Repository: https://github.com/yasir-khan-7/mcp-learning-assistant
Follow the installation instructions in the repository README, then restart your MCP client.
An educational MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that helps developers learn, understand code, and improve their programming skills through AI-powered tools.
This MCP server provides 8 powerful learning tools:
- explainConcept- Get simple explanations of programming concepts with examples
- reviewCode- Get constructive feedback on your code with improvement suggestions
- suggestBestPractice- Learn industry best practices for any programming task
- compareApproaches- Compare different solutions and understand tradeoffs
- generateLearningPath- Get a structured roadmap to learn any technology
- debugHelper- Understand and fix errors with guided debugging help
- explainThisCode- Get detailed explanations of how code works
- quizMe- Test your knowledge with auto-generated practice questions
- Node.js 18.0.0 or higher
- Cursor IDE or any MCP-compatible client
git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/learning-assistant-mcp.git cd learning-assistant-mcp
- Configure your MCP client (e.g., Cursor IDE):
{ "mcpServers": { "learning-assistant": { "command": "node", "args": [ "/absolute/path/to/learning-assistant-mcp/dist/index.js" ] } } }
Replace/absolute/path/to/learning-assistant-mcpwith the actual path where you cloned the repository.
Once installed, you can use the tools in Cursor Chat:
- "Explain what closures are in JavaScript for a beginner"
- "Review this code and suggest improvements"
- "What are the best practices for error handling in React?"
