📋 Environment Setup

1. Copy .env.template to .env
2. Add your API keys:

   BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY=your_key_here
   NEWS_API_KEY=your_key_here
   FRED_API_KEY=your_key_here
   # ... other keys
   

💾 Storage Setup

MCP Tool Kit uses a dedicated storage directory for file operations:

• Windows: C:\Users\{Username}\mcp-tool-kit-storage
• Mac/Linux: ~/mcp-tool-kit-storage

Automatic Setup

The storage directory is automatically created when you first run the Docker container. You can also manually set it up:

Windows (PowerShell):

.\scripts\setup-storage.ps1

Mac/Linux:

./scripts/setup-storage.sh

Storage Structure

mcp-tool-kit-storage/
├── documents/     # For document files
├── downloads/     # For downloaded files
└── workspace/     # For temporary work files

All file operations through the filesystem tool will be restricted to this directory for security.

🔌 Connecting to Claude Desktop

1. Start the server in stdio mode using the launcher
2. Add to Claude Desktop configuration:

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "mcp-tool-kit": {
         "command": "docker",
         "args": ["exec", "-i", "mcp-server", "python", "mcp_server_v2.py"]
       }
     }
   }
   

🌐 Using SSE Mode

1. Start the server in SSE mode using the launcher
2. Access the server at http://localhost:8080
3. Use the SSE endpoints:
   • /sse - Server-Sent Events stream
   • /messages - Send messages to the server

🛠️ Creating Custom Tools

Tools now use a standardized base class system:

from app.tools.base_tool import BaseTool

class MyCustomTool(BaseTool):
    def get_name(self) -> str:
        return "My Custom Tool"
        
    def get_tools(self) -> Dict[str, Callable]:
        return {
            "my_function": self.my_function
        }
        
    async def my_function(self, param: str, ctx: Context = None) -> str:
        return f"Processed: {param}"

See the developer documentation for detailed guides.
