๐Ÿ“‹ Requirements

  • Node.js 14+ Download

  • Claude Desktop installed (Download here)

  • Internet connection for Email Sending GARAK API key generation

๐Ÿš€ Quick Start

You can run Hello-MCP without installation using npx:

npx hello-mcp

This will start the setup wizard that guides you through the entire configuration process.

๐ŸŽฎ Usage

Hi-Garak can be used in three different modes:

1๏ธโƒฃ Setup Mode (Default)

npx hello-mcp
# or
npx hello-mcp setup

This interactive mode will:

  • Check if Claude Desktop is installed

  • Ask for your email and purpose

  • Generate an API key

  • Configure Claude Desktop for MCP

  • Restart Claude Desktop automatically (when possible)

2๏ธโƒฃ MCP Server Mode

npx hello-mcp mcp-server

This starts Hello-MCP as an MCP server that Claude Desktop can connect to. The server provides tools that Claude can use to perform actions.

๐Ÿ”‘ API Keys

Your API key is stored in ~/.garakrc and has a daily limit of 50 requests. The key is automatically configured for use with Claude Desktop.

๐Ÿ“Š Telemetry

Hello-MCP collects anonymous usage data to improve the service:

  • User interactions and performance metrics

  • All data is anonymized

  • You can disable telemetry in the configuration

๐ŸŒŸ Tips for Using with Claude

After setup, you can try these prompts with Claude:

  1. "1 add 1" (Simple calculation)

  2. "Send an email to [your-email] with the result of 1 add 1"

    D1.2/5.0

    Scored across 2 tools

    Disambiguation2/5

    The two tools, 'add' and 'send-email', have no descriptions and appear to serve completely unrelated purposes. An agent cannot determine what 'add' refers to or how it relates to sending email, creating ambiguity.

    Naming Consistency2/5

    The tool names follow no consistent pattern: 'add' is a bare verb while 'send-email' uses a verb-noun format with a hyphen. The lack of a shared convention makes the set feel ad hoc.

    Tool Count2/5

    With only two tools and no descriptions, the server appears extremely thin and under-scoped. It is unclear what domain it covers, and two unrelated tools do not form a coherent toolkit.

    Completeness1/5

    The server's purpose is entirely unclear from the tool names alone. 'add' and 'send-email' do not suggest any complete workflow or domain coverage, leaving obvious gaps in any conceivable use case.
