If you have problem of installation on Windows, you can refrer to this article

Running with HTTP (SSE + Streamable)

npx @slow-groovin/unstorage-mcp --http

related arguments

arg default
--http enable http transport instead of stdio false
-p, --port listening port 3000
-h, --host listening host localhost

Example prompt for use

The process has produced a key-value result: "fs_base:recommend_site"="www.api2o.com", store it.

args

--disable-modify

Default: false

Disable tools with modify functionality like setItem, setItems ...

environment variables

for the concept of base and mountpoint, please refer to the doc of unstorage

Set environment variables in the terminal or in the .env file

redis

if REDIS_URL is set, a redis storage will be mounted

Syntax Description Default Value Optional
REDIS_URL redis connect url, eg: redis://default:123456@localhost:6379
REDIS_BASE base of redisDriver
REDIS_MOUNT_POINT mountpoint of this storage "/"

mongodb

if MONGODB_URL is set, a mongodb storage will be mounted

Syntax Description Default Value Optional
MONGODB_URL mongodb connect url, eg: mongodb://user:pass@host:port
MONGODB_DB_NAME mongodb database name, eg: test
MONGODB_COLLECTION_NAME mongodb collection name, eg: mycollection
MONGODB_MOUNT_POINT mountpoint of this storage "/"

filesystem

if FS_BASE is set, a redis storage will be mounted

Syntax Description Default Value Optional
FS_BASE base of fsDriver, path of filesystem
FS_MOUNT_POINT mountpoint of this storage "/"

http server

if HTTP_BASE is set, a http storage will be mounted

Syntax Description Default Value Optional
HTTP_BASE base of httpDriver, endpoint of http server
HTTP_MOUNT_POINT mountpoint of this storage "/"
HTTP_HEADERS headers for http requests, eg: Authorization=Bear 123;A=1;B=2

memory

If there is no mount on root("/"), a memory driver will be mounted automatically on "/" (same behaviour of unstorage).

extend guide

  1. clone this repo
  2. copy src/storage/redis.ts to a new file and modify it to your desired driver(unjs/unstorage is super easy to learn)
  3. test and verify that it is effective
  4. (optional) pull a merge request

If you are not a typescript developer, please submit a issue to ask for other drivers support.

prompts for cursor/cline assisted programming

@/src/storage/mongodb.ts , please implement this file:
1. you need to fetch information using the storage type's corresponding Doc URL (https://unstorage.unjs.io/drivers/<storage type>).
2. you can refer to examples in @/src/adapter/redis.ts and @/src/storage/http.ts.
3. You are only responsible for generating the code and do not need to perform testing.

If you have not installed fetch MCP server, delete the first sentence
