What is the MCP Use MCP server?

MCP Use becomes available to MCP clients through the mcp use mcp server. .

What MCP Use does

mcp-use is the fullstack MCP framework to build MCP Apps for ChatGPT / Claude & MCP Servers for AI Agents.

Tools it exposes

Once connected, the assistant can call these 10 tools directly:

  • DiscordJoin our community
  • Documentationmcp-use.com/docs
  • Websitemanufact.com
  • X.com — Follow Manufact
  • Contributing — See CONTRIBUTING.md
  • Preview — Name
  • Package — Description
  • mcp-use — Complete MCP server and MCP agent SDK
  • create-mcp-use-app — Project scaffolding tool
  • TypeScript — const server = new MCPServer({ name: "my-server", version: "1.0.0", });

Installing the mcp use mcp server

The server is distributed via npm as create-mcp-use-app, 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.

Where it fits

Communication servers earn their keep on volume — summarising channels and threads that would otherwise cost you an hour of scrollback. MCP Use sits in that group, and the shape of its toolset — Discord, Documentation, Website among others — tells you what it is really for. Worth comparing against the other communication servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.

Practical notes

  • This is a hosted server — you point your client at an endpoint rather than running a local process, so there is nothing to keep updated on your machine.
  • With 10 tools exposed, expect a noticeable bump in prompt size — disable it in projects that never use MCP Use.
  • Maintained by mcp-use, written in Python.
  • MCP clients ask for confirmation before each tool call by default. Keep that on while you learn what the mcp use mcp server actually does with your data.
  • Every entry in this directory is reviewed by hand before it goes live, and details are checked against the project's own documentation.

How to install the MCP Use MCP server

```python
import asyncio
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
from mcp_use import MCPAgent, MCPClient

async def main():
    config = {
        "mcpServers": {
            "filesystem": {
                "command": "npx",
                "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/tmp"]
            }
        }
    }

    client = MCPClient.from_dict(config)
    llm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o")
    agent = MCPAgent(llm=llm, client=client)

    result = await agent.run("List all files in the directory")
    print(result)

asyncio.run(main())

Configuration as documented by the project. Restart the client after saving.

Example prompts to try
