## Installation

### For Claude Desktop

Add the Capacities MCP server to your Claude Desktop configuration (`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` on macOS):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "capacities": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "capacities-mcp"],
      "env": {
