🖥️ Claude Desktop Integration

AgentExecMCP works seamlessly with Claude Desktop using SSE transport. This is perfect for local development and testing.

Easy Setup with Make (Recommended)

Super simple 3-step setup:

Start AgentExecMCP:
```
make quick-start
```
Install Claude Desktop configuration:
```
make install-claude-config
```
Restart Claude Desktop and look for the MCP tools icon! 🎉

Manual Setup (if you prefer)

Start the SSE server:

docker run -d --name AgentExecMCP-claude -p 8000:8000 -e MCP_TRANSPORT=sse AgentExecMCP

Configure Claude Desktop:
Open your Claude Desktop configuration file:
- macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
- Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Add the following configuration:
```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "AgentExecMCP": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:8000/sse"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
Restart Claude Desktop and look for the MCP tools icon

Test the Integration

Try these commands in Claude Desktop:

"Run a shell command to list files"
"Execute some Python code to calculate 2+2"
"Install the requests package using pip"

Troubleshooting

Check server status: make status
View logs: make logs
Restart server: make stop && make quick-start

Prerequisites for Claude Desktop

Node.js and npm installed on your system
Docker running with the AgentExecMCP container
Claude Desktop latest version

The mcp-remote package will be automatically installed by npx when first used.

🖥️ Cursor Integration

AgentExecMCP works seamlessly with the Cursor IDE using the same SSE transport and configuration as Claude Desktop.

Manual Setup (for Cursor)

Start the SSE server:
```
make quick-start
```

Configure Cursor:

Open your Cursor mcp configuration file (for example ~/.cursor/mcp.json) and add the following:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "AgentExecMCP": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:8000/sse"
      ]
    }
  }
}
