Setup

Requires Python 3.12+ and uv.

cd mcp-calculator
uv sync

Run

Start the server (stdio transport, default for MCP clients like Cursor):

uv run calculator_server.py

For HTTP transport (e.g. MCP Inspector), change the last line of calculator_server.py to mcp.run(transport="streamable-http") and connect to http://localhost:8000/mcp.

Cursor configuration

Add this to your Cursor MCP settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "calculator": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--directory",
        "/Users/premithun/Downloads/cursor_projects/mcp-calculator",
        "calculator_server.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Replace the --directory path with the absolute path to this project on your machine.
