Overview

What is Random Tables MCP Server?

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for managing and rolling on random‑table assets used in tabletop RPGs. It follows a hexagonal architecture (ports & adapters) and lets you create, update, and roll on tables with template linking and weighted entries.

How to use Random Tables MCP Server?

Install manually by cloning the repository, running npm install and npm build, then point your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) to dist/index.js over stdio. The server exposes tools (create_table, roll_on_table, update_table, list_tables, get_table) and resources (table://{tableId}, tables://). Toggle between the two access models by setting the CAN_USE_RESOURCE environment variable.

Frequently asked questions

1

What does the server do?

It provides a drop‑in random‑table engine for tabletop RPGs, allowing you to create, roll on, and chain tables together via templates, all through the Model Context Protocol.

2

How do I install Random Tables MCP Server?

Clone the repository, run `npm install` and `npm run build`, then configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) to launch `dist/index.js` as a stdio server. The server is not yet published to npm.

3

Can I choose between MCP Resources and Tools?

Yes. Set the `CAN_USE_RESOURCE` environment variable to `true` to use Resources (`table://`), otherwise the server uses Tools (`get_table`). Default is `false` (Tools).

4

What are the system requirements?

Node.js v20 or higher and npm are required. The server runs locally via stdio.
