See documentation for installation instructions, usage examples, APIs, and more.
Configuration
By default, the addon exposes its MCP server at /mcp. You can configure a
different literal endpoint path in .storybook/main.ts:
export default {
addons: [
{
name: '@storybook/addon-mcp',
options: {
endpoint: '/custom-mcp',
},
},
],
};
The endpoint must be a URL pathname such as /custom-mcp or /tools/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.
