Setting up with Claude for Desktop

1. Open Claude for Desktop
2. Edit the config file: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)
3. Add the server configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "runpod": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/runpod-mcp-server/build/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "RUNPOD_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Make sure to replace the "args": ["/path/to/runpod-mcp-server/build/index.js"] with the path to the build folder in the repository.

4. Restart Claude for Desktop

Security Considerations

This server requires your RunPod API key, which grants full access to your RunPod account. For security:

• Never share your API key
• Be cautious about what operations you perform
• Consider setting up a separate API key with limited permissions
• Don't use this in a production environment without proper security measures
