before you install - you'll need

The README does not document required environment variables for a basic install.

Claude Code

claude mcp add echology-io-decompose -- uvx decompose-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "echology-io-decompose": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "decompose-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

license MIT - declared in the repository

pypi package decompose-mcp - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.echology-io is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
