• Configuration Management: Validate connector configurations
• Test Execution: Run connector tests with proper limits and constraints

MCP Client Configuration

To use with MCP clients like Claude Desktop, add the following configuration:

Stable Version (Latest PyPI Release)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "connector-builder-mcp--stable": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "airbyte-connector-builder-mcp",
      ]
    }
  }
}

      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "--from=git+https://github.com/airbytehq/connector-builder-mcp.git@main",
        "airbyte-connector-builder-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

    "connector-builder-mcp--local-dev": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--project",
        "/path/to/repos/connector-builder-mcp",
        "airbyte-connector-builder-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Complementary MCP Servers

If your agents don't already have files and/or internet access, you may want to add one or more of these:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    // ... other servers defined here ...
    "files-server": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-server-filesystem",
        "/path/to/your/build-artifacts/"
      ]
    },
    "playwright-web-browser": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
          "@playwright/mcp@latest",
          "--headless"
      ],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

If you'd like to time your agent, you can add this timer tool:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    // ... other servers defined here ...
    "time": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-server-time", "--local-timezone", "America/Los_Angeles"]
    }
  }
}

VS Code MCP Extension

For VS Code users with the MCP extension, use the included configuration in .vscode/mcp.json.
