Setup steps

  1. Configure a local stdio server using command npx and args [-y, @patternfly/patternfly-mcp@latest].
  2. For HTTP mode use args [-y, @patternfly/patternfly-mcp@latest, --http, --port, 8080].
  3. See the official docs for client-specific configuration and troubleshooting.
Tools 2

The current PatternFly MCP usage guide documents exactly two built-in tools: searchPatternFlyDocs and usePatternFlyDocs. Custom tool plugins can extend the set at startup; the stored names describe the default built-in server, not plugin-specific additions.
