npmcreate-mcp-tools

# First Comment Hi Product Hunt community! 👋 I'm Hidetaka, the developer behind create-mcp-tools. When I noticed that the original Model Context Protocol server creation tool was archived, I saw an opportunity to maintain and enhance this valuable resource for AI developers. ## Why I built this The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a powerful way to extend AI assistants like Claude with custom capabilities - accessing local files, connecting to databases, performing specialized calculations, and more. But getting started with MCP development had a higher barrier to entry than necessary. This tool streamlines the entire process, generating a fully functional TypeScript MCP server with just one command. I've updated it to use the latest SDK (1.8.0), added Zod for robust validation, and simplified the API based on current best practices. ## Some technical details Beyond what's mentioned in the description, the tool: - Automatically configures Claude Desktop settings on macOS - Sets up a complete development environment with watch mode - Includes debugging tools via the MCP Inspector - Provides a template that demonstrates resources, tools, and prompts ## Use case examples Some interesting things you can build with MCP servers: - A local file browser that gives Claude access to specific directories - Custom data analyzers for proprietary data formats - Tools that connect to your organization's internal APIs - Specialized calculators or simulators that augment Claude's capabilities I'd love to hear what you're building or answer any questions about MCP development! The potential for AI extension through MCP is enormous, and I'm excited to see what the community creates.
