Using with Claude Desktop

To use the MCP Server Manager with Claude Desktop, add it to your Claude Desktop configuration.

Edit your Claude Desktop config file:

• MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
• Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

Add the following:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-server-manager": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/mcp-server-manager/build/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Usage

Once installed and configured with Claude, you can use natural language commands like:

1. Create a new server: "Can you create a new MCP server for me? I'd like a Python server called 'weather-service' in my ~/Projects directory."

2. Build an existing server: "Please build my MCP server in ~/Projects/weather-service"

3. Install a server to use with Claude: "Install my weather-service server from ~/Projects/weather-service so I can use it with Claude"
