  • generate_commerce - Generate fake commerce data (products, prices, etc.)
  • And many more modules from Faker.js
Features
  • Support for multiple locales (en, ja, fr, etc.)
  • Customizable field selection for each data type
  • Configurable parameters (length, count, min/max values, etc.)

Development

Installation

To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:

On MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "faker-server": {
      "command": "/path/to/faker-server/build/index.js"
    }
  }
}
Debugging

Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the MCP Inspector, which is available as a package script:

npm run inspector

The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.

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.
