "filesystem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/path/to/allowed/dir"]
    },
    "memory": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-memory"]
    },
    "brave-search": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-brave-search"],
      "env": {
        "BRAVE_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
