## Features

- List and inspect tools, prompts, and resources
- Call tools with JSON or interactive parameter input
- Tab autocompletion for commands and tool names
- Command history (arrow keys)
- Rich terminal UI with syntax highlighting

## Installation

### Option 1: Install from PyPI (Recommended)

```bash
# Using uv (fast, Rust-based)
uv tool install repl-mcp

# Using pipx
pipx install repl-mcp

# Using pip
pip install repl-mcp
```

### Option 2: Run directly without installing

```bash
# Using uvx
uvx repl-mcp -c "npx mcp-remote https://mcp.atlassian.com/v1/mcp"
```

### Option 3: Development Setup

```bash
git clone https://github.com/kkokosa/repl-mcp.git
cd repl-mcp
pip install -e .
```

## Usage

> [!NOTE] 
> `mcp-remote` sidenote - Some MCP servers (like Atlassian) use OAuth for authentication and don't support direct HTTP connections. The `mcp-remote` MCP bridges this gap by handling OAuth flows locally and/or converting HTTP-based MCP servers to stdio transport. Beware that for OAuth-based servers, `mcp-remote` needs to receive the OAuth callback. If you're running in an environment without a public URL (like WSL or a remote server), you'll need a tunneling tool like [ngrok](https://ngrok.com/) to expose the callback endpoint.

### Stdio Transport (command-based)

```bash
# Remote MCP server via mcp-remote
repl-mcp -c "npx mcp-remote https://mcp.atlassian.com/v1/mcp"

# Local Python MCP server
repl-mcp -c "python my_mcp_server.py"

# Using uvx
repl-mcp -c "uvx mcp-server-sqlite --db-path test.db"
```
