Setup

This guide will help you setup the MCP server to connect Maxun to your local LLMs. In this guide, we will be taking an example of configuring the MCP server for Claude Desktop.

Prerequisites​

  • Any local LLM with MCP support

Steps​

1. Build the MCP worker​

Execute the below command to build the MCP server.

npm run mcp:build

This will generate a dist folder in your root directory with the mcp-worker.js file.

2. Generate API Key​

Generate the API Key. You can find your API key in the "API Key" section on Maxun Dashboard.

3. Configure the MCP Server JSON file​

Make sure your server is up and running. Configure your build MCP server path, API key and backend url.

  • Navigate to claude desktop
  • Go to File -> Settings -> Developer -> Edit Config
  • Enter the below configuration for the json file
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "maxun": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/path/to/your/project/dist/mcp-worker.js"
      ],
      "env": {
        "MCP_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here",
        "BACKEND_URL": "your_backend_url_here",
        "MCP_WORKER": "true"
      }
    }
  }
}

After following the steps restart the claude desktop application. You'll be able to access all the tools provided by the MCP server on successful configuration.
