a cli/mcp server tool for managing mcp server json config file with version control, profiles and multi-client support
A command-line tool to manage Claude MCP servers configuration with version control and profiling. Now also has a companion mcp server to let llms config for you.
[!IMPORTANT]
I always recommend making a manual backup of the mcp configuration before making any changes. Although I tried to cover some error handling in the code, it is definitely not inclusive.
pip install mcp-serverman
or from GitHub for the latest debug version:
pip install git+https://github.com/benhaotang/mcp-serverman.git
Should be available on Windows, Linux(tested) and MacOS. If the path for a certain platform is wrong, open an issue.
After installation, you can use the mcp-serverman
command directly in terminal:
## Display help message
mcp-serverman

mcp-serverman client init
