This is really cool ... I built my modified libraries and published them to npm under my @jimpick namespace. I also published my MCP app. So now I can just do this in ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
:
{
"mcpServers": {
"json-doc-server": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@jimpick/mcp-database-server"
]
}
}
}
And it will automatically install as long as Node.js is setup.
If you want to reset things, you can do: rm -rf ~/.fireproof /tmp/dist ~/.npm/_npx
