SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill simplifies the process of connecting Claude Code to external tools, databases, and APIs by managing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. It addresses the complexity of server configuration, authentication, and troubleshooting.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Add/Remove Servers: Easily add new MCP servers or remove existing ones using simple commands.
  • Configure Transports & Scopes: Supports HTTP, SSE, and Stdio transports, with options for local, project, and user scopes.
  • Authentication Management: Guides users through OAuth flows and API key configurations.
  • Troubleshooting: Provides clear steps for diagnosing and resolving common connection and authentication issues.
  • Use Case: You need to connect Claude Code to your company's internal PostgreSQL database. Use this Skill to add the database as an MCP server with the correct stdio transport, environment variables for credentials, and then verify the connection.

Quick Start

Add a new HTTP MCP server named 'stripe' with the URL 'https://mcp.stripe.com'.

Frequently Asked Questions about mcp-server-manager

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I configure an MCP server to connect Claude Code to an external database?▼

You can configure an MCP server by specifying the transport type (HTTP, SSE, or Stdio), setting the appropriate scope (local, project, or user), and providing necessary environment variables. This allows Claude Code to securely connect to and interact with external databases or APIs.

What transport types and scopes are supported for MCP server configuration?▼

MCP server configuration supports HTTP, SSE, and Stdio transport types across local, project, and user scopes. This allows flexible integration of external services depending on whether the connection needs to be isolated to a single project or available globally.

How does authentication management work when adding MCP servers for tool integration?▼

Authentication management for MCP servers involves guiding users through OAuth flows and API key configurations. This ensures that external service connections are securely authorized before Claude Code attempts to interact with the integrated APIs or databases.

Why is my MCP server connection not working after adding it to Claude Code?▼

If your MCP server connection is not working, the troubleshooting process involves checking transport configurations, verifying API keys or OAuth tokens, and ensuring environment variables are correctly set. Common issues often stem from incorrect scope settings or invalid credentials.

Can I manage MCP servers across different project environments using CLI commands?▼

Yes, you can manage MCP servers across different project environments using simple CLI commands for addition, removal, listing, and status checks. This allows you to maintain separate server configurations for local, project, and user scopes simultaneously.
