MCP Server to exec local cli commands
Set up your environment
First, let’s install uv and set up our Python project and environment:
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
Make sure to restart your terminal afterwards to ensure that the uv command gets picked up.
Now, let’s create and set up our project:
Create a new directory for our project
uv init exec cd exec
Create virtual environment and activate it
uv venv source .venv/bin/activate
Install dependencies
uv add "mcp[cli]"
