get-mcp-server-info
Get detailed information about a specific MCP server
LABSCO SUMMARY
A guided path from 'what does my project use' to servers installed in your config.
The recommend-and-install pair is the useful loop: an agent analyses the stack, proposes servers with a reason for each, and — after you confirm — writes them into your config, with install-mcp-package as an escape hatch for anything outside the catalogue.
What it is
A server that turns MCP-server discovery into tools: an assistant can recommend servers for a stack, search a catalogue, read a server's details, and install a chosen one into your configuration.
What you get
- recommend-mcp-servers suggests servers based on tech-stack keywords; search-mcp-servers searches the catalogue by name, description, or category
- get-mcp-server-info returns detail on a specific server
- install-mcp-server writes a catalogued server into your local config; install-mcp-package installs any server directly from its npm or PyPI package name
- Paired with prompts that guide tech-stack analysis before recommending
Requirements
Runs through npx; Node is the prerequisite. No account or key.
Setup effort
One command — npm install -g @oglabs/mcp
USE CASES
01
Finding servers that fit a project
recommend-mcp-servers takes the stack's keywords and returns suggested servers with a reason for each.
02
Looking up what a server does
search-mcp-servers finds candidates by keyword and get-mcp-server-info returns the detail on one.
03
Installing a chosen server
install-mcp-server writes a catalogued server into your config, and install-mcp-package handles anything by its package name.
5 tools
Counted once with only startup setup. Other versions, modes or optional credentials may expose a different list.
install-mcp-package
Install any MCP server directly from npm/PyPi package name to Claude Desktop configuration
install-mcp-server
Install an MCP server to the local .claude.json configuration or Claude Desktop config
recommend-mcp-servers
Recommend MCP servers based on provided technology stack keywords. Use prompts first to analyze tech stack, then provide the keywords to this tool.
search-mcp-servers
Search through available MCP servers by name, description, or category
BEFORE YOU INSTALL
What to know first
Tools you get
5 tools when we connected. install-mcp-package is not in the documentation, which names four tools. The five Smart Prompts are prompts, not tools.
Requires

Where it runs
The documented client runs the server on your machine.
