The MCP protocol ensures that data is transferred securely and efficiently, while the protocol flow guarantees a seamless interaction between the client, server, and underlying tools.

🚀 Getting Started with Installation

Starting with an empty environment? Follow these steps to set up MCP Neurolora:

Step 1: Install Node.js

Regardless of your operating system, you will need to ensure that Node.js is installed. Here’s how to install it on different platforms:

• macOS:

  /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
  brew install node@18
  echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/node@18/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
  source ~/.zshrc
  

• Windows:

  Download Node.js 18 LTS from nodejs.org and run the installer. Open a new terminal to apply changes.

• Linux (Ubuntu/Debian):

  curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_18.x | sudo -E bash -
  sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
  

Step 2: Install Required Dependencies

Use the following commands to ensure uv and uvx are installed:

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
uv pip install uvx

Step 3: Verify Installation

After installing Node.js, verify your setup with these commands:

node --version  # Should show v18.x.x
npm --version   # Should show 9.x.x or higher
uv --version    # Should show installed version
uvx --version   # Should show installed version

Step 4: Configure MCP Server

Locate the client settings file and configure it with the necessary MCP server setup:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aindreyway-mcp-neurolora": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@aindreyway/mcp-neurolora@latest"],
      "env": {
        "NODE_OPTIONS": "--max-old-space-size=256",
        "OPENAI_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Step 5: Install Base MCP Servers

By asking your assistant to run the install_base_servers tool, you can ensure that all necessary base servers are installed and configured.

After installation:

1. Close VSCode completely (Cmd+Q on macOS, Alt+F4 on Windows).
2. Reopen VSCode.
3. The new servers should be ready for use.
