remote-capable server

The server can be hosted and run remotely because it primarily relies on remote services or has no dependency on the local environment.

Integrations

  • The MCP server project is hosted on GitHub, allowing users to clone the repository, contribute via pull requests, and star the project

  • Built on Python 3.11+ and provides an extensible framework for creating custom Python-based tools for Claude

Slim-MCP: Claude Tools 🤖

🚀 Supercharge Claude with powerful Python-based tools via the MCP protocol

✨ Features

  • 🧮 Calculator: Perform complex math calculations
  • 🌦️ Weather: Get current weather forecasts and alerts
  • 🕒 DateTime: Access current time in local and UTC formats
  • 🔌 Extensible: Easily add custom tools with simple Python functions
  • 💻 Desktop Integration: Seamless integration with Claude Desktop app
  • 🖱️ Cursor IDE: Native integration with Cursor IDE for developers

🚀 Installation

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.11+
  • Conda (recommended)
# Create conda environment with Python 3.11 conda create -n mcp-tools python=3.11 # Activate environment conda activate mcp-tools # Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/webdevtodayjason/slim-MCP.git cd slim-MCP # Install with uv (preferred) uv pip install -e . # OR install with standard pip pip install -e .

🎮 Usage

Configure Claude

Add this to your Claude configuration file:

{ "mcpServers": { "claude-tools": { "command": "/path/to/conda/envs/mcp-tools/bin/python", "args": ["-m", "claude_tools.main"] } } }

Configure Cursor IDE

NAME: claude-tools TYPE: command COMMAND: /path/to/conda/envs/mcp-tools/bin/python -m claude_tools.main

Example Prompts

Can you calculate 25^3 + sqrt(196)? What's the current time in UTC? What's the weather like in Austin, TX?

🔌 Integrations

  • Claude AI Desktop: Primary integration via MCP protocol
  • Cursor IDE: Direct integration for development workflows
  • Claude Web: Compatible with Claude Web through configuration

Creating a New Tool

  1. Create a new Python file in src/claude_tools/:
# src/claude_tools/my_tool.py def my_awesome_function(param: str) -> str: """Description of what this tool does. Args: param: Description of the parameter Returns: A string with the result """ result = f"Processed: {param}" return result def register_my_tools(mcp): """Register all my tools with the MCP server.""" mcp.tool()(my_awesome_function)
  1. Import and register your tool in __init__.py:
# In src/claude_tools/__init__.py from .calculator import register_calculator_tools from .datetime_tool import register_datetime_tools from .weather import register_weather_tools from .my_tool import register_my_tools # Add this line def register_all_tools(mcp): register_calculator_tools(mcp) register_datetime_tools(mcp) register_weather_tools(mcp) register_my_tools(mcp) # Add this line
  1. Restart the server and your new tool is ready to use!
