Setup

Prerequisites

• Python 3.12+

• UV package manager

Installation

1. Install UV package manager and install env:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

2. Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/piplabs/story-mcp-hub.git
cd story-mcp-hub

3. Install dependencies using UV:

uv sync

4. Set up environment variables for each server:

For StoryScan MCP:

cd storyscan-mcp
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your StoryScan API endpoint

For Story SDK MCP:

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

cd storyscan-mcp
uv run mcp dev server.py

Story SDK MCP Server

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:

{
  "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:

code ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

2. Add the MCP server configuration:

{
  "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:

uv sync --extra test

2. Run all tests:

uv run python run_tests.py

3. Run specific test categories:

# 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:

uv run python run_tests.py -t tests/unit/story_sdk_mcp/test_story_service.py

5. Get help on available options:

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:

cp .env.test.example .env.test

2. Edit the .env.test file to include your test credentials:

# 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.

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
