Command-line interface for any Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. MCP enables AI assistants to interact with tools and data sources. mcp-cli brings that same power to the command line, making MCP accessible to humans for: - 🤖 Shell scripting and automation - 🔧 DevOps and CI/CD pipelines - 🧪 Quick testing of MCP servers - 📊 Data operations and queries - ⚡ Rapid prototyping Features - 🔌 Universal : Works with ANY MCP server - 🚀 Zero Schema Config : Discovers tools dynamically from the server - 🎯 Automatic CLI Generation : Tool schemas → Commander.js options (magically!) - 📝 Clean Output : Parseable results perfect for piping - 🛠️ Human-Friendly : No JSON-RPC knowledge needed Installation Quick Start Inline Server Specification Named Server Configuration Create /.mcp-cli.json : Then use named servers: How It Works 1. Connect to MCP Server 2. Server Discovers Its Own Tools The CLI calls the MCP tools/list method - the server returns: 3. CLI Generates Commands Dynamically Output: 4. Execute Tool All generated from the MCP schema - zero manual configuration! Usage Examples ChromaDB Operations GitHub Operations Shell Scripting Configuration Config File Locations The CLI looks for config in this order: 1. ./.mcp-cli.json (current directory) 2. /.mcp-cli.json (home directory) 3. /.config/mcp-cli/config.json Config Schema Note : The config ONLY specifies HOW to connect to servers.
