## Requirements

- Python >= 3.11
- Claude Desktop or Cursor (MCP supporting version)
- uv (recommended) or pip

## Installation

### 1. Clone the repository

```bash
git clone https://github.com/teddynote-lab/mcp.git
cd mcp
```

### 2. Set up virtual environment

#### Using uv (recommended)
```bash
# macOS/Linux
uv venv
uv pip install -r requirements.txt
```

```bash
# Windows
uv venv
uv pip install -r requirements_windows.txt
```

#### Using pip
```bash
python -m venv .venv

# Windows
.venv\Scripts\activate
pip install -r requirements_windows.txt

# macOS/Linux
source .venv/bin/activate

pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### 3. Preparing the PDF File

Plese prepare a PDF file required for RAG in the `./data` directory.

## Configuration

In order to execute each case, a `.env` file is required.
Please specify the necessary environment variables in the `.env.example` file located in the root directory, and rename it to `.env`.

### sites for configuring required environment variables for each case
- https://platform.openai.com/api-keys
- https://dify.ai/
- https://app.tavily.com/home

## Usage

### 1. Generate JSON File

Run the following command in each case directory to generate the necessary JSON file:

```bash
# Activate virtual environment

# Windows
.venv\Scripts\activate

# macOS/Linux
source .venv/bin/activate

# Navigate to example directory
cd case1

# Generate JSON file
python auto_mcp_json.py
```

### 2. Register MCP in Claude Desktop/Cursor

1. Launch Claude Desktop or Cursor
2. Open MCP settings menu
3. Copy and paste the generated JSON content
4. Save and `restart`

> **Note**: When you run Claude Desktop or Cursor, the MCP server will automatically run with it. When you close the software, the MCP server will also terminate.

## Troubleshooting

Common issues and solutions:

- **MCP Server Connection Failure**: Check if the service is running properly and if there are no port conflicts. In particular, when applying case2, you must also run `dify_ek_server.py`.
- **API Key Errors**: Verify that environment variables are set correctly.
- **Virtual Environment Issues**: Ensure Python version is 3.11 or higher.
