MCP Routine

🚀 MCP Routine

MCP Routine is a MCP server that enables you to create custom tools instantly. It combines actions performed by multiple MCP tools into a reusable routine, which is extremely useful for streamlining repetitive tasks.

🚀 Quick Start

MCP Routine simplifies the process of reusing a sequence of MCP tool actions. By creating routines, you can save time and ensure consistency in your tasks.

✨ Features

• Time - saving: Eliminate the need to repeatedly call the same set of tools.
• Consistency: Maintain a uniform way of performing tasks by using pre - defined routines.
• Full context: Routines include all the necessary tools and inputs for a complete task.

📦 Installation

Copy the following into your MCP client's JSON file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "myRoutines": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-routine"],
      "env": {
        "FILENAME": "/path/to/your/mcp-routines.json"
      }
    }
  }
}

💻 Usage Examples

Basic Usage

1. Use AI to execute tools and complete your task.
2. After the task is done, tell the AI to create a new routine for it.
3. Refresh your MCP client to update the tools and then use the routine to execute the same sequence of tools.

The MCP server provides the following tools for routine management:

create-routine
load-routines
update-routine
delete-routine

Advanced Usage

Let's take an example of researching a topic and writing the result into a new page in a given folder:

**User**: "add an Onboarding page to the Getting started page

**AI**: I'll help you add an "Onboarding" page to the Getting Started page. First, I'll need to find the Getting Started page ID.

Let me search for it:
Great, I found the Getting Started page. Now I'll create a new "Onboarding" page under it:

I've successfully created a new page titled "Onboarding" under the Getting Started page. The page has been created with a basic title, and you can now access it at the URL provided in the response. Would you like me to add any specific content to this new Onboarding page?

**User**:Yes, add some placeholder information for a standard onboarding experience

**AI**: I'll add some structured placeholder content to the Onboarding page to outline a standard onboarding experience.

**User**: now convert all these steps into a route to insert a page into a parent page

**AI**: I'll create a routine that captures the steps we just performed to insert a page into a parent page with structured content. This will make it reusable for future similar tasks.

I've created a routine called insert_structured_page that captures the workflow we used. The routine has three main steps:
1. Search for the parent page using its title to get the page ID
2. Create a new page under the found parent page
3. Add structured content to the new page with sections and bullet points

The routine is parameterized so you can customize:
- parent_page_title: The title of the parent page to search for
- new_page_title: The title for the new page
- welcome_message: Introduction text for the page
- section1_title: Title for the first section (can add more sections as needed)
- bullet_point1, bullet_point2, bullet_point3: Bullet points under sections
- help_message: The help/support message at the bottom

To use this routine, you would just need to provide these parameters with your desired content, and it will create a structured page with consistent formatting.
