Configuration
Claude Desktop
Edit your claude_desktop_config.json (typically at %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json on Windows or ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):
{
"mcpServers": {
"parallels-ras": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/RAS_MCP/build/index.js"],
"env": {
"RAS_HOST": "ras-server.example.com",
"RAS_USERNAME": "administrator",
"RAS_PASSWORD": "your-password",
"RAS_PORT": "20443",
"RAS_IGNORE_TLS": "true"
}
}
}
}
Claude Code
Add the MCP server to your project or global settings:
claude mcp add parallels-ras -- node /path/to/RAS_MCP/build/index.js
Set environment variables in your shell or in the Claude Code MCP configuration.
Cursor
In Cursor settings, go to Features > MCP Servers and add a new server:
- Name:
parallels-ras - Command:
node /path/to/RAS_MCP/build/index.js - Environment Variables:
RAS_HOST=ras-server.example.comRAS_USERNAME=administratorRAS_PASSWORD=your-password
OpenAI-Compatible Clients
For clients supporting the MCP standard via stdio transport, configure the server command as:
node /path/to/RAS_MCP/build/index.js
With the required environment variables (RAS_HOST, RAS_USERNAME, RAS_PASSWORD) set in the client's MCP server configuration.

Extending
To add a new tool module:
- Create a new file in
src/tools/(e.g.,notifications.ts) - Export a
register(server: McpServer): voidfunction - Use
rasClient.get("/api/...")to call RAS endpoints - Import and call your
registerfunction insrc/index.ts - Rebuild:
npm run build
See existing tool files for the pattern.
