实时演示

实际使用效果

就绪

安装

选择你的客户端

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json · Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "microsoft-mcp-catalog": {
      "_doc": "See https://github.com/microsoft/mcp for per-server install instructions."
    }
  }
}

打开 Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config。保存后重启应用。

~/.cursor/mcp.json · .cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "microsoft-mcp-catalog": {
      "_doc": "See https://github.com/microsoft/mcp for per-server install instructions."
    }
  }
}

Cursor 使用与 Claude Desktop 相同的 mcpServers 格式。项目级配置优先于全局。

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "microsoft-mcp-catalog": {
      "_doc": "See https://github.com/microsoft/mcp for per-server install instructions."
    }
  }
}

点击 Cline 侧栏中的 MCP Servers 图标，然后选 "Edit Configuration"。

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "microsoft-mcp-catalog": {
      "_doc": "See https://github.com/microsoft/mcp for per-server install instructions."
    }
  }
}

格式与 Claude Desktop 相同。重启 Windsurf 生效。

~/.continue/config.json

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "microsoft-mcp-catalog",
      "args": []
    }
  ]
}

Continue 使用服务器对象数组，而非映射。

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "microsoft-mcp-catalog": {
      "command": {
        "args": []
      }
    }
  }
}

加入 context_servers。Zed 保存后热重载。

claude mcp add microsoft-mcp-catalog -- undefined

一行命令搞定。用 claude mcp list 验证，claude mcp remove 卸载。
