Sponsored by Kisko Labs.

Requirements

• Ruby 3.1 or higher (Ruby 3.0 and earlier are not supported)

Quick Start

gem install status_mcp

Cursor IDE Configuration

For Cursor IDE, create or update .cursor/mcp.json in your project:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "status": {
      "command": "gem",
      "args": ["exec", "status_mcp"],
      "env": {
        "RUBY_VERSION": "3.4.7"
      }
    }
  }
}

Note: Using gem exec ensures the correct Ruby version is used.

Claude Desktop Configuration

For Claude Desktop, edit the MCP configuration file:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "status": {
      "command": "gem",
      "args": ["exec", "status_mcp"],
      "env": {
        "RUBY_VERSION": "3.4.7"
      }
    }
  }
}

Note: After updating the configuration, restart Claude Desktop for changes to take effect.
