Otter MCP Server Setup
This skill guides the installation and configuration of the @o3r/mcp MCP server.
Installation
The @o3r/mcp server runs via npx and requires no permanent installation. Configure it in your MCP settings with:
{
"@o3r/mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "-p", "@o3r/mcp", "o3r-mcp-start"]
}
}
Claude Code
Add the above configuration to .mcp.json at the project root.
VS Code
Add the following to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"Otter": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "-p", "@o3r/mcp", "o3r-mcp-start"]
}
}
Metrics (optional)
Ask the user if they want to enable anonymous usage metrics to help improve Otter. If they agree, add an "env" block to the configuration:
"env": {
"O3R_METRICS": true
}
