Install Mikrotik Rest in Continue
What you need first
- Continue, installed.
- uv, which
gives the
uvxcommand the server starts with. - Your own values for
YOUR_MIKROTIK_BASE,YOUR_MIKROTIK_USERNAME.
Steps
- Open
~/.continue/config.yaml. On Windows it is%USERPROFILE%\.continue\config.yaml. - Add this entry. If the file already has
mcpServers, add only the item from- nameon.
mcpServers:
- name: "mikrotik-rest-mcp"
type: stdio
command: "uvx"
args:
- "mikrotik-rest-mcp-server==0.1.2"
env:
"MIKROTIK_BASE": "YOUR_MIKROTIK_BASE"
"MIKROTIK_USERNAME": "YOUR_MIKROTIK_USERNAME" - Replace
YOUR_MIKROTIK_BASE,YOUR_MIKROTIK_USERNAMEwith your own values. - Save the file and restart Continue.
Check it worked
Ask Continue: List the tools of mikrotik-rest-mcp.
If it does not start
- spawn uvx ENOENT
- uv is not on the PATH that Continue sees. Install it, or write the
full path of
uvxin the config. - The server starts, but its tools fail
- A
YOUR_…placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong. - Nothing changes after a restart
- The file is not valid YAML any more. Check that the entry is indented like the lines around it.
