Does mcp-cli support automation and scripting?

Yes, it includes a --json flag that provides structured output, making it easy to parse results with tools like jq or pipe them into other commands.

Can I provide complex JSON arguments to tools?

Yes, mcp-cli supports passing JSON strings directly, using heredocs for multi-line input, or piping JSON data from files via standard input.

How can I see what tools are available on a specific MCP server?

You can use the command 'mcp-cli ' to list all available tools and their parameters for that specific server.

What is the primary purpose of the mcp-cli skill?

It serves as a CLI interface for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, allowing you to call external tools and access data sources like GitHub or local databases.

How do I find a specific tool if I don't know which server it belongs to?

You can use the 'mcp-cli grep " "' command to search for tools by name across all connected MCP servers.
