      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "repomix",
        "--mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Add ROS MCP Server

Install / run

claude mcp add ros-mcp -- uvx ros-mcp --transport=stdio

Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ros-mcp-server": {
