Usage

Claude Code (plugin)

This repository doubles as a single-plugin marketplace, so Claude Code can install the server for you:

/plugin marketplace add shigechika/aruba-central-mcp
/plugin install aruba-central-mcp@aruba-central-mcp

The plugin launches uvx aruba-central-mcp and reads the same three environment variables described in Configuration; export them before starting Claude Code.
