FAQ from Generic MCP Server

How do I install and build Generic MCP Server?

Clone the repository, run pnpm install in the project directory, then pnpm run build to compile the TypeScript code.

How do I add new tools to Generic MCP Server?

Define a tool schema using Zod, register it in the ListToolsRequestSchema handler, and implement its logic in the CallToolRequestSchema handler following the examples in index.ts.

How do I configure Generic MCP Server with Claude Desktop?

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json and add a server entry under mcpServers with the command node, the path to the built dist/index.js, and any required environment variables (e.g., DD_API_KEY, DD_APP_KEY, DD_HOST).

What are the runtime dependencies of Generic MCP Server?

The server requires Node.js and depends on @modelcontextprotocol/sdk, zod, zod-to-json-schema, and TypeScript development tools.

What environment variables does Generic MCP Server expect?

The README provides an example for a Datadog integration using DD_API_KEY, DD_APP_KEY, DD_HOST, and NODE_ENV. The actual required variables depend on the tools you implement.
