How to Use the DGX-Spark MCP Server

TL;DR - Quick Start

# 1. Fix TypeScript errors first (known issue - ~13 errors)
cd ~/raibid-labs/dgx-spark-mcp
npm run typecheck  # See what needs fixing
 
# 2. Install & build
npm install
npm run build
 
# 3. Configure Claude Code
# Add to ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dgx-spark": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/home/beengud/raibid-labs/dgx-spark-mcp/dist/index.js"]
    }
  }
}
 
# 4. Restart Claude Code
 
# 5. Test it
# Ask Claude: "What GPUs do I have?"

Current Status: Almost Ready

✅ Complete

  • All 6 workstreams implemented
  • 114 files, ~15,000 lines of code
  • MCP protocol integration
  • 12 resources + 5 tools

⚠️ Needs Fixing

  • ~13 TypeScript compilation errors (type safety issues)
  • Some modules need integration
  • Needs testing on real DGX hardware

Package.json Status

✅ Already Has MCP Best Practices

  • bin field added (can be installed globally)
  • files field (specifies what to publish)
  • repository field (GitHub link)
  • ✅ Proper metadata (keywords, description)
  • ✅ Shebang in index.ts (#!/usr/bin/env node)

Ready for Publishing (After Fixes)

# Once TypeScript errors are fixed:
npm publish --access public
 
# Install globally
npm install -g @dgx/spark-mcp
 
# Use anywhere
dgx-spark-mcp

About dgx-spark-playbooks

It’s NOT the right place for this code.

dgx-spark-playbooks is a collection of tutorials/guides like:

  • “How to install Ollama on DGX Spark”
  • “How to fine-tune with PyTorch”

Our MCP server is actual software, not a tutorial.

What We COULD Contribute

A playbook/tutorial explaining how to use our MCP server:

Title: “Using Claude Code with DGX Spark via MCP” Path: nvidia/claude-code-mcp-integration/ Content: Step-by-step guide to install and use our MCP server

This would be welcomed as it teaches users how to enhance their workflow.

Next Steps

  1. Fix TypeScript errors (use npm run typecheck)
  2. Test locally (follow QUICKSTART.md)
  3. Test on real DGX (if you have access)
  4. Publish to npm (when stable)
  5. Maybe contribute playbook to dgx-spark-playbooks

Files to Read

  • QUICKSTART.md - Detailed local testing guide
  • USAGE-GUIDE.md - Complete usage documentation
  • PROJECT-COMPLETION-SUMMARY.md - What was built
  • README.md - Project overview

Bottom Line: The server is 95% done. Just needs TypeScript errors fixed, then you can test it locally with Claude Code!
