Installation

Prerequisites

  1. Install the server using Smithery CLI:

smithery install parcel-mcp-server --client <your-client>
  1. You'll be prompted to enter your Parcel API key during the installation flow.

The API key is securely passed to the server via Smithery's configuration system.

Local Testing

For local development and testing, the server supports environment variables:

  1. Clone this repository

  2. Build the server:

npm install npm run build
  1. Add to your MCP client configuration (e.g., Claude Desktop):

{ "mcpServers": { "parcel": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/parcel-mcp-server/dist/index.js"], "env": { "PARCEL_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here" } } } }

Note: The PARCEL_API_KEY environment variable is intended for testing only. Production deployments should use Smithery's configuration flow.
