Modes MCP Server

An MCP server for managing Roo's custom operational modes, providing programmatic control over mode configuration and management.

Features

  • Full CRUD operations for custom modes

  • Schema validation with Zod

  • File system watching for config changes

  • Error handling with standard MCP error codes

  • Atomic file operations

Installation

# Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/mkc909/modes-mcp-server.git cd modes-mcp-server # Install dependencies npm install # Build the project npm run build

Configuration

1. Environment Variables

Copy .env.example to .env and adjust as needed:

cp .env.example .env

Available environment variables:

  • MODES_CONFIG_PATH: Path to custom modes configuration file (default: %APPDATA%/Code/User/globalStorage/rooveterinaryinc.roo-cline/settings/cline_custom_modes.json)

2. Custom Modes Configuration

Create a JSON file for your custom modes configuration. See examples/modes.example.json for the format:

{ "customModes": [ { "slug": "example-mode", "name": "Example Mode", "roleDefinition": "Example role definition describing the mode's capabilities and responsibilities.", "groups": [ "read", ["edit", { "fileRegex": "\\.md$", "description": "Can edit markdown files only" }], "command", "mcp" ], "customInstructions": "Example custom instructions for the mode." } ] }

3. MCP Settings

Add the server configuration to your MCP settings file (typically at %APPDATA%/Code/User/globalStorage/rooveterinaryinc.roo-cline/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json). See examples/mcp-settings.example.json for the format:

{ "mcpServers": { "modes": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/modes-mcp-server/build/index.js"], "env": { "MODES_CONFIG_PATH": "/path/to/custom/modes.json" }, "disabled": false, "alwaysAllow": [] } } }
