Other MCP Clients (npm)

npm install -g rivemcp

Automatically downloads the correct binary for your platform. Requires Node.js 18+.

Configure Your AI Client

Run in your terminal:

claude mcp add rivemcp -- npx -y rivemcp

Cursor doesn't support one-click .mcpb install yet. Three manual steps:

  1. Install the server: npm install -g rivemcp (or grab the binary from the Manual Install section below)
  2. Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or workspace .cursor/mcp.json):
    { "mcpServers": { "rivemcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "rivemcp"] } } }
  3. Restart Cursor — the tools appear in the next chat

If you prefer JSON config over the one-click .mcpb install above, add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "rivemcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "rivemcp"] } } }
Manual Install (alternative)

Download the standalone binary if you prefer not to use npm:

Then point your MCP client's "command" at the binary path directly.

Windows: SmartScreen may warn — click "More info" then "Run anyway".
macOS: run xattr -d com.apple.quarantine rivemcp-*
