## Setup
### Prerequisites
- Python 3.12+
- UV package manager
### Installation
1. Install UV package manager and install env:
```bash
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
```
2. Clone this repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/piplabs/story-mcp-hub.git
cd story-mcp-hub
```
3. Install dependencies using UV:
```bash
uv sync
```
4. Set up environment variables for each server:
For StoryScan MCP:
```bash
cd storyscan-mcp
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your StoryScan API endpoint
```
For Story SDK MCP:
```bash
cd story-sdk-mcp
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your wallet private key, RPC provider URL, etc.
```
## Running the Servers
### StoryScan MCP Server Inspector
```bash
cd storyscan-mcp
uv run mcp dev server.py
```
### Story SDK MCP Server
```bash
cd story-sdk-mcp
uv run mcp dev server.py
```
## Using with MCP Clients
Follow the instructions below to connect the MCP servers to various MCP-compatible clients.
### Cursor
Cursor implements an MCP client that supports an arbitrary number of MCP servers with both `stdio` and `sse` transports.
#### Adding MCP Servers in Cursor
1. Go to `Cursor Settings` > `Features` > `MCP`
2. Click on the `+ Add New MCP Server` button
3. Fill out the form:
- Select the transport under `Type`
- Enter a nickname for the server in the `Name` field
- Enter either the command to run or the URL of the server, depending on the transport
- We'll use the `uv` command to run the server, so make sure to include the `--directory` flag with the path to the server (Example: `uv --directory ~/path/to/story-mcp-hub/storyscan-mcp run server.py`)

#### Project-Specific MCP Configuration
You can configure project-specific MCP servers using `.cursor/mcp.json`. The file follows this format:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"storyscan-mcp": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"~/path/to/story-mcp-hub/storyscan-mcp",
"run",
"server.py"
]
},
"story-sdk-mcp": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"~/path/to/story-mcp-hub/story-sdk-mcp",
"run",
"server.py"
]
}
}
}
```
#### Using MCP Tools in Cursor
The Composer Agent will automatically use any MCP tools that are listed under `Available Tools` on the MCP settings page if it determines them to be relevant. To prompt tool usage intentionally, simply tell the agent to use the tool, referring to it either by name or by description.
When the Agent wants to use an MCP tool, it will display a message asking for your approval.
### Claude Desktop
Claude Desktop can be configured to use MCP servers by editing its configuration file.
#### Adding MCP Servers in Claude Desktop
1. Open the Claude Desktop configuration file:
```bash
code ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
```
2. Add the MCP server configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"storyscan-mcp": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"~/path/to/story-mcp-hub/storyscan-mcp",
"run",
"server.py"
]
},
"story-sdk-mcp": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"~/path/to/story-mcp-hub/story-sdk-mcp",
"run",
"server.py"
]
}
}
}
```
3. Save the file and restart Claude Desktop for the changes to take effect.

Example query: `use storyscan to check balance of 0x95A13F457C76d10A40D7e8497eD4F40c53F4d04b`
## Development
To add a new MCP server to the hub:
1. Create a new directory for your server
2. Implement the MCP protocol in your server
3. Add any necessary dependencies to the root `pyproject.toml`
4. Update this README with information about your server
## Testing
### Running Tests
The project includes a test runner script (`run_tests.py`) that handles environment setup and test execution. To run tests:
1. Install test dependencies:
```bash
uv sync --extra test
```
2. Run all tests:
```bash
uv run python run_tests.py
```
3. Run specific test categories:
```bash
# Run unit tests only
uv run python run_tests.py -t tests/unit/
# Run integration tests only
uv run python run_tests.py -t tests/integration/
# Run with verbose output
uv run python run_tests.py -v
```
4. Run individual test files:
```bash
uv run python run_tests.py -t tests/unit/story_sdk_mcp/test_story_service.py
```
5. Get help on available options:
```bash
uv run python run_tests.py --help
```
### Environment Setup for Testing
The tests use a `.env.test` file with mock credentials for testing. This file is automatically loaded by the test runner.
To set up your test environment:
1. Copy the example file to create your own `.env.test`:
```bash
cp .env.test.example .env.test
```
2. Edit the `.env.test` file to include your test credentials:
```bash
# For example, update the private key for blockchain interactions
nano .env.test # or use your preferred text editor
```
For more detailed information about testing, see the [testing guide](TESTING.md).
### Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues:
1. Verify that environment variables are set correctly for each server
2. Check network connectivity to external APIs (StoryScan, IPFS, etc.)
3. Ensure you're using the correct Python version (3.12+)
4. Check that all dependencies are installed with `uv sync`
