You are deploying a TypeScript MCP server that provides a simple notes system. It exposes text notes as resources, offers a tool to create new notes, and includes a prompt to summarize stored notes. This setup lets you manage notes programmatically and derive overviews via an MCP client.

How to use

Connect to the server with your MCP client to list and access notes using note:// URIs. Each note returns its title, content, and metadata with a plain text mime type for straightforward access. Use the create_note tool to add new notes by providing a title and content. When you need a quick overview of your notes, invoke the summarize_notes prompt to generate a structured summary that includes all stored note contents as embedded resources.

Typical usage patterns include: creating notes, retrieving note content by URI, listing notes, and generating a summary of all notes. The system is designed to be simple to experiment with during development and easy to extend with new notes or prompts.

How to install

Prerequisites you need before installing this MCP server:

Node.js installed on your development machine.

Follow these steps to set up and run the server locally:

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the server
npm run build

# (Optional) Start for development with auto-rebuild
npm run watch

# Run the built server directly if you have a prebuilt index
node /private/tmp/ming-mcp-server/build/index.js

Configuration and debugging

To use with Claude Desktop, configure the MCP server by adding a JSON entry that runs the server locally. Place this configuration in the specified path for your operating system.

{
   "ming-mcp-server": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/private/tmp/ming-mcp-server/build/index.js"
      ]
    }
}

Debugging

MCP servers communicate over stdio, so debugging can be challenging. Use the MCP Inspector to access debugging tools in your browser. Run this script to start the inspector:

npm run inspector

Available tools

create_note

Create a new text note by providing a title and content; the note is stored in the server state for later retrieval and listing.
