Hello MCP Server

This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation that enables AI assistants to interact with external services and data sources. The server is designed to work with Claude and other MCP-compatible AI assistants.

Prerequisites

  • Node.js (v18 or higher)
  • pnpm package manager
  • force CLI, install with pnpm i -g @forgehive/forge-cli

Installation

Clone the repository and install dependencies:

git clone <repository-url>
cd hello-mcp-server
pnpm install

Build

Build the project with:

pnpm run build

This will compile TypeScript into JavaScript in the dist directory.

Running Tasks Directly

You can run individual tasks directly using the Forge runner:

# Run the stock price task with a ticker parameter
forge task:run stock:price --ticker AAPL

Adding to Claude Desktop

To use the server with Claude Desktop:

  1. Build the project with pnpm run build
  2. Modify the Claude Desktop configuration file:

With nano: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "hello-mcp-server": {
            "command": "node",
            "args": [
                "ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_PROJECT/hello-mcp-server/dist/index.js"
            ]
        }
    }
}

Replace ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_PROJECT with the actual absolute path to your project directory.

Using MCP Inspector

For debugging and testing your MCP server, you can use the MCP Inspector tool:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_PROJECT/hello-mcp-server/dist/index.js

The inspector provides a web interface to test your server's tools and see their responses.

Development

To add new tasks:

  1. Create a new task using the Forge CLI:

    forge task:create MODULE:TASK_NAME
    

    This will generate a task template file in src/tasks/MODULE/TASK_NAME.ts.

  2. Implement your task in the generated file using the Forge Task API.

  3. Register the task in the runner (src/runner.ts):

    import { yourTask } from './tasks/module/your-task';
    
    // Add your task to the runner
    runner.load('your_task_name', yourTask);
    
  4. Build the project with pnpm run build

The server will automatically register all tasks from the runner as MCP tools without needing to manually add them to the src/index.ts file.
