How To: Run the Hyaline MCP Server

Purpose

Run the hyaline mcp server locally.

Prerequisite(s)

• Install the CLI

Steps

1. Ensure CLI is Installed

Run hyaline version to ensure that the Hyaline CLI is installed and working properly.

2. Extract Documentation

Run hyaline extract documentation for each system you want to include. If you have multiple systems you can combine them into a single data set using hyaline merge documentation.

Place the resulting data set in a convenient location.

3. Add MCP Server to Client

This will vary by client, but the gist of it is you want to have the client run the command hyaline serve mcp --documentation ./path/to/documentation-data-set.db to start a local MCP server listening over stdio.

Please see your client documentation for specific steps.
