Start MCP Server Locally

git clone {agentcare-mcp-github path}
cd agentcare-mcp
npm install
npm run build

Use claude desktop

for claude desktop: 
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
(use the env variables as shown above)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "filesystem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem",
        "/Users/your-username/Desktop"
      ]
    },
    "agent-care": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/Users/your-username/{agentcare-download-path}/agent-care-mcp/build/index.js"
      ],
      "env": {
        "OAUTH_CLIENT_ID": XXXXXX,
        "OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET":XXXXXXX,
        "OAUTH_TOKEN_HOST":,

        "CLINICAL_TRIALS_API_KEY":,
        "FDA_API_KEY":
      }
    }
  }
}

Use MCP Inspectopr

(MCP Server using inspector. Make sure to update the .env file with the correct values.)

npm install -g @modelcontextprotocol/inspector
mcp-inspector  build/index.js
http://localhost:5173

Test User Logins

(commonly used for sandbox/dev)

  • Cerner: portal | portal
  • Epic: FHIRTWO | EpicFhir11!

Troubleshooting:

If Claude desktop is running it uses port 3456 for Auth. You need to terminate that process using the following command:

kill -9 $(lsof -t -i:3456)

Use Goose

Goose is an open Source AI Agent frameowrk from Block(Stripe) that works with MCP servers. Goose Desktop is like Claude Desktop that can work with MCP servers. But Goose can be configured to use models other than Anthropic as well. More info: https://block.xyz/inside/block-open-source-introduces-codename-goose

See below how Goose Desktop works with Agent Care: (goose extension will be configured with command: /Users/your-username/{agentcare-download-path}/agent-care-mcp/build/index.js)
