{"library":"shadcn-ui-mcp-server","title":"shadcn/ui MCP Server","description":"The shadcn-ui MCP Server is a TypeScript-based application that acts as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, providing AI assistants with structured and up-to-date reference information for shadcn/ui components. It scrapes and caches data directly from the official shadcn/ui documentation site and its GitHub repository, ensuring AI agents have access to accurate component descriptions, installation instructions, usage examples, props, variants, and code samples. This enables AI tools like Claude Desktop, Windsurf, Cursor, and others to generate more reliable and contextually appropriate UI code. The package is currently at version 0.1.2, suggesting an early but active development phase, with a focus on seamless integration with AI-powered development workflows to mitigate issues like outdated patterns or hallucinated properties commonly seen in AI-generated UIs without such specific context.","language":"javascript","status":"active","last_verified":"Sun Apr 19","install":{"commands":["npm install shadcn-ui-mcp-server"],"cli":null},"imports":[],"auth":{"required":false,"env_vars":[]},"quickstart":{"code":"npx -y shadcn-ui-mcp-server\n# For higher rate limits, especially during development:\n# GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN='ghp_YOUR_TOKEN_HERE' npx -y shadcn-ui-mcp-server\n\n# To debug server communication via a browser UI:\nnpm install # if not already installed\nnpm run inspector","lang":"bash","description":"Demonstrates how to run the shadcn/ui MCP server using npx and how to access its debugging tools.","tag":null,"tag_description":null,"last_tested":null,"results":[]},"compatibility":null}
