This MCP Server helps you summarize chat messages, providing a convenient way to condense and extract information from your conversations within Claude Desktop. It integrates with your chat database to analyze and generate summaries based on your queries.
Before installing the MCP server, you need to set up the chat database:
Create a .env
file in the root directory and set your chat database path:
CHAT_DB_PATH=path-to/chatbot/data/chat.db
Install the required dependencies:
pnpm install
Build the server using:
pnpm build
To use this server with Claude Desktop, add the server configuration to your Claude configuration file:
On MacOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
On Windows:
%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Add the following to your configuration file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-server-chatsum": {
"command": "path-to/bin/node",
"args": ["path-to/mcp-server-chatsum/build/index.js"],
"env": {
"CHAT_DB_PATH": "path-to/mcp-server-chatsum/chatbot/data/chat.db"
}
}
}
}
Make sure to replace path-to
with the actual path to your files.
The MCP server provides the following tools:
If you encounter issues, you can use the MCP Inspector for debugging:
pnpm inspector
This will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser. Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, this tool is essential for troubleshooting.

There are two ways to add an MCP server to Cursor. The most common way is to add the server globally in the ~/.cursor/mcp.json
file so that it is available in all of your projects.
If you only need the server in a single project, you can add it to the project instead by creating or adding it to the .cursor/mcp.json
file.
To add a global MCP server go to Cursor Settings > MCP and click "Add new global MCP server".
When you click that button the ~/.cursor/mcp.json
file will be opened and you can add your server like this:
{
"mcpServers": {
"cursor-rules-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"cursor-rules-mcp"
]
}
}
}
To add an MCP server to a project you can create a new .cursor/mcp.json
file or add it to the existing one. This will look exactly the same as the global MCP server example above.
Once the server is installed, you might need to head back to Settings > MCP and click the refresh button.
The Cursor agent will then be able to see the available tools the added MCP server has available and will call them when it needs to.
You can also explictly ask the agent to use the tool by mentioning the tool name and describing what the function does.
