SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Mcporter removes the friction of working with MCP servers by giving you a single CLI to discover, configure, authenticate, and call tools without switching between client apps.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Server discovery: List locally configured MCP servers and inspect their tools with schema details.
  • Direct tool execution: Call server tools with key=value arguments, JSON payloads, or function-style syntax.
  • Flexible connections: Reach HTTP endpoints, run ad hoc stdio servers, and manage persistent daemon connections.
  • Automation and integration: Generate CLI wrappers and TypeScript clients for repeatable workflows and downstream tooling.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to use mcporter to list your configured MCP servers, inspect the target tool schema, and call the tool with structured JSON output.
