Adding Components
The project comes with an example tool in src/tools/ExampleTool.ts. You can add more tools using the CLI:
# Add a new tool
mcp add tool my-tool
# Example tools you might create:
mcp add tool data-processor
mcp add tool api-client
mcp add tool file-handler
Tool Development
Example tool structure:
import { MCPTool } from "mcp-framework";
import { z } from "zod";
interface MyToolInput {
message: string;
}
class MyTool extends MCPTool<MyToolInput> {
name = "my_tool";
description = "Describes what your tool does";
schema = {
message: {
type: z.string(),
description: "Description of this input parameter",
},
};
async execute(input: MyToolInput) {
// Your tool logic here
return `Processed: ${input.message}`;
}
}
export default MyTool;
Publishing to npm
Update your package.json:
Ensure
nameis unique and follows npm naming conventionsSet appropriate
versionAdd
description,author,license, etc.Check
binpoints to the correct entry file
Build and test locally:
npm run build npm link mcp-framework-starter # Test your CLI locallyLogin to npm (create account if necessary):
npm loginPublish your package:
npm publish
After publishing, users can add it to their claude desktop client (read below) or run it with npx
## Using with Claude Desktop
### Local Development
Add this configuration to your Claude Desktop config file:
**MacOS**: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
**Windows**: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-framework-starter": {
"command": "node",
"args":["/absolute/path/to/mcp-framework-starter/dist/index.js"]
}
}
}
After Publishing
Add this configuration to your Claude Desktop config file:
MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-framework-starter": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["mcp-framework-starter"]
}
}
}
