# Emacs MCP Server Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Emacs. Enables generating and running elisp code in a running Emacs process. ## Tools The server exposes two tools: - `generate_emacs_lisp_code`: generates elisp for a given task - `execute_emacs_lisp_code`: passes elisp to a running Emacs (via `emacsclient`) to eval and execute it. ## Invocation The project is managed with `uv`. First, run `uv sync` to install all dependencies. Then `source .venv/bin/activate` to activate the resulting venv. To run the MCP server in the inspector: ```sh mcp dev emacs_mcp_server.py ``` To install the MCP server so that Claude Desktop can use it: ```sh mcp install emacs_mcp_server.py ``` But you will have to edit the resulting JSON config in `claude_desktop_config.json` to include API keys and the full path to `emacsclient`. It should look something like this: ```json "Emacs-MCP-Server": { "command": "/Users/haldar/.local/bin/uv", "args": [ "run", "--with", "mcp[cli]", "--with", "smartfunc", "mcp", "run", "/Users/haldar/repos/gh/emacs-mcp-server/emacs_mcp_server.py" ], "env": { "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-xxxx", "EMACSCLIENT": "/your/path/to/emacsclient" } } ```
