Overview

What is Homebrew MCP Server?

Homebrew MCP Server is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets you interact with the Homebrew package manager using natural language. It translates conversational requests into brew commands, making package management easier via Claude or other MCP clients.

How to use Homebrew MCP Server?

Download the latest binary from GitHub Releases and place it in a directory in your $PATH (e.g., /usr/local/bin/). Then configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) by adding a brew entry to the mcpServers object in the client’s config file, with the command set to "brew-mcp-server". Optionally, use the -enabled-tools flag to restrict which tools are available, reducing context size.
