## ๐Ÿš€ Usage

### Quick Start with npx

The easiest way to use this MCP server is via npx โ€” no installation required:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "midnight-nextjs-mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "midnight-nextjs-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}
```

### Configuration Examples

The MCP configuration format is standardized across most AI assistants. Below are platform-specific examples:

---

#### Universal MCP Configuration

Most MCP clients use this standard JSON format. Add to your client's MCP configuration file:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "midnight-nextjs-mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "midnight-nextjs-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}
```

---

#### VS Code (GitHub Copilot / Claude Extension)

Add to your VS Code `settings.json` or workspace `.vscode/mcp.json`:

```bash
npm install -g midnight-nextjs-mcp
```

Then configure:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "midnight-nextjs-mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "midnight-nextjs-mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

#### Local Development / From Source

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "midnight-nextjs-mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/midnight-nextjs-mcp/dist/index.js"]
    }
  }
}
```

---

#### Docker

Run the MCP server in a Docker container:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "midnight-nextjs-mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "fractionestate/midnight-nextjs-mcp:latest"]
    }
  }
}
```

### CLI Flags

```bash
# Enable both tool categories (default)
npx midnight-nextjs-mcp@latest

# Disable Midnight tools (Next.js only)
npx midnight-nextjs-mcp@latest --no-midnight

# Disable Next.js tools (Midnight only)
npx midnight-nextjs-mcp@latest --no-nextjs

# Check package versions on startup
npx midnight-nextjs-mcp@latest --check-versions

# Set version polling interval (default 24 hours)
npx midnight-nextjs-mcp@latest --poll-interval=12
```
