VX MCP Integration Rules

When configuring MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, always use vx instead of npx or uvx:

Pattern

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "server-name": {
      "command": "vx",
      "args": ["npx", "-y", "@scope/package@latest"]
    }
  }
}

Benefits

• Users don't need Node.js/Python pre-installed
• Same config works across Windows, macOS, Linux
• Tool versions managed by vx.toml if present

Migration

Common MCP Servers with vx

{
  "filesystem": { "command": "vx", "args": ["npx", "-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/path"] },
  "github": { "command": "vx", "args": ["npx", "-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"] },
  "sqlite": { "command": "vx", "args": ["uvx", "mcp-server-sqlite", "--db-path", "db.sqlite"] }
}
