## Usage
### Run without config file
```bash
npx @wong2/mcp-cli
```
This will use the config file of Claude Desktop.
### Run with a config file
```bash
npx @wong2/mcp-cli -c config.json
```
The config file has the same format as the Claude Desktop config file.
### Run servers from NPM
```bash
npx @wong2/mcp-cli npx <package-name> <args>
```
### Run locally developed server
```bash
npx @wong2/mcp-cli node path/to/server/index.js args...
```
### Connect to a running server over SSE
```bash
npx @wong2/mcp-cli --sse http://localhost:8000/sse
```
You need to first start an MCP server running over [SSE transport](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/concepts/transports#server-sent-events-sse).
