The registry is available at [mcpm.sh/registry](https://mcpm.sh/registry). ## 🤖 AI Agent Integration MCPM is designed to be AI agent friendly with comprehensive automation support. Every interactive command has a non-interactive alternative using CLI parameters and environment variables. ### 🔧 Non-Interactive Mode Set environment variables to enable full automation: ```bash export MCPM_NON_INTERACTIVE=true # Disable all interactive prompts export MCPM_FORCE=true # Skip confirmations export MCPM_JSON_OUTPUT=true # JSON output for parsing ``` ### 📋 LLM.txt Guide The [llm.txt](llm.txt) file provides comprehensive documentation specifically designed for AI agents, including: - Complete command reference with parameters and examples - Environment variable usage patterns - Best practices for automation - Error handling and troubleshooting - Batch operation patterns The llm.txt file is automatically generated from the CLI structure and kept up-to-date with each release. ### ⚡ Example Usage ```bash # Server management mcpm new myserver --type stdio --command "python -m server" --force mcpm edit myserver --env "API_KEY=secret" --force # Profile management mcpm profile edit web-dev --add-server myserver --force mcpm profile run web-dev --port 8080 # Client integration mcpm client edit cursor --add-profile web-dev --force ``` ## 🗺️ Roadmap ### ✅ v2.0 Complete - [x] Global server configuration model - [x] Profile-based server tagging and organization - [x] Interactive command interfaces - [x] Client integration management (`mcpm client edit`) - [x] Modern CLI with consistent UX - [x] Registry integration and server discovery - [x] Direct server execution and sharing - [x] Import from existing client configurations - [x] Additional client support (gemini-cli, codex, etc.) ### 🔮 Future Enhancements - [ ] Advanced Server access monitoring and analytics - [ ] Execution in docker - [ ] Expose MCPM functionality as an MCP server (search, install, profile management etc.) - [ ] TUI interface for MCP inspect - [ ] TUI interface for MCP & profile management ## 📦 Other Installation Methods ### 🍺 Homebrew ```bash brew install mcpm ``` ### 📦 pipx (Recommended for Python tools) ```bash pipx install mcpm ``` ### 🪄 uv tool ```bash uv tool install mcpm ``` ## More Installation Methods ### 🐍 pip ```bash pip install mcpm ``` ### 🧰 X-CMD If you are a user of [x-cmd](https://x-cmd.com), you can run: ```sh x install mcpm.sh ``` ## 👨‍💻 Development This repository contains the CLI and service components for MCP Manager, built with Python and Click following modern package development practices. ### 📋 Development Requirements - 🐍 Python 3.10+ - 🚀 uv (for virtual environment and dependency management) - 🖱️ Click framework for CLI - ✨ Rich for enhanced console output - 🌐 Requests for API interactions ### 📁 Project Structure The project follows the modern src-based layout: ``` mcpm.sh/ ├── src/ # Source package directory │ └── mcpm/ # Main package code ├── tests/ # Test directory ├── test_cli.py # Development CLI runner ├── pyproject.toml # Project configuration ├── pages/ # Website content │ └── registry/ # Registry website ├── mcp-registry/ # MCP Registry data └── README.md # Documentation ``` ### 🚀 Development Setup 1. Clone the repository ``` git clone https://github.com/pathintegral-institute/mcpm.sh.git cd mcpm.sh ``` 2. Set up a virtual environment with uv ``` uv venv --seed source .venv/bin/activate # On Unix/Mac ``` 3. Install dependencies in development mode ``` uv pip install -e . ``` 4. Run the CLI directly during development ``` # Either use the installed package mcpm --help # Or use the development script ./test_cli.py --help ``` 5. Run tests ``` pytest tests/ ``` ### ✅ Best Practices - 📁 Use the src-based directory structure to prevent import confusion - 🔧 Develop with an editable install using `uv pip install -e .` - 🧩 Keep commands modular in the `src/mcpm/commands/` directory - 🧪 Add tests for new functionality in the `tests/` directory - 💻 Use the `test_cli.py` script for quick development testing ### 🔢 Version Management MCP uses a single source of truth pattern for version management to ensure consistency across all components. #### 🏷️ Version Structure - 📍 The canonical version is defined in `version.py` at the project root - 📥 `src/mcpm/__init__.py` imports this version - 📄 `pyproject.toml` uses dynamic versioning to read from `version.py` - 🏷️ Git tags are created with the same version number prefixed with 'v' (e.g., v1.0.0) #### 🔄 Updating the Version When releasing a new version: 1. Use the provided version bump script ``` ./bump_version.sh NEW_VERSION # Example: ./bump_version.sh 1.1.0 ``` 2. Push the changes and tags ``` git push && git push --tags ``` 3. Create a GitHub release matching the new version This process ensures that the version is consistent in all places: code, package metadata, and git tags. PyPI release is handled by the CI/CD pipeline and will be triggered automatically. ## 📜 License MIT ## Star History [](https://www.star-history.com/#pathintegral-institute/mcpm.sh&Date)
