Requirements
- Python 3.8+
- uv (for running the server, or use your preferred Python environment)
- Cline (or any MCP-compatible agent)
Installation

Configuring the MCP Server in Cline
To use this MCP server with Cline in VSCode, add it to your Cline MCP configuration. Here’s how:
-
Install Cline in VSCode by searching for it in the Extensions marketplace and installing it.
-
Follow the Cline documentation to add a new server entry. Here is an example MCP servers config:
{ "mcpServers": { "Galaxy Tools": { "disabled": false, "timeout": 60, "command": "<path to your uv>", "args": [ "--directory", "</path/to/this/repo/mcp-server-galaxy-tool>", "run", "main.py" ], "transportType": "stdio" } } }
- Make sure the
commandandworkingDirectorymatch your local setup. - Save the file and restart Cline if necessary.
Usage
Once the server is running and configured in Cline, you can try this example in Cline:
Create a Galaxy tool that uses PyCaret to perform regression on tabular data.
