- Search for components by keyword
Functionality
This server scrapes and caches information from:
- The official shadcn/ui documentation site (https://ui.shadcn.com)
- The shadcn/ui GitHub repository
It provides structured data including:
- Component descriptions
- Installation instructions
- Usage examples
- Props and variants
- Code samples
Development
Install dependencies:
npm install
Build the server:
npm run build
For development with auto-rebuild:
npm run watch
Installation
To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:
On MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"shadcn-ui-server": {
"command": "/path/to/shadcn-ui-server/build/index.js"
}
}
}
Debugging
Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the MCP Inspector, which is available as a package script:
npm run inspector
The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
