## Installation

### Desktop Extension (DXT) Installation

The easiest way to use this MCP server is as a Desktop Extension:

1. **Download Extension**: Get the latest `.dxt` file from the [releases page](https://github.com/HeroSizy/cucumberstudio-mcp/releases) (automatically built from each release)
2. **Install Extension**: Import the extension in your compatible AI desktop application
3. **Configure Credentials**: Set up your Cucumber Studio API credentials through the extension settings:
   - **Access Token**: Your Cucumber Studio API access token
   - **Client ID**: Your Cucumber Studio client ID
   - **User ID**: Your Cucumber Studio user ID

The extension will automatically handle the MCP server setup and communication.

### Quick Start (Command Line)

Run directly with npx (no installation required):
```bash
npx cucumberstudio-mcp
```

Set your environment variables first:
```bash
export CUCUMBERSTUDIO_ACCESS_TOKEN="your_token"
export CUCUMBERSTUDIO_CLIENT_ID="your_client_id"
export CUCUMBERSTUDIO_UID="your_uid"
```

### Development Installation

1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/HeroSizy/cucumberstudio-mcp.git
cd cucumberstudio-mcp
```

2. Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```

3. Set up environment variables:
```bash
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your Cucumber Studio API credentials
```

4. Build the server:
```bash
npm run build
```

## Docker Support

### Using Pre-built Image (Recommended)

Run the official Docker image from Docker Hub:
```bash
# With environment file
docker run --env-file .env herosizy/cucumberstudio-mcp

# With environment variables
docker run -e CUCUMBERSTUDIO_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_token \
           -e CUCUMBERSTUDIO_CLIENT_ID=your_client_id \
           -e CUCUMBERSTUDIO_UID=your_uid \
           herosizy/cucumberstudio-mcp
```

### Using Docker Compose

1. Set up environment variables:
```bash
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your Cucumber Studio API credentials
```

2. Update docker-compose.yml to use the pre-built image:
```yaml
version: '3.8'
services:
  cucumberstudio-mcp:
    image: herosizy/cucumberstudio-mcp
    env_file:
      - .env
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "${MCP_PORT:-3000}:3000"
```

3. Run with Docker Compose:
```bash
docker-compose up
```

### Building Locally

1. Build the image:
```bash
npm run docker:build
```

2. Run the container:
```bash
npm run docker:run
```

The Docker setup includes health checks and automatic restarts for production use. The multi-stage build process creates optimized production images with only runtime dependencies (~150MB).
