}

This generator runs only in your browser and asks for no tokens. Review every server and folder permission before use. The official servers are reference implementations, not a guarantee that every setup is production-ready. Time and Fetch also require uvx.

Use the result safely

Start with one server and the smallest folder it needs.
Paste the JSON into Claude Desktop's configuration file.
Restart Claude Desktop and confirm the server appears.
Test a read-only task before allowing changes.

If a server fails, verify that Node.js and npx are installed. Time and Fetch require Python's uvx. Do not fix command errors by adding unknown folders to a global PATH.

Check the official MCP reference server repository before installing.
