Connect to Pylee

To access all of Pylee, you just need to setup Pylee once. This is the one and only local MCP server you will need. After that hundreds of servers created by Anthropic and the community can be added to your Pylee MCP registry and will be available in all your applications and agents.

One-time setup: You only need to configure Pylee once. After setup, all MCP servers from Anthropic and the community will be available across all your applications.

Claude Desktop application

Configuration File Location:

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Configuration Content:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pylee": {

    }
  }
}

More details

How does the configuration file work?

This configuration file tells the host which MCP servers to start up every time you start the application. In this case, we have added one server called “pylee” that will use the pylee command to run. This one server will let you access all of your MCP servers in your registry.

Alternative installation

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fsSL https://pyleeai.com/install.sh | sh -eu

Using this command you will need to be sure that the target installation directory is in your PATH. For example:

export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fsSL https://pyleeai.com/install.sh | sh -eu

Using this command you will need to be sure that the target installation directory is in your PATH. For example:

export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fsSL https://pyleeai.com/install.sh | sh -eu

Using this command you will need to be sure that the target installation directory is in your PATH. For example:

export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH

Environment Variables

Optional environment variables to customize the installation

TARGET

string

Installation Directory
Specify a custom directory for the installation

DEBUG

boolean

Debug Mode
Enable verbose output during installation

Using the Pylee CLI

Once installed, you can use the Pylee CLI using the pylee command.

Verify Installation

Check that Pylee is properly installed and view the version

pylee --version

Next Steps

After installation, explore the available commands to get started with Pylee.

See the Pylee CLI Reference for more information.

Updating the Pylee CLI

To update Pylee to the latest version, simply run the installation command again. The installer will replace your existing installation with the latest version.

Update Command

Run the same installation command you used initially

curl -L pyleeai.com/install.sh | sudo sh

Next Steps

After connecting Pylee to your applications:

Browse the registries - Explore available MCP servers and registries in Pylee
Activate another registry - Switch to another registry
Read the documentation - Learn more about Pylee
