git clone git@github.com:abhinav7895/system-mcp.git

Navigate to the directory and install dependencies:

cd system-resource-monitor && npm install

This generates thedist/index.jsfile, ready to run as an MCP server.
- Download Claude Desktophere.
- Add this to yourclaude_desktop_config.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "system-resource-monitor": { "command": "node", "args": ["/absolute/path/to/dist/index.js"] } } }

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

(Adjust the path todist/index.jsbased on your project location.)

Ensure Claude Desktop recognizes the tools by checking for the hammer icon:

Click the hammer icon to see available tools:

If all six tools (get_cpu_usage,get_memory_usage, etc.) appear, the integration is active. You can now ask questions like:

- "What’s my CPU usage?"
- "How fast is my internet?"

- Internet Speed Test: ModifytestUrlsinindex.tsto use different download sources or adjustuploadSizeBytes(default 80KB) for upload tests.
- Logging: Console logs provide detailed test output; disable them in production by removingconsole.logstatements.

- Tool Not Showing: Verify the server is running (node dist/index.js) and the config path is correct.
- Internet Speed Errors: Ensure network connectivity and test URLs are accessible. Check console logs for specific failures.
- Refer to theMCP troubleshooting guide
