  1. 01Natural-language documentation search
  2. 02Metal code generation
  3. 03Getting-started guide resource
  4. 04Best-practices resource

Use cases

  1. 01Finding Metal examples and documentation
  2. 02Generating code for a Metal task

MCP support

It exposes documentation search and code generation as MCP tools, plus getting-started and best-practice guides as resources.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "metal": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/create-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}
Run commandnpx -y @modelcontextprotocol/create-server

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

Packages
npm@modelcontextprotocol/create-server

Tools

No tool list yet

Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.

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.
