Configuration

Usage with Claude Desktop

To use this server with the Claude Desktop app, add the following configuration to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "json": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": [
      "@gongrzhe/[email protected]"
    ]
  }
}

Alternatively, you can use the node command directly if you have the package installed:

    ]
  }
}

Development

Building from Source

1. Clone the repository
2. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   

3. Build the project:

   npm run build
   

Notes

1. All JSONPath expressions start with $ representing the root object
2. Array indices are zero-based
3. String values in operations should be wrapped in quotes
4. Date operations support 'days', 'months', and 'years' units
5. Numeric operations support basic arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /)
