About NPM Types MCP Server

NPM Types MCP Server lets AI assistants retrieve TypeScript definitions for NPM packages. It supports requests for the latest or a specified package version through an MCP tool.

Key features

  1. 01Fetch TypeScript definitions by package and version
  2. 02Access definitions for specific versions
  3. 03Serve definitions as MCP resources

Use cases

  1. 01Inspect types before using an NPM package
  2. 02Provide package type context during code assistance

MCP support

Exposes the `npm-types` tool to fetch TypeScript definitions for a named NPM package and version, and provides definitions as MCP resources.

NPM Types MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for providing TypeScript type definitions as MCP Resources. This server allows AI assistants to fetch and use TypeScript type definitions from NPM packages.

Overview

This server implements the Model Context Protocol to provide TypeScript type definitions from NPM packages. It allows AI assistants to:

  • Fetch type definitions for any NPM package
  • Access the latest or specific versions of package types
  • Use these types to provide better code assistance

Prerequisites

  • Node.js (v23.6.0 or higher)
  • yarn (v1.22.22 or higher)

Installation

  1. Clone this repository:

    git clone https://github.com/JackVCurtis/npm-types-mcp-server.git
cd npm-types-mcp-server

  2. Install dependencies:

    yarn

Usage

Starting the Server

To start the server, run:

yarn start

The server will start and listen for MCP connections via stdio.

Configuring with Augment

To use this server with the Augment extension:

  1. Open Augment settings
  2. Add a new MCP server with the following configuration:
    • Name: NPM Types
    • Command: /absolute/path/to/node /absolute/path/to/npm-types-mcp-server/index.ts
    • Replace /absolute/path/to/node with the path to your Node.js executable
    • Replace /absolute/path/to/npm-types-mcp-server with the absolute path to this repository on your system
Using the Server

Once configured, you can use the server to fetch type definitions for NPM packages. The server provides a tool called npm-types that can be used to fetch type definitions.

Example usage in Augment:

Fetch the types for the @randsum/dice package version 1.0.0

API

Tools
npm-types

Fetches the types for an NPM package.

Parameters:

  • name (string): The name of the NPM package
  • version (string): The version of the NPM package

Returns:

  • The TypeScript type definitions for the specified package and version

Project Structure

  • index.ts: Main entry point for the server
  • package.json: Project dependencies and metadata
  • tsconfig.json: TypeScript configuration

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.
