Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
SmallCloud MCP Server DemoCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Install Node.js 18 or later (via Homebrew) and npm. Clone the repository, run npm install to install dependencies, then start the server with node index.js. To integrate with Claude Desktop on MacOS, add the JSON configuration for this server to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json, adjusting the path to index.js as needed.
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

Overview
SmallCloud MCP Server Demonstration of an Anthropic MCP server using the Model Context Protocol SDK by Anthropic. For use with Claude Desktop and other MCP Hosts.
This is a demo for Mac OS. Windows may require some small adjustments. I would consider creating a package as opposed to just an index.js file (like in this demo) if you expect your MCP solution to be reusable by others.
