FileMaker MCP Server

# FileMaker MCP Server This project implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that dynamically exposes FileMaker scripts as tools. It uses Gradio to provide a user interface for interacting with these tools. ## Setup 1. **Clone the repository:** ```bash git clone https://github.com/mw777eds/filemaker_mcp_local/ cd filemaker_mcp_local ``` 2. **Create a virtual environment:** ```bash python3 -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate ``` 3. **Install dependencies:** ```bash pip install -r requirements.txt ``` 4. **Configure Environment Variables:** Create a `.env` file in the project root with the following variables: ```env FM_USERNAME=your_filemaker_username FM_PASSWORD=your_filemaker_password FM_HOST=your_filemaker_host FM_DATABASE=your_filemaker_database FM_LAYOUT=your_filemaker_layout ``` Replace the placeholder values with your actual FileMaker credentials and database details. ## Running the Server 1. **Activate the virtual environment** (if not already active): ```bash source venv/bin/activate ``` 2. **Run the server script:** ```bash python gradio_mcp_server.py ``` This will start both the MCP server (listening on stdin/stdout for the MCP protocol) and a Gradio server (typically on port 7860) providing a web UI for the dynamically created tools.
