MCP Quick Start

Start a local MCP session and make a first protocol request.

MCP is the public integration API for NeuralScio. Start with a local stdio connection when the client and desktop application run on the same machine.

Start a session

Run the desktop executable with --mcp-stdio. The exact executable path depends on your build or release package. Do not hard-code a path from another machine.

Send JSON-RPC messages as newline-delimited JSON. Start with initialize, then request tools/list, resources/list, or prompts/list.

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{}}

Check the connection

The response advertises the server capabilities and a session identifier. Use the generated MCP Tools Reference for the current runtime snapshot.

Network transports require explicit configuration and security review. See MCP Security.
