Installation

For Claude Desktop

  1. Install the package:
npm install -g fake-store-mcp
  1. Configure Claude Desktop:

Edit your Claude Desktop configuration file:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
  • Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Add the following configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fake-store": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "fake-store-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Alternative (if installed globally):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fake-store": {

    }
  }
}
  1. Restart Claude Desktop

The tools will now be available in your Claude conversations!

For Other MCP Clients

If you're using another MCP-compatible client, you can run the server directly:

npx fake-store-mcp

Or install it locally in your project:

npm install fake-store-mcp
