Zoo Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server

An MCP server housing various Zoo built utilities

Prerequisites

An API key for Zoo, get one here
An environment variable ZOO_API_TOKEN set to your API key
```
export ZOO_API_TOKEN="your_api_key_here"
```

Installation

Ensure uv has been installed
Create a uv environment
```
uv venv
```
Activate your uv environment (Optional)

Install the package from GitHub

uv pip install git+ssh://git@github.com/KittyCAD/zoo-mcp.git

Running the Server

The server can be started by using uvx

uvx zoo-mcp

The server can be started locally by using uv and the zoo_mcp module

uv run -m zoo_mcp

The server can also be run with the mcp package

uv run mcp run src/zoo_mcp/server.py

Integrations

The server can be used as is by running the server or importing directly into your python code.

from zoo_mcp.server import mcp

mcp.run()

Individual tools can be used in your own python code as well

from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP
from zoo_mcp.zoo_tools import zoo_execute_kcl

mcp = FastMCP(name="My Example Server")


@mcp.tool()
async def my_execute_kcl(kcl_code: str) -> tuple[bool, str]:
    """
    Example tool that uses the zoo_execute_kcl function from zoo_mcp.zoo_tools
    """
    return await zoo_execute_kcl(kcl_code=kcl_code)

The server can be integrated with Claude desktop using the following command

uv run mcp install src/zoo_mcp/server.py

The server can also be integrated with Claude Code using the following command

claude mcp add --scope project "Zoo-MCP" uv -- --directory "$PWD"/src/zoo_mcp run server.py

The server can also be tested using the MCP Inspector

uv run mcp dev src/zoo_mcp/server.py

For running with codex-cli

codex \
  -c 'mcp_servers.zoo.command="uvx"' \
  -c 'mcp_servers.zoo.args=["zoo-mcp"]' \
  -c mcp_servers.zoo.env.ZOO_API_TOKEN="$ZOO_API_TOKEN"

You can also use the helper script included in this repo:

./codex-zoo.sh

The script prompts for a request, runs Codex with the Zoo MCP server, and saves a JSONL transcript (including token usage) to codex-run-<timestamp>.jsonl.
