A custom Machine Conversation Protocol (MCP) server that integrates various tools for AI assistants.

Custom MCP Server

A custom Machine Conversation Protocol (MCP) server that integrates various tools for AI assistants:

  • Brave Search - Web and local search capabilities
  • Secure Filesystem - File operations with security controls
  • GitHub Integration - Repository and code management
  • Sequential Thinking - Step-by-step problem solving
  • Download Utility - Download files from the internet

Quick Start

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/degenhero/custom-mcp-server.git
cd custom-mcp-server

# Install dependencies and set up environment
npm run install:all

# Start both servers
npm run start:both

The servers will run at:

Usage with Claude

To use this custom MCP server with Claude, you need to install it as an MCP server:

npx @anthropic-ai/install-mcp custom-mcp-server http://localhost:3001

After installation, Claude will have access to all the functions provided by this server.

Architecture

This project consists of two main components:

  1. Custom MCP Server (index.js) - The core server that implements all the tool functions
  2. MCP Protocol Server (mcp-protocol.js) - Adapts the custom server to the MCP protocol standard

Configuration

Configuration is managed through environment variables in a .env file:

PORT=3000                      # Port for the main server
MCP_PROTOCOL_PORT=3001         # Port for the MCP protocol server
BRAVE_API_KEY=your_key_here    # API key for Brave Search
GITHUB_TOKEN=your_token_here   # GitHub access token

Development

Adding New Functions

To add a new function:

  1. Create a handler in the appropriate file in the functions directory
  2. Add the function definition to mcp-schema.json
  3. Update the routing in index.js

Testing

You can test functions directly against the MCP server:

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"functionName": "brave_web_search", "parameters": {"query": "test query"}}'
