Customizing Forked Servers

Modify forked servers to meet your needs.

What you’ll learn:

• How to edit forked code
• Adding new tools
• Testing changes

Edit your forked server’s code to customize tools, add new functionality, or integrate with your systems. Changes are deployed as a managed server.

Editing Forked Code

1. Open Editor

   Open the code editor from your forked server’s dashboard or simply make the changes in your repository and push them.

2. Edit Files

   Modify any file with syntax highlighting and autocomplete.

3. Save Changes

   Changes save automatically as you edit.

4. Test

   Test your changes in the editor before deploying.

Adding Tools

Define new tools by adding tool definitions and handler functions to your forked code. Tools follow the MCP specification with a schema defining inputs and a function implementing the logic.

Tool Structure:

• Schema: Defines tool inputs and outputs
• Handler: Implements the tool logic
• Registration: Adds tool to your server

Modify existing tools by editing their handler functions or input schemas.
