Interactive mcp mcp server connects Interactive MCP to AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. A MCP Server implemented in Node.js/TypeScript, facilitating interactive communication between LLMs and users. Note: This server is designed to run locally alongside the MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop, VS Code), as it needs direct access to the user's operating system to display notifications.
A MCP Server implemented in Node.js/TypeScript, facilitating interactive communication between LLMs and users. Note: This server is designed to run locally alongside the MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop, VS Code), as it needs direct access to the user's operating system to display notifications and command-line prompts.
Once connected, the assistant can call these 9 tools directly:
request_user_input — Asks the user a question and returns their answer. Can display predefined optionsmessage_complete_notification — Sends a simple OS notificationstart_intensive_chat — Initiates a persistent command-line chat sessionask_intensive_chat — Asks a question within an active intensive chat sessionstop_intensive_chat — Closes an active intensive chat sessionBuild — ** pnpm buildLint — ** pnpm lintFormat — ** pnpm formatPrerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this serverThe server is distributed via npm as pnpm, so most clients can run it without a manual build step. Add it to your MCP client's configuration and restart the client to pick it up — the copy-paste configs for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are on this page.
package.json for version compatibility. - pnpm: Used for package management. Install via npm install -g pnpm after installing Node.js.Developer-tool servers are usually the first ones people connect, because they turn "help me with this code" into an assistant that can actually read the repo and act on it. Interactive MCP sits in that group, and the shape of its toolset — request_user_input, message_complete_notification, start_intensive_chat among others — tells you what it is really for. Worth comparing against the other developer tools servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.
