Do I need to install MCPorter to use it?

No, you can run it directly using npx mcporter, though global installation via npm or Homebrew is available for faster access.

How do I see which MCP tools are available?

You can use 'npx mcporter list' to see all discovered servers and 'npx mcporter list [server_name]' to inspect specific tools and their schemas.

Does it support remote MCP servers?

Yes, MCPorter supports HTTP MCP endpoints using the --http-url flag for ad-hoc connections to remote services.

Can I use this for browser automation?

Yes, you can connect to servers like chrome-devtools-mcp via stdio to perform web scraping, screenshots, and DOM inspection directly from the CLI.

Can I generate code with MCPorter?

Yes, the skill includes commands to generate standalone CLIs or TypeScript client wrappers and type definitions based on any MCP server's schema.

API開発

Simplifies access to Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers through a flexible CLI for tool discovery, ad-hoc connections, and seamless tool execution.

概要

MCPorter acts as a powerful bridge for Claude Code, allowing developers to interact with any MCP server without the need for manual local installation. It streamlines the workflow by providing ergonomic commands to discover available tools, inspect their JSON schemas, and execute calls using simple syntax. Whether connecting to local stdio servers, remote HTTP endpoints, or generating TypeScript client wrappers, MCPorter enhances Claude's capabilities with on-demand access to external integrations like browser automation, issue trackers, and custom APIs.
