How to use the MCP CLI server in Claude Desktop?

1. Edit claude_desktop_config.json: Navigate through Settings -> Developer -> Edit Configuration in Claude Desktop.
2. Add the following configuration to the servers section:

{
   "mcpServers": {
      "rs_filesystem": {
         "command": "/path/to/rs_filesystem",
         "args": [
            "--mcp"
         ],
         "env": {
            "MCP_RS_FILESYSTEM_ALLOWED_DIRECTORIES": "/path/number/one:/path/number/two"
         }
      }
   }
}

• Make sure to use the actual path of the rs_filesystem executable file.
• Ensure that the MCP_RS_FILESYSTEM_ALLOWED_DIRECTORIES environment variable is set to a colon-separated list of allowed directories. These tools are only effective within the specified directories.

If you want to view the MCP logs, use tail -n 20 -f ~/Library/Logs/Claude/rs_filesystem.logs.jsonl.
