I am currently using npx tsx mcp-server/server. js to start the project, but I am not sure about the correct way to start it. It is not started using the task master method, but rather in the source code project

[Crunchyman-ralph]

you can just do npx -y task-master-ai simply!

I want to add tools based on this project, debug and start, but I don't want to use global installation to start. How should I proceed

[Crunchyman-ralph]

Clone the project,
npm i,
npm run dev,
npm link,

Now you can use the command task-master anywhere or still use npx task-master-ai to use the mcp
