🛠️ MCP Tools

This server exposes two tools that AI assistants can use:

💡 The component docs are pulled from daisyui.com/llms.txt and stored locally as markdown files. This way you can also add your own custom components or edit existing ones to your liking or project needs.

💬 Example Prompts

Try asking your AI assistant:

"What DaisyUI components are available?"

"Implement a responsive card grid using DaisyUI"

"How does the modal component work? Show me an example"

📦 Installation

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/birdseyevue/fastmcp.git
cd fastmcp

2. Create a virtual environment (recommended)

python -m venv venv

# Windows
venv\Scripts\activate

# macOS/Linux
source venv/bin/activate

3. Install dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

🐳 Docker

You can also run the MCP server using Docker.

Build and run with Docker

docker build -t daisyui-mcp .
docker run -i --rm daisyui-mcp

Using Docker Compose

docker compose up --build

The docker-compose.yml mounts the local components/ directory as a volume, so any changes you make to component docs on the host are reflected inside the container.

Docker configuration for AI assistants

{
  "servers": {
    "daisyui": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "daisyui-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

🚀 Usage

First-time setup

Upon first run, the MCP server will not have any component docs. Fetch them by running:

python update_components.py

This fetches the latest llms.txt from DaisyUI and generates all the markdown files in /components.

Running the server

python mcp_server.py

Updating component docs

If DaisyUI releases new components or updates their docs, simply run:

python update_components.py

⚙️ Configuration

Add the MCP server to your AI assistant's configuration:

  "servers": {
    "daisyui": {
      "command": "<path-to-repo>/venv/Scripts/python.exe",
      "args": ["<path-to-repo>/mcp_server.py"]
    }
  }
}
