Frequently asked questions

How do I create a new MCP server using this template?

Run `npx create-mcp-server my-new-mcp-server` in your terminal. You will be prompted for project name and description; the template files are then copied into a new directory.

What are the steps after creating the project?

Change to the new directory, run `npm install`, optionally run `npx husky install` for pre-commit hooks, then use `npm run dev` to start developing. Build for production with `npm run build` and start with `npm start`.

How do I add a new tool to the generated server?

Define types in `src/types`, implement a service in `src/services`, create tool params and registration in `src/tools`, then register the tool in `src/tools/index.ts`. Update configuration in `src/config/ConfigurationManager.ts` if needed.

What configuration is included?

The template includes TypeScript (`tsconfig.json`), ESLint (`.eslintrc.json`), Prettier (`.prettierrc.json`), and Husky for Git hooks. The project structure places configuration logic in `src/config/ConfigurationManager.ts`.

Can I use this template without publishing to npm?

Yes. If not published, clone the template directory locally and run `npm link` inside it. Then use `create-mcp-server my-new-mcp-server` from any location.
