Getting Started
Prerequisites
- Python 3.8 or higher
- uv for dependency management
Installation
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/abhijithk1/omni-server.git
cd omni-server
- Install dependencies using uv:
uv venv
uv pip install -r requirements.txt # if using requirements.txt
# or, better:
uv pip install -e . # if pyproject.toml is used
- Activate the virtual environment (if needed):
source .venv/bin/activate # macOS/Linux
.venv\Scripts\activate # Windows
- Create a
.env
file (if required) with any necessary environment variables.
Dependencies
All required packages are defined in pyproject.toml
. You can install them using:
uv pip install -e .
Running the Server
To run manually via terminal:
uv pip install -e . # ensure it's installed
python main.py
Or if you're using a virtual environment:
.venv/Scripts/python.exe main.py
🧩 Integrating with Claude Desktop
To use this server with Claude Desktop, configure your claude_desktop_config.json
like so:
{
"mcpServers": {
"omni_server": {
"command": "<PATH TO PROJECT>/.venv/Scripts/python.exe",
"args": [
"<PATH TO PROJECT>/main.py"
],
"cwd": "<PATH TO PROJECT>"
}
}
}
Make sure:
- The path to the Python executable is correct
- Your virtual environment (.venv) is created and installed via uv
- Claude Desktop is configured to recognize the MCP server
Once that's done, Omni Server will run as an MCP-compatible backend inside Claude Desktop!
