### Description (declared)

# `mcp-this`

> An MCP Server that dynamically exposes CLI/bash commands as tools and prompt templates through YAML configuration files.

`mcp-this` lets you turn any command-line tool into an MCP tool and create structured prompt templates that any MCP Client (e.g. Claude Desktop) can use. Instead of writing code, you simply define commands, prompts, and their parameters in YAML files, and the MCP Server makes them available to MCP Clients like Claude Desktop.

**Core Value:** Transform CLI commands into MCP tools and create reusable prompt templates using simple YAML configuration.

## How It Works

Define **tools** (CLI commands) and **prompts** (AI templates) in YAML:

```yaml
tools:
  get-current-time:
    description: |
      Display the current date and time in various formats.
      
      Examples:
      - get_current_time(format="iso") → 2025-05-18T17:17:39Z
      - get_current_time(format="readable") → Friday, May 18, 2025 5:17 PM
    execution:
      command: >-
        if [ "<<format>>" = "iso" ]; then 
          date -u +"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ"; 
        elif [ "<<format>>" = "readable" ]; then 
          date "+%A, %B %d, %Y %I:%M %p"; 
        else 
          echo "ISO: $(date -u +"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ")"; 
          echo "Readable: $(date "+%A, %B %d, %Y %I:%M %p")"; 
        fi
    parameters:
      format:
        description: "Time format: iso, readable, or empty for both"
        required: false

  system-info:
    description: Get basic system information
    execution:
      command: uname -a && echo "CPU: $(nproc) cores"
    parameters: {}
