Overview

MCP Tool Chainer is a server that facilitates the chaining of multiple MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools, allowing for sequential execution and result passing to optimize token usage.

To use MCP Tool Chainer, install it via npm or from source, and configure it in your MCP server settings. You can then chain tools together in your workflows.

  • Chain multiple MCP tools in sequence - Pass results between tools using the CHAIN_RESULT placeholder - Automatic discovery of tools from configured MCP servers - Reduced token usage compared to individual tool calls
  1. Creating complex data processing pipelines with minimal token usage.
  2. Automating workflows that require multiple tool interactions.
  3. Enhancing performance by reducing latency in tool calls.

Use these steps to connect Mcp_tool_chainer in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-tool-chainer-thirdstrandstudio": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@thirdstrandstudio/mcp-tool-chainer",
        "`claude_desktop_config.json` or `mcp.json`"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-tool-chainer-thirdstrandstudio": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@thirdstrandstudio/mcp-tool-chainer",
        "`claude_desktop_config.json` or `mcp.json`"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-tool-chainer-thirdstrandstudio": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@thirdstrandstudio/mcp-tool-chainer",
        "`claude_desktop_config.json` or `mcp.json`"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "mcp-tool-chainer-thirdstrandstudio": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@thirdstrandstudio/mcp-tool-chainer",
        "`claude_desktop_config.json` or `mcp.json`"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-tool-chainer-thirdstrandstudio": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@thirdstrandstudio/mcp-tool-chainer",
        "`claude_desktop_config.json` or `mcp.json`"
      ]
    }
  }
}
