This Skill allows users to directly interact with MCP (Meta Communication Protocol) servers and tools, streamlining operations like listing, configuring, authenticating, and calling servers or ad-hoc tools.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Direct Server Interaction: List available servers and tools, including schema details.
  • Tool Execution: Call tools on servers using various syntaxes (selector, function, URL, stdio, JSON payload).
  • Authentication & Configuration: Manage server authentication (OAuth) and configure mcporter settings.
  • Code Generation: Generate CLI tools and TypeScript definitions for servers or commands.

Quick Start

Use mcporter to list all available servers and their tools.

Frequently Asked Questions about mcporter

FAQPage Schema
How do I interact directly with MCP servers to list and call tools?

You can interact directly with MCP servers using the mcporter CLI binary to list available servers, view tool schemas, and execute commands via HTTP or stdio protocols for streamlined tool calling and configuration.

What is the process for generating TypeScript definitions from an MCP server?

Generating TypeScript definitions from an MCP server involves using a CLI tool that connects to the server, reads its tool schemas, and automatically produces the required type definitions and CLI tools for direct integration into your codebase.

Do I need a specific CLI binary to execute tools on ad-hoc MCP servers?

Yes, executing tools on ad-hoc MCP servers requires the mcporter CLI binary for operation, which facilitates tool calling, authentication management, and configuration edits over HTTP or stdio protocols.

Can I manage OAuth authentication for MCP servers via command line?

Yes, you can manage server authentication like OAuth directly via the command line, allowing you to configure access credentials and interact securely with MCP servers and their available tools.

Are there limitations when using stdio protocol for MCP tool execution?

When using stdio protocol for MCP server interaction, a known constraint is that it requires the mcporter CLI binary to manage the local process communication, which may differ in setup compared to HTTP-based server execution.
