Getting Started

Installation checklist

Spin up the Source Parts MCP server in minutes and verify access before inviting your AI assistants.

Install the CLI

Use `npx @sourceparts/mcp` or add the package to your project. The CLI bundles the server, tooling manifest, and health endpoints.

# Run the Source Parts MCP server locally
npx @sourceparts/mcp serve --api-key $SOURCEPARTS_API_KEY

Run health checks

Visit `/mcp/health` to confirm readiness. The endpoint verifies downstream API connectivity and credential validity.

  • Automate health checks in your CI/CD pipeline before promoting infrastructure changes.
  • For private deployments register the health endpoint with your load balancer to remove unhealthy nodes automatically.
