# Shadcn UI MCP Server A powerful and flexible MCP (Model Control Protocol) server designed to enhance the development experience with Shadcn UI components. This server provides a robust foundation for building and managing UI components with advanced tooling and functionality. <a href="https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/@heilgar/shadcn-ui-mcp-server"> <img width="380" height="200" src="https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/@heilgar/shadcn-ui-mcp-server/badge" alt="Shadcn UI Server MCP server" /> </a> ## Features ### Tools The MCP server provides a set of tools that can be used through the Model Control Protocol: - `list-components`: Get the list of available shadcn/ui components - `get-component-docs`: Get documentation for a specific component - `install-component`: Install a shadcn/ui component - `list-blocks`: Get the list of available shadcn/ui blocks - `get-block-docs`: Get documentation for a specific block - `install-blocks`: Install a shadcn/ui block ### Functionality - **Component Management** - List available shadcn/ui components - Get detailed documentation for specific components - Install components with support for multiple package managers (npm, pnpm, yarn, bun) - **Block Management** - List available shadcn/ui blocks - Get documentation and code for specific blocks - Install blocks with support for multiple package managers - **Package Manager Support** - Flexible runtime support for npm, pnpm, yarn, and bun - Automatic detection of user's preferred package manager ## Installation ### Prerequisites - Node.js (v18 or higher) - npm or yarn package manager ### Claude Desktop Configuration To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config: On MacOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` On Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` ```json { "mcpServers": { "shadcn-ui-server": { "command": "npx", "args": ["@heilgar/shadcn-ui-mcp-server"] } } } ``` ### Windsurf Configuration Add this to your `./codeium/windsurf/model_config.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "shadcn-ui-server": { "command": "npx", "args": ["@heilgar/shadcn-ui-mcp-server"] } } } ``` ### Cursor Configuration Add this to your `.cursor/mcp.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "shadcn-ui-server": { "command": "npx", "args": ["@heilgar/shadcn-ui-mcp-server"] } } } ``` ## Development and Debugging ### Local Development 1. Install dependencies: ```bash npm install ``` 2. Build the server: ```bash npm run build ``` ### Debugging Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector) for debugging: ```bash npm run inspector ``` The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser, allowing you to: - Monitor MCP communication - Inspect tool calls and responses - Debug server behavior - View real-time logs ## Related Projects and Dependencies This project is built using the following tools and libraries: - [Model Context Protocol TypeScript SDK](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk) - The official TypeScript SDK for MCP servers and clients - [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector) - A debugging tool for MCP servers - [Cheerio](https://github.com/cheeriojs/cheerio) - Fast, flexible, and lean implementation of core jQuery designed specifically for the server ## License MIT License - feel free to use this project for your own purposes. ## Contributing Contributions are welcome!
