## Install

Two components. Five minutes.

### 1. MCP Server

[Install uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/) if you don't have it, then register with your client:

**Claude Code**
```sh
claude mcp add cisco-pt-mcp --scope user -- uvx cisco-pt-mcp
```

**Cursor** (`~/.cursor/mcp.json` or `.cursor/mcp.json` per project)
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cisco-pt-mcp": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["cisco-pt-mcp"] }
  }
}
```

**VS Code** (`.vscode/mcp.json`)
```json
{
  "servers": {
    "cisco-pt-mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["cisco-pt-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

**Codex CLI** (`~/.codex/config.toml`)
```toml
[mcp_servers.cisco-pt-mcp]
command = "uvx"
args = ["cisco-pt-mcp"]
```

### 2. Packet Tracer Extension

1. Open Packet Tracer.
2. Go to **Extensions → Scripting → Configure PT Script Modules…**
3. Click **Add** and select [`cisco-pt-mcp.pts`](extension/cisco-pt-mcp.pts).
4. Restart Packet Tracer.

### 3. Run

Click **Extensions → Packet Tracer MCP** to open the bridge window, then start your MCP client. The status pill flips to `connected` within a second. Start prompting.
