Usage

Option 1: Claude Desktop (Stdio)

{
  "mcpServers": {

Option 2: Web Mode (SSE) - "Un-containerized"

If you are having permission issues with Claude Desktop, you can run the MCP server as a standalone web server:

1. Run the server:

   node build/index.js --sse

2. The server will be available at http://localhost:3000/sse.

3. You can connect to this URL using any MCP-compatible web client or custom integration.
