@mingdaocloud/hap-mcp
HAP (Hyper Application Platform) is an APaaS platform launched by Mingdao (https://www.mingdao.com) that helps you rapidly build enterprise-grade applications with no coding.
This is the MCP (Model Context Protocol) server by HAP for seamless AI integration.
🚀 Quick Start with MCP Client (e.g. cursor)
Add the following configuration to your cursor settings:
Option A: Standard Configuration (SaaS Version)
Create or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"hap-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@mingdaocloud/hap-mcp"],
"env": {
"APPKEY": "your_APPKEY_here",
"SIGN": "your_signature_here"
}
}
}
}
Option B: Private Deployment Configuration
For private deployment environments only. Create .cursor/mcp.json in your project root:
{
"mcpServers": {
"hap-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@mingdaocloud/hap-mcp"],
"env": {
"APPKEY": "your_APPKEY_here",
"SIGN": "your_signature_here",
"HOST": "https://www.nocoly.com"
}
}
}
}
Note: The HOST parameter is only required for private deployment environments. Replace https://www.nocoly.com with your actual private deployment server URL.
2. Start Using in cursor
After configuration, true on the hap-mcp tool and you'll have access to all HAP API tools directly in your AI conversations!

🚀 Getting Started
After creating your project:
- Install dependencies using your preferred package manager:
# Using npm
npm install
# Using yarn
yarn
# Using pnpm
pnpm install
# Using bun
bun install
- Start the server:
# Start the stdio server
npm start
# Or start the HTTP server
npm run start:http
- For development with auto-reload:
# Development mode with stdio
npm run dev
# Development mode with HTTP
npm run dev:http
Note: The default scripts in package.json use Bun as the runtime (e.g., bun run src/index.ts). If you prefer to use a different package manager or runtime, you can modify these scripts in your package.json file to use Node.js or another runtime of your choice.
📖 Detailed Usage
Transport Methods
The MCP server supports two transport methods:
- stdio Transport (Command Line Mode):
- Runs on your local machine
- Managed automatically by MCP Client (e.g. cursor)
- Communicates directly via
stdout - Only accessible by you locally
- Ideal for personal development and tools
- SSE Transport (HTTP Web Mode):
- Can run locally or remotely
- Managed and run by you
- Communicates over the network
- Can be shared across machines
- Ideal for team collaboration and shared tools
Running the Server Locally
stdio Transport (CLI Mode)
Start the server in stdio mode for CLI tools:
# Start the stdio server
npm start
# or with other package managers
yarn start
pnpm start
bun start
# Start the server in development mode with auto-reload
npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
pnpm dev
bun dev
HTTP Transport (Web Mode)
Start the server in HTTP mode for web applications:
# Start the HTTP server
npm run start:http
# or
yarn start:http
pnpm start:http
bun start:http
# Start the HTTP server in development mode with auto-reload
npm run dev:http
# or
yarn dev:http
pnpm dev:http
bun dev:http
By default, the HTTP server runs on port 3001. You can change this by setting the PORT environment variable:
# Start the HTTP server on a custom port
PORT=8080 npm run start:http
Connecting to the Server
Connecting from Cursor
To connect to your MCP server from Cursor:
- Open Cursor and go to Settings (gear icon in the bottom left)
- Click on "Features" in the left sidebar
- Scroll down to "MCP Servers" section
- Click "Add new MCP server"
- Enter the following details:
- Server name:
my-mcp-server (or any name you prefer) - For stdio mode:
- Type:
command - Command: The path to your server executable, e.g.,
npm start
- For SSE mode:
- Type:
url - URL:
http://localhost:3001/sse
- Click "Save"
Using mcp.json with Cursor
For a more portable configuration, create an .cursor/mcp.json file in your project's root directory:
Standard Configuration (SaaS Version):
{
"mcpServers": {
"hap-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@mingdaocloud/hap-mcp"],
"env": {
"APPKEY": "your_APPKEY_here",
"SIGN": "your_signature_here"
}
},
"my-mcp-sse": {
"url": "http://localhost:3001/sse"
}
}
}
Private Deployment Configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"hap-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@mingdaocloud/hap-mcp"],
"env": {
"APPKEY": "your_APPKEY_here",
"SIGN": "your_signature_here",
"HOST": "https://www.nocoly.com"
}
},
"my-mcp-sse": {
"url": "http://localhost:3001/sse"
}
}
}
You can also create a global configuration at ~/.cursor/mcp.json to make your MCP servers available in all your Cursor workspaces.
Environment Variables:
APPKEY (required): Your Mingdao application keySIGN (required): Your Mingdao signatureHOST (optional): Custom host URL for private deployment only (e.g., https://www.nocoly.com). If provided, API calls will use host/api instead of https://api.mingdao.com
Note:
- The
command type entries run the server in stdio mode - The
url type entry connects to the HTTP server using SSE transport - You can provide environment variables using the
env field - When connecting via SSE with FastMCP, use the full URL including the
/sse path: http://localhost:3001/sse
FastMCP provides built-in tools for testing your server:
# Test with mcp-cli
npx fastmcp dev server.js
# Inspect with MCP Inspector
npx fastmcp inspect server.ts
Using Environment Variables
You can customize the server using environment variables:
# Required Mingdao API credentials
export APPKEY="your_APPKEY_here"
export SIGN="your_signature_here"
# Optional custom host (for private deployment only)
export HOST="https://www.nocoly.com"
# Server configuration
# Change the HTTP port (default is 3001)
PORT=8080 npm run start:http
# Change the host binding (default is 0.0.0.0)
HOST=127.0.0.1 npm run start:http
When adding custom tools, resources, or prompts to your FastMCP server:
server.addTool({
name: "hello_world",
description: "A simple hello world tool",
parameters: z.object({
name: z.string().describe("Name to greet")
}),
execute: async (params) => {
return `Hello, ${params.name}!`;
}
});
Resources
server.addResourceTemplate({
uriTemplate: "example://{id}",
name: "Example Resource",
mimeType: "text/plain",
arguments: [
{
name: "id",
description: "Resource ID",
required: true,
},
],
async load({ id }) {
return {
text: `This is an example resource with ID: ${id}`
};
}
});
Prompts
server.addPrompt({
name: "greeting",
description: "A simple greeting prompt",
arguments: [
{
name: "name",
description: "Name to greet",
required: true,
},
],
load: async ({ name }) => {
return `Hello, ${name}! How can I help you today?`;
}
});
