# Claude MCP Setup for Windows

Easy setup script for installing and configuring Claude Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers on Windows.

## Prerequisites

1. Install Node.js and npm:
   - Download and install from [nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org/)
   - Or use a version manager like [fnm](https://github.com/Schniz/fnm)

2. Install Python:
   - Download and install from [python.org](https://python.org/)
   - Make sure to check "Add Python to PATH" during installation

3. Install Claude Desktop:
   - Download and install from [claude.ai/download](https://claude.ai/download)

## Installation Steps

1. Download `setup-mcp.py` from this repository

2. Open PowerShell and enable script execution:
```powershell
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser -Force

3. Run the setup script:

python setup-mcp.py

The script will automatically:

1. Get your Windows username
2. Install all JavaScript MCPs via npm
3. Install all Python MCPs via pip
4. Update your claude_desktop_config.json with the correct configurations
5. Set up proper paths for all installed packages

After installation:

1. Restart Claude Desktop
2. Enjoy your new MCP tools!

Adding API Keys

To add API keys:

1. Open setup-mcp.py in a text editor
2. Find the API_KEYS section at the top:

API_KEYS = {
    "GIT_PAT_TOKEN": "",  # GitHub Personal Access Token
    # Add new API keys here like:
    # "OPENAI_API_KEY": "",
    # "AZURE_API_KEY": ""
}

3. Add your new API key
4. Run the script again

Customization

Adding New Packages

Edit the PACKAGES_TO_INSTALL array at the top of the script:

PACKAGES_TO_INSTALL = [
    "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem",  # npm package
    "@patruff/server-terminator",               # npm package
    "mcp-server-sqlite",                        # pip package
    # Add new packages here
    "@your/new-package",                        # npm package
    "your-python-package"                       # pip package
]

Adding New MCP Configurations

MCPs are configured automatically based on installed packages. If you need custom configuration, you can modify the update_config() function in the script.

Troubleshooting

1. If you get execution policy errors:

   • Make sure you ran the Set-ExecutionPolicy command in PowerShell
   • Try running PowerShell as Administrator

2. If npm commands fail:

   • Check that Node.js is installed: node --version
   • If using fnm, ensure it's properly set up: fnm list

3. If pip commands fail:

   • Check that Python is installed: python --version
   • Ensure pip is up to date: python -m pip install --upgrade pip
