Install @rolemodel/optics-mcp in LM Studio
What you need first
- LM Studio, installed.
- Node.js, which
gives the
npxcommand the server starts with.
Steps
- In LM Studio, open the Program tab and choose Install › Edit mcp.json.
- Add this block. If the file already has
mcpServers, add only the entry inside it.
{
"mcpServers": {
"optics-mcp-7fcd1r": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@rolemodel/optics-mcp"]
}
}
} - Save the file and restart LM Studio.
Check it worked
Ask LM Studio: List the tools of optics-mcp-7fcd1r.
If it does not start
- spawn npx ENOENT
- Node.js is not on the PATH that LM Studio sees. Install it, or write the
full path of
npxin the config. - Nothing changes after a restart
- The file is not valid JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
