Install MCP Server Locally (for development and debugging)
The InfraNodus MCP server can be installed locally on your own machine. It is open-source, so you can modify it, add more tool calls, and deploy it anywhere you want. This can be a more interesting setup if you want to add additional tools or modify the tool calling following our API documentation. Here's how you can install the InfraNodus MCP server locally:
Install the latest version of the MCP server from our GitHub repository using Terminal:
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/mcp-server-infranodus.git
cd mcp-server-infranodus
npm install
npm run build
Create the `.env` file and add your InfraNodus API key. You don't need to have the API key but you will then hit rate limits after a while.
INFRANODUS_API_KEY=your_api_key
Start and build the server using Terminal:
npm run inspect
Claude Desktop Configuration (macOS)
open ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Add the InfraNodus server configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"infranodus": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/mcp-server-infranodus/dist/index.js"],
"env": {
"INFRANODUS_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}
Adding Tools to the InfraNodus MCP Server
If you install the InfraNodus MCP server locally, you can add more tools to it. The easiest way to do that is to read through our API documentation and create your own tools based on the already existing ones.
If you don't know how to code but would like to have a certain tool added, you can request it via our support portal, Discord server, or GitHub issues on the repository page.
