Why?

The MCP (Model Context Protocol) plugin for asdf simplifies the installation and management of various MCP-compatible servers. It provides a uniform interface for installing, switching between, and managing different versions of MCP servers, eliminating the complexity of manual installation processes for each server type.

Usage

# List all available MCP server types
asdf mcp list-servers

# Install a specific MCP server
asdf mcp install <server-name> <version>

# Set a specific MCP server as active
asdf mcp use <server-name> <version>

# Start an MCP server
asdf mcp start <server-name>

# Check status of running MCP servers
asdf mcp status

Supported MCP Servers

This plugin currently supports the following MCP-compatible servers:

  • claude-server: Anthropic's Claude API compatible server
  • mcp-core: Reference implementation of the MCP protocol
  • local-llm: For running local language models with MCP compatibility
  • custom-mcp: For custom MCP server implementations

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
