SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

mcporter enables developers to discover, configure, and call MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers and tools directly from the terminal, removing the need for ad-hoc tooling and boilerplate.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Discover MCP servers configured by MCP clients on the machine and via registries.
  • Call MCP tools using key=value pairs or function syntax to perform actions and retrieve results.
  • Manage authentication, configuration, and daemonization for persistent connections, with support for ad-hoc servers (HTTP URL or stdio commands) and code generation for client wrappers.

Quick Start

To get started, run mcporter list to discover MCP servers and then use mcporter call <server>.<tool> to invoke a tool.

Frequently Asked Questions about mcporter

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I call MCP tools directly from the terminal?▼

You can call MCP tools from the terminal by running mcporter call <server>.<tool> with key=value pairs or function syntax to execute actions and retrieve JSON outputs.

What is the Model Context Protocol and when do I need a CLI for it?▼

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) standardizes interactions with servers and tools. A CLI is needed to discover servers, show schemas, and execute tool calls without writing boilerplate code.

Do I need Node.js to manage MCP servers via command line?▼

Yes, Node.js is required to manage MCP servers via command line. It provides the runtime environment needed to configure servers, handle OAuth flows, and execute calls.

Can I connect to ad-hoc MCP servers using HTTP or stdio?▼

Yes, you can connect to ad-hoc MCP servers using HTTP URLs or stdio commands. This allows you to quickly configure and interact with endpoints outside of pre-registered servers.

How do I list available MCP servers configured on my machine?▼

To list available MCP servers configured on your machine, run the mcporter list command to discover servers set up by MCP clients and via remote registries.
