## Configure MCP clients

Add a stdio server entry in your MCP client config (for example, Claude Desktop,

      }
    }
  }
}
```

If you prefer running via Python or uv:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "openrouter-banana": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "banana_mcp"],
      "env": {
        "OPENROUTER_API_KEY": "your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
```
