Installation

This is a collection of examples, not a server itself. Each example has its own setup requirements. For the filesystem example:

  1. Clone the repository
  2. Navigate to the example directory: cd mcp-server-filesystem
  3. Build the project: mvn package
  4. Run the server: java -jar target/mcp-server-filesystem-*.jar

Claude Desktop Configuration

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-java-sdk-examples": {
      "command": "java",
      "args": ["-jar", "/path/to/mcp-server-filesystem/target/mcp-server-filesystem-*.jar"]
    }
  }
