Probe MCP Server

One command to diagnose your MCP server. Tests every tool, resource, and prompt your server exposes - then gives you a health report with a pass/fail scorecard. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting science & health tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Probe

Claude Code

claude mcp add incultnitollc-mcp-probe -- npx -y @incultnitollc/mcp-probe

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "incultnitollc-mcp-probe": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@incultnitollc/mcp-probe"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
