Installation

One-Command Installation

# Using pip (system Python)
pip install --user git+https://github.com/ramz/hermetic-ai-mcp.git --break-system-packages

# Or using pipx (recommended)
pipx install git+https://github.com/ramz/hermetic-ai-mcp.git

# Or using uv (if you have it)
uv pip install git+https://github.com/ramz/hermetic-ai-mcp.git

The installation automatically:

1. Installs the hermetic-mcp command

2. Adds it to your PATH

3. Makes it available for Claude configuration

Configuration

After installation, configure Claude to use the MCP server:

Automatic Configuration

hermetic-mcp --configure

This will automatically detect and update your Claude configuration file.

Manual Configuration

For Claude Code CLI

Edit ~/.config/claude/config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hermetic-ai": {
      "command": "hermetic-mcp",
      "args": [],
      "env": {
        "PYTHONUNBUFFERED": "1"
      }
    }
  }
}

For Claude Desktop

Edit ~/.config/claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hermetic-ai": {
      "command": "hermetic-mcp",
      "args": [],
      "env": {
        "PYTHONUNBUFFERED": "1"
      }
    }
  }
}

Verification

Test the installation:

# Test MCP protocol
echo '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2024-11-05","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"1.0"}},"id":1}' | hermetic-mcp

# Should return a JSON response with "hermetic-ai" server info
