Install
npm install -g @deckaura/tarot-mcp-server
Or run ad-hoc via npx:
npx @deckaura/tarot-mcp-server
Desktop extension bundle (MCPB)
Build a self-contained MCPB bundle for compatible desktop clients and stdio registries such as Smithery:
npm ci
npm run pack:mcpb
The command validates the MCPB manifest, bundles the Node.js server and its 78-card dataset, and writes build/deckaura-tarot-mcp-server-1.0.1.mcpb. Release bundles are also available from GitHub Releases.
