Mewmew

Just add Mewmew to make any Thor CLI into an MCP server.

Mewmew automatically converts Thor CLI commands into MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools that can be used by AI assistants.

Add to your Gemfile:

gem 'mewmew'

or add to a gemspec for a command that already uses Thor.

Simply add include Mewmew to your Thor CLI class:

require 'thor'
require 'mewmew'

class MyCli < Thor
  include Mewmew  # MCP command is automatically added!

  # Optional: Customize MCP server options
  # add_mcp_command(name: "my_custom_name", version: "2.0.0")

  desc "hello NAME", "Say hello to someone"
  def hello(name)
    puts "Hello, #{name}!"
  end

  desc "greet", "Greet the world"
  method_option :style, type: :string, default: "normal", desc: "Greeting style"
  def greet
    style = options[:style]
    case style
    when "loud"
      puts "HELLO WORLD!"
    when "quiet"
      puts "hello world..."
    else
      puts "Hello world!"
    end
  end
end

Run your CLI with the mcp command:

ruby my_cli mcp

To use your CLI with Cursor:

1. Configure MCP in Cursor: Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "my_cli": {
      "command": "/path/to/ruby",
      "args": ["/path/to/your/my_cli.rb", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}

2. Restart Cursor to pick up the MCP configuration

3. Use in Cursor: Your CLI commands will now be available as tools that Cursor can call automatically!

Check out the complete example in examples/example_cli.rb which creates a Wikipedia lookup CLI that can be used with Cursor.
