Summary
Component names and prop shapes stop being something to remember or guess.
Two of the four tools take a component name and two help you find one, which covers both halves of the problem: recalling what the library has, and recalling how the thing you picked is used. Nothing here writes to your project — the server answers questions and the code stays yours to paste.
What it is
A lookup service for the shadcn/ui component library: four read-only tools that list the components, return one component's details, return its examples, and search by keyword.
What you get
- The list of available shadcn/ui components
- Detailed information for a component you name
- Usage examples for that component
- Keyword search across components, for when you know the behaviour you want but not the component's name
Requirements
Npx on your PATH. No account, no key.
Setup effort
One command — npx -y shadcn-ui-mcp-server
