MCP Server

mcp-server-panchangam is available on PyPI. It's a standard MCP stdio server (uvx mcp-server-panchangam), so it works with any MCP-compatible client or agent — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and custom agents built on the MCP SDK. Below are examples for a couple of common clients; for others, point your client's MCP config at the same uvx mcp-server-panchangam command.

Claude Desktop — add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "panchangam": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-server-panchangam"]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code — run once:

claude mcp add panchangam -- uvx mcp-server-panchangam
