Setting up with Highlight

This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:

  1. Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
  2. Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
  3. Configure the plugin with the settings below
    Plugin Name mcp-server
    Command (node, npx, python, etc.)

    Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.

  4. Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches

From the repository

Clone the repository, run pnpm install, then pnpm run build. Configure the server in an MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop or Cursor) by adding a JSON entry with the command node and the path to the built index.js file. In Cursor, use agent mode, as MCP does not work in Ask mode.

Claude Desktop / Cursor

Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.
