MCP Config Generator
Crea rapidamente un file claude_desktop_config.json
per configurare un MCP server senza scrivere manualmente il JSON.
Simplify Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server Setup
Configuring your claude_desktop_config.json file for Claude Desktop can be error-prone, especially when handling JSON syntax, environment variables, or escaping backslashes on Windows file paths. The Claude Desktop Config Generator solves this by allowing you to visually construct, format, and export valid Model Context Protocol (MCP) configurations instantly inside your browser.
Why Use a Client-Side Generator?
- 100% Local & Private: MCP configuration files often contain sensitive local directory paths and secret API tokens. This tool runs strictly in your browser’s RAM via client-side JavaScript—zero data is sent to external servers.
- Cross-Platform Path Handling: Automatically fixes escape backslashes (
\) for Windows users while preserving standard Unix slashes (/) for macOS and Linux. - Instant Export: Preview your JSON structure in real time, copy it to your clipboard with one click, or download the formatted
claude_desktop_config.jsonfile directly.
Where to Save Your Configuration File
Once you generate your JSON file, place it in the official Claude Desktop configuration folder:
- macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json - Windows:
%APPDATA%Claudeclaude_desktop_config.json
