Fine-grained control over model context protocol (MCP) clients, servers, and tools. Context is God.
MCPGod is a CLI tool designed to help developers manage MCP servers with speed and ease. Whether you need to add, run, list, or remove servers—or even interact with server tools—MCPGod provides a streamlined interface to handle all these tasks on Windows, macOS, or Linux.
Install mcpgod globally using npm:
npm install -g mcpgod
Verify the installation:
mcpgod --version
Or run directly with npx.
npx -y mcpgod
Access the CLI with the mcpgod command (or npx -y mcpgod). Below are some common examples:
Add a Server to a Client
Add an MCP server to a client (e.g., Claude) with mcpgod add <SERVER> -c <CLIENT>:
mcpgod add @modelcontextprotocol/server-everything -c claude
Only Add Specific Tools to a Client
Only add specific tools to a client with mcpgod add <SERVER> -c <CLIENT> --tools=<COMMA_DELIMITED_LIST>:
mcpgod add @modelcontextprotocol/server-everything -c claude --tools=echo,add
List Servers for a Client
List all configured servers for a specific client with mcpgod list -c <CLIENT>:
mcpgod list -c claude
Remove a Server
Remove an MCP server from your client's configuration with mcpgod remove <SERVER> -c <CLIENT>:
mcpgod remove @modelcontextprotocol/server-everything -c claude
Run a Server
Run a server process with detailed logging with mcpgod run <SERVER>:
mcpgod run @modelcontextprotocol/server-everything mcpgod run ./mcp-server.py mcpgod run ./mcp-server-node.mjs
List Available Tools for a Server
Display the list of tools available on a server with mcpgod tools <SERVER>:
mcpgod tools @modelcontextprotocol/server-everything mcpgod tools ./mcp-server.py mcpgod tools ./mcp-server-node.mjs
Call a Specific Tool on a Server
Interact with a tool by passing key-value properties with mcpgod tool <SERVER> <TOOL> [optional parameters]:
mcpgod tool @modelcontextprotocol/server-everything add a=59 b=40 mcpgod tool ./mcp-server.py echo message=hi mcpgod tool ./mcp-server-node.mjs echo message=hi
For a complete list of commands and options, simply run:
mcpgod --help
When running a server, mcpgod logs output to:
~/mcpgod/logs
Each log file is organized by server name and timestamped to help you trace and debug any issues that arise.
mcpgod is built with the Oclif framework and uses the Model Context Protocol SDK for robust interactions with MCP servers.
Clone the repository to get started with development:
git clone https://github.com/mcpgod/cli.git
cd mcpgod
npm installRun the CLI in development mode:
./bin/dev
Automatic publishing is handled by the version, tag and github release workflow. A new npm version is published whenever a version bump is merged into the main branch. The workflow can also be triggered manually from the Actions tab.
To enable publishing, set the following repository secrets:
NPM_TOKEN – authentication token for npm.GH_EMAIL and GH_USERNAME – used by the README update step.Once the secrets are configured, pushing a new version or running the workflow manually will build the project, create a GitHub release and publish the package to npm.
Before committing changes to workflows, you can lint them locally:
npm run lint:workflows
Contributions are always welcome! To contribute:
git checkout -b feature/your-feature
