MCP Connection Hub

# MCP Connection Hub CLI Quick Start Guide This guide provides instructions for getting started with the MCP Connection Hub CLI. ## Installation Options There are multiple ways to install and use the CLI: ### 1. Docker Container (Recommended) The CLI is automatically installed inside the Docker container: ```bash # Start the container docker-compose up -d # Run CLI commands inside the container docker exec mcp-connection-hub mcp-cli --help ``` ### 2. Host Installation You can install a wrapper script on the host that forwards commands to the container: ```bash # Run the installation script ./scripts/install_cli.sh # Use the CLI directly mcp-cli --help ``` ### 3. Development Mode For development, you can set up a Python environment: ```bash # Set up development environment ./scripts/setup_dev_env.sh # Run CLI directly ./mcp-cli --help ``` ## Basic Usage Once installed, you can use the CLI with the following commands: ```bash # Show version mcp-cli version # Show help for all commands mcp-cli --help # Show help for a specific command mcp-cli tool --help ``` ## Command Groups The CLI provides several command groups: 1. **Tool Management**: `mcp-cli tool [command]` 2. **Configuration**: `mcp-cli config [command]` 3. **System Operations**: `mcp-cli system [command]` 4. **Job Management**: `mcp-cli job [command]` 5. **User Management**: `mcp-cli user [command]` ## Testing the CLI You can test all CLI commands using the test script: ```bash # Make sure scripts are executable ./make_scripts_executable.sh # Run the test script ./scripts/test_cli.sh ``` The test script will run through all major CLI commands to verify functionality. ## Example Commands ### Tool Management ```bash # List all tools mcp-cli tool list # Get information about a specific tool mcp-cli tool info brave_web_search # Enable a tool mcp-cli tool enable brave_web_search # Configure a tool mcp-cli tool configure brave_web_search --param timeout --value 20 ``` ### Configuration ```bash # View all configuration mcp-cli config get # View specific configuration value mcp-cli config get database.url # Set configuration value mcp-cli config set api.port 9000 ``` ### System Management ```bash # View system status mcp-cli system status # Run health check mcp-cli system health # View logs mcp-cli system logs ``` ## Further Reading For more detailed information, see: - [CLI Examples](cli_examples.md): Comprehensive examples of CLI usage - [CLI Development Guide](cli_development.md): Guide for extending the CLI - [Milestone 1.5 Documentation](milestone_1_5.md): Overview of the CLI implementation
