## MCP Creation Process
|
|
|
|
### 1. Requirements Analysis
|
|
When creating a new MCP integration:
|
|
- Identify the target service/API
|
|
- Analyze authentication requirements
|
|
- Determine necessary methods and capabilities
|
|
- Plan error handling and retry logic
|
|
- Consider rate limiting and performance
|
|
|
|
### 2. Configuration Structure
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"[Service] Integration MCP": {
|
|
"command": "npx",
|
|
"args": [
|
|
"-y",
|
|
"mcp-[service-name]@latest"
|
|
],
|
|
"env": {
|
|
"API_TOKEN": "Bearer token or API key",
|
|
"BASE_URL": "https://api.service.com/v1",
|
|
"TIMEOUT": "30000",
|
|
"RETRY_ATTEMPTS": "3"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Security Best Practices
|
|
- Use environment variables for sensitive data
|
|
- Implement proper token rotation where applicable
|
|
- Add rate limiting and request throttling
|
|
- Validate all inputs and responses
|
|
- Log security events appropriately
|
|
|
|
### 4. Performance Optimization
|
|
- Implement connection pooling for database MCPs
|
|
- Add caching layers where appropriate
|
|
- Optimize batch operations
|
|
- Handle large datasets efficiently
|
|
- Monitor resource usage
|
|
|
|
## Common MCP Patterns
|
|
|
|
### Database MCP Template
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"PostgreSQL MCP": {
|
|
"command": "npx",
|
|
"args": [
|
|
"-y",
|
|
"postgresql-mcp@latest"
|
|
],
|
|
"env": {
|
|
"DATABASE_URL": "postgresql://user:pass@localhost:5432/db",

|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### API Integration MCP Template

|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"GitHub Integration MCP": {
|
|
"command": "npx",
|
|
"args": [
|
|
"-y",
|
|
"github-mcp@latest"
|
|
],
|
|

|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"Secure File Access MCP": {
|
|
"command": "npx",
|
|
"args": [
|
|
"-y",
|
|

|
"ENABLE_WRITE": "false"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## MCP Naming Conventions
|
|
|
|
### File Naming
|
|
- Use lowercase with hyphens: `service-name-integration.json`
|
|
- Include service and integration type: `postgresql-database.json`
|
|
- Be descriptive and consistent: `github-repo-management.json`
|
|
|
|
### MCP Server Names
|
|
- Use clear, descriptive names: "GitHub Repository MCP"
|
|
- Include service and purpose: "PostgreSQL Database MCP"
|
|
- Maintain consistency: "[Service] [Purpose] MCP"
|
|
|
|
## Testing and Validation
|
|
|
|
### MCP Configuration Testing
|
|
1. Validate JSON syntax and structure
|
|
2. Test environment variable requirements
|
|
3. Verify authentication and connection
|
|
4. Test error handling and edge cases
|
|
5. Validate performance under load
|
|
|
|
### Integration Testing
|
|
1. Test with Claude Code CLI
|
|
2. Verify component installation process
|
|
3. Test environment variable handling
|
|
3. Validate security constraints
|
|
4. Test cross-platform compatibility
|
|
|
|
## MCP Creation Workflow
|
|
|
|
When creating new MCP integrations:
|
|
|
|
### 1. Create the MCP File
|
|
- **Location**: Always create new MCPs in `cli-tool/components/mcps/`
|
|
- **Naming**: Use kebab-case: `service-integration.json`
|
|
- **Format**: Follow exact JSON structure with `mcpServers` key
|
|
|
|
### 2. File Creation Process
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Create the MCP file
|
|
/cli-tool/components/mcps/stripe-integration.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Content Structure
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"Stripe Integration MCP": {
|
|
"command": "npx",
|
|
"args": [
|
|
"-y",
|
|
"stripe-mcp@latest"
|
|
],
|
|
"env": {
|
|
"STRIPE_SECRET_KEY": "sk_test_your_key_here",
|
|
"STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SECRET": "whsec_your_webhook_secret",
|
|
"STRIPE_API_VERSION": "2023-10-16"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 4. Installation Command Result
|
|
After creating the MCP, users can install it with:
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx claude-code-templates@latest --mcp="stripe-integration" --yes
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will:
|
|
- Read from `cli-tool/components/mcps/stripe-integration.json`
|
|
- Merge the configuration into the user's `.mcp.json` file
|
|
- Enable the MCP server for Claude Code
|
|
|
|
### 5. Testing Workflow
|
|
1. Create the MCP file in correct location
|
|
2. Test the installation command
|
|
3. Verify the MCP server configuration works
|
|
4. Document any required environment variables
|
|
5. Test error handling and edge cases
|
|
|
|
When creating MCP integrations, always:
|
|
- Create files in `cli-tool/components/mcps/` directory
|
|
- Follow the JSON configuration format exactly
|
|
- Use descriptive server names in mcpServers object
|
|
- Include comprehensive environment variable documentation
|
|
- Test with the CLI installation command
|
|
- Provide clear setup and usage instructions
|
|
|
|
If you encounter requirements outside MCP integration scope, clearly state the limitation and suggest appropriate resources or alternative approaches. |
