Parent Epic
Part of #18 - STDIO Transport Support
Description
Update documentation to explain STDIO transport mode and configuration.
Implementation
Modify: README.md
New Section: STDIO Transport Mode
Add documentation covering:
- Overview - What STDIO mode is and when to use it
- Prerequisites - VS must be running with extension loaded
- Claude Desktop Configuration
{
"mcpServers": {
"visual-studio": {
"command": "path/to/CodingWithCalvin.MCPServer.Server.exe",
"args": ["--transport", "stdio"]
}
}
}- Finding the Server.exe path - Typically in VS extension directory
- Comparison table - HTTP/SSE vs STDIO (when to use each)
- Limitations - VS must be open first, only one mode at a time
Example Content
## STDIO Transport Mode
For direct integration with Claude Desktop or other MCP clients that spawn
the server process, you can use STDIO transport instead of HTTP/SSE.
**Important**: Visual Studio must be open with the MCP Server extension
loaded before starting Claude Desktop with STDIO mode.
