Usage

1. Ensure you have Bun installed.
2. Clone the repo and install dependencies:

   git clone https://github.com/dexaai/mcp-quickstart.git mcp-quickstart && cd mcp-quickstart && bun install
   

3. Copy the absolute path to the server:

   realpath server.ts | pbcopy
   

4. Open the Claude desktop app config:

   vim ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
   

5. Add the server config with the path from step 3 instead of <path/to/repo>/server.ts.

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "weather-quickstart": {
         "command": "bun",
         "args": ["<path/to/repo>/server.ts"]
       }
     }
   }
   

6. Restart the Claude desktop app and ask for the weather.
