Installation
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Dicklesworthstone/ultimate_mcp_server.git
cd ultimate_mcp_server- Install dependencies:
pip install -e .- For Claude Desktop integration, add to your claude_desktop_config.json:
{

"ultimate-mcp": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["-m", "ultimate_mcp_server"],
"env": {
"PYTHONPATH": "."
}
}
}

Installation
Using uv (recommended)
- Install uv:
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh- Register the MCP server with your client. For Cursor, add to
.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"nvim-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["nvim-mcp"]
}
}
}For other clients like Claude Desktop, see the [configuration guide](config/README.md).
Using Nix
Ensure Nix is installed with flakes enabled:
{
"mcpServers": {
"nvim-mcp": {
"command": "nix",
"args": ["run", "github:paulburgess1357/nvim-mcp"]
}
}
}- Add agent rules to specify when and how the AI should use the tools. See the [configuration guide](config/README.md#2-add-agent-rules).
- Start Neovim. It will be auto-discovered on most Linux systems.
