No SDKs. No wrapper code. One binary, any MCP server. What it does MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers expose tools — search issues, query logs, send messages, read files. This CLI lets you call those tools directly from your terminal. You configure a server once, then use it like any other command. Output is always JSON. Pipe it, jq it, script it. Quick start Install: Add a server from the registry: Or add an HTTP server manually: See what tools are available: Call a tool: That's it. You're using MCP. How it works The CLI reads your config ( /.config/mcp/servers.json ), connects to the server using stdio or HTTP, and speaks JSON-RPC 2.0 to call tools. Authentication (OAuth 2.0, API tokens) is handled automatically. Configuration Servers live in /.config/mcp/servers.json : Three types of servers: - Stdio — the CLI spawns a local process ( command + args ) - HTTP — the CLI connects to a remote URL ( url + optional headers ) - CLI — wraps any command-line tool as an MCP server ( command + cli: true ) Environment variables use ${VAR NAME} syntax and are resolved at runtime. Authentication For HTTP servers that require auth, mcp handles it automatically: 1. OAuth 2.0 — If the server supports it, mcp opens your browser, completes the flow, and saves the token 2. Manual token — If OAuth isn't available, it guides you to get a token with service-specific instructions 3. Config headers — You can set Authorization headers directl","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/avelino","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/avelino/mcp/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
