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:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
.githubCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
- Node.js: 24.0.1 or higher
- npm: 10.x or higher (comes with Node.js 24.0.1)
npm install @agentience/react-design-systems-mcp
npm install -g @agentience/react-design-systems-mcp
To use React Design Systems with Claude Desktop, you can configure it as an MCP server using the npm package. This allows Claude Desktop to automatically launch the server when needed.
Add the following configuration to your Claude Desktop MCP settings file:
Location:
- macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
- Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Configuration:
json{
"mcpServers": {
"react-design-systems": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"@agentience/react-design-systems-mcp"
]
}
}
}
If you have the package installed globally or locally:
json{
"mcpServers": {
"react-design-systems": {
"command": "react-design-systems-mcp"
}
}
}
For development with a local build:
json{
"mcpServers": {
"react-design-systems": {
"command": "node",
"args": [
"/path/to/react-design-systems-mcp/dist/server.js"
],
"cwd": "/path/to/react-design-systems-mcp"
}
}
}
This project can be deployed using Docker. For detailed instructions, see Docker Deployment Guide.
