Usage
This server is designed to be used with Bob AI Assistant through the MCP protocol. Once configured in Bob's MCP settings, the tools will be automatically available.
Configuration
Add to Bob's MCP settings (~/.bob/settings/mcp_settings.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"bob-demo": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/Users/ahmedchaudhry/Documents/IBM Bob/MCP/bob-demo-server/build/index.js"],
"disabled": false,
"alwaysAllow": [],
"disabledTools": []
}
}
}
Example Usage
Once configured, you can ask Bob naturally:
- "List all files in the current directory"
- "Analyze this project's structure"
- "Find all TODO comments in the code"
- "Show me what I've changed in git"
- "What functions are defined in this file?"
- "How complex is this code?"
Bob will automatically use the appropriate tools to answer your questions.
