🔧 Features
Dynamic Tool Registration
Tools are automatically discovered and registered at runtime - no manual configuration needed!
Multiple Transport Options
- stdio: For Claude Desktop integration
- SSE (Server-Sent Events): For web-based access
120+ Available Tools
- 📁 File System: Read, write, and manage files
- 🕐 Time Tools: Timezone conversions and time operations
- 🌐 Web Search: Brave Search integration
- 🤖 Browser Automation: Playwright-based browser control
- 📊 Data Analysis: Yahoo Finance, FRED, World Bank data
- 📄 Document Tools: PDF, Excel, PowerPoint manipulation
- 🎯 And many more!
Easy Configuration
Control everything through a simple config.yaml file:
enabled_tools:
filesystem: true
time_tools: true
brave_search: true
# ... more tools
tool_config:
filesystem:
allowed_directories: ["~/Documents", "~/Downloads"]
brave_search:
max_results: 10
📋 Environment Setup
- Copy
.env.templateto.env - Add your API keys:
BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY=your_key_here NEWS_API_KEY=your_key_here FRED_API_KEY=your_key_here # ... other keys
💾 Storage Setup
MCP Tool Kit uses a dedicated storage directory for file operations:
- Windows:
C:\Users\{Username}\mcp-tool-kit-storage - Mac/Linux:
~/mcp-tool-kit-storage
Automatic Setup
The storage directory is automatically created when you first run the Docker container. You can also manually set it up:
Windows (PowerShell):
.\scripts\setup-storage.ps1
Mac/Linux:
./scripts/setup-storage.sh
Storage Structure
mcp-tool-kit-storage/
├── documents/ # For document files
├── downloads/ # For downloaded files
└── workspace/ # For temporary work files
All file operations through the filesystem tool will be restricted to this directory for security.
🔌 Connecting to Claude Desktop
- Start the server in stdio mode using the launcher
- Add to Claude Desktop configuration:
{ "mcpServers": { "mcp-tool-kit": { "command": "docker", "args": ["exec", "-i", "mcp-server", "python", "mcp_server_v2.py"] } } }
🌐 Using SSE Mode
- Start the server in SSE mode using the launcher
- Access the server at
http://localhost:8080 - Use the SSE endpoints:
/sse- Server-Sent Events stream/messages- Send messages to the server
🛠️ Creating Custom Tools
Tools now use a standardized base class system:
from app.tools.base_tool import BaseTool
class MyCustomTool(BaseTool):
def get_name(self) -> str:
return "My Custom Tool"
def get_tools(self) -> Dict[str, Callable]:
return {
"my_function": self.my_function
}
async def my_function(self, param: str, ctx: Context = None) -> str:
return f"Processed: {param}"
See the developer documentation for detailed guides.
