"args": ["/path/to/reviewwebsite-mcp-server/dist/index.js"],
"transportType": "stdio"
}
}
}

Source Code Overview
What is MCP?
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI systems to securely and contextually connect with external tools and data sources.
This boilerplate implements the MCP specification with a clean, layered architecture that can be extended to build custom MCP servers for any API or data source.
Why Use This Boilerplate?
-
Production-Ready Architecture: Follows the same pattern used in published MCP servers, with clear separation between CLI, tools, controllers, and services.
-
Type Safety: Built with TypeScript for improved developer experience, code quality, and maintainability.
-
Working Example: Includes a fully implemented IP lookup tool demonstrating the complete pattern from CLI to API integration.
-
Testing Framework: Comes with testing infrastructure for both unit and CLI integration tests, including coverage reporting.
-
Development Tooling: Includes ESLint, Prettier, TypeScript, and other quality tools preconfigured for MCP server development.
Getting Started
Prerequisites
- Node.js (>=18.x): Download
- Git: For version control
Step 1: Clone and Install
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/mrgoonie/reviewwebsite-mcp-server.git
cd reviewwebsite-mcp-server
# Install dependencies
npm install
Step 2: Run Development Server
Start the server in development mode with stdio transport (default):
npm run dev:server
Or with the Streamable HTTP transport:
npm run dev:server:http
This starts the MCP server with hot-reloading and enables the MCP Inspector at http://localhost:5173.
⚙️ Proxy server listening on port 6277 🔍 MCP Inspector is up and running at http://127.0.0.1:6274
When using HTTP transport, the server will be available at http://127.0.0.1:8080/mcp by default.
Step 3: Test the ReviewWebsite API Tools
Use the ReviewWebsite API tools via CLI:
# Get available AI models
npm run dev:cli -- get-ai-models --api-key "your-api-key"
# Create a review
npm run dev:cli -- create-review --url "https://example.com" --instructions "Review this website" --api-key "your-api-key"
# Convert URL to Markdown
npm run dev:cli -- convert-to-markdown --url "https://example.com" --model "gpt-4o" --api-key "your-api-key"
Architecture
This boilerplate follows a clean, layered architecture pattern that separates concerns and promotes maintainability.

Controllers Layer (src/controllers/*.controller.ts)
- Purpose: Implement business logic, handle errors, and format responses
- Naming: Files should be named
<feature>.controller.ts - Pattern: Should return standardized

Services Layer (src/services/*.service.ts)
- Purpose: Interact with external APIs or data sources
- Naming: Files should be named
<feature>.service.ts - Pattern: Pure API interactions with minimal logic

Building Custom Tools
Follow these steps to add your own tools to the server:
1. Define Service Layer
Create a new service in src/services/ to interact with your external API:
// src/services/example.service.ts
import { Logger } from '../utils/logger.util.js';
const logger = Logger.forContext('services/example.service.ts');
export async function getData(param: string): Promise<any> {
logger.debug('Getting data', { param });
// API interaction code here
return { result: 'example d

FAQ
- What is the ReviewWebsite MCP server?
- ReviewWebsite is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server profile on explainx.ai. MCP lets AI hosts (e.g. Claude Desktop, Cursor) call tools and resources through a standard interface; this page summarizes categories, install hints, and community ratings.
- How do MCP servers relate to agent skills?
- Skills are reusable instruction packages (often SKILL.md); MCP servers expose live capabilities. Teams frequently combine both—skills for workflows, MCP for APIs and data. See explainx.ai/skills and explainx.ai/mcp-servers for parallel directories.
- How are reviews shown for ReviewWebsite?
- This profile displays 10 aggregated ratings (sample rows for discoverability plus signed-in user reviews). Average score is about 4.5 out of 5—verify behavior in your own environment before production use.
