Question 1

What does the server do?

Accepted Answer

It exposes Minesweeper game actions as MCP tools, allowing an agent to play the game through the MCP client.

Question 2

What are the runtime requirements?

Accepted Answer

Node.js and npm are needed to build and run the server. The separate Minesweeper game server must also be running locally.

Question 3

Where does game state live?

Accepted Answer

Game state is managed entirely by the running game server, not by this MCP server.

Question 4

What credentials does it need?

Accepted Answer

It reads `DEBUG` from the environment. Store these in your client's env block or a secrets manager — never commit them to a repository — and grant the narrowest scope that still covers your use case.
