Installation for Development

Using Claude Desktop

To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:

On MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mongodb": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "~/mcp-mongo-server/build/index.js",
        "mongodb://muhammed:[email protected]/namespace"
      ]
    },
  }
}

Debugging

Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the MCP Inspector, which is available as a package script:

npm run inspector

The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.

Components

Resources

The server provides schema information for each collection in the database:

  • Collection Schemas (mongodb://<host>/<collection>/schema)
    • JSON schema information for each collection
    • Includes field names and data types
    • Automatically inferred from collection documents
