## Setup

## Setup

```bash
git clone https://github.com/m13v/computer-use-ai-sdk.git
cd MCP-server-client-computer-use-ai-sdk
```

```bash
# Install Rust (if not already installed)
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
# Install Node.js and npm (if not already installed)
# Visit https://nodejs.org/ or use nvm
```

```bash
# run backend server
cd mcp-server-os-level
cargo run --bin server
# keep it running
```

### Option 1: CLI Interface

```bash
# run CLI interface client in a new terminal  (good for debugging)
cd mcp-client-cli-interface
npm install  # install dependencies first

# Set your Anthropic API key as an environment variable
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-xxxx  # Replace with your actual Anthropic API key
# For Windows, use: set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-xxxx
# For permanent setup, add to your shell profile (.bashrc, .zshrc, etc.)

npx tsx main.ts
```

### Option 2: Web app Interface

```bash
# run CLI interface client in a new terminal  (good for debugging)
cd mcp-client-nextjs
npm install  # install dependencies first

# Set API key via command line
echo "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-XXXXXXXX" > .env  # replace XXXXXXXX with your actual key
# Or append if you want to keep other env variables
# echo "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-XXXXXXXX" >> .env

npm run dev
# go to provided localhost web page
```

## Run an example chained tool

```bash
# Navigate to the server directory
cd mcp-server-chained-tools 

# Install dependencies
npm i 

# Set your API key (alternatively, create a .env file)
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant...

# Build the server
npm run build
```

## Test tools through the MCP Inspector

```bash
# Install the MCP Inspector globally if you don't have it yet
npm install -g @modelcontextprotocol/inspector

# Make sure you're in the right directory (where .env is located)

# Make sure your .env file has the necessary credentials
# It should contain: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant...

# Run the server with the inspector
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node build/server.js
```
