Install Claude Desktop 2. Edit `claude_desktop_config.json` 3. Add FleetMind server configuration 4. Restart Claude Desktop **Example:** ```json { "mcpServers": { "fleetmind": { "command": "python", "args": ["F:\\github-fleetmind-team\\server.py"] } } } ``` ### Continue.dev (VS Code) **Setup:** 1. Install Continue extension 2. Add FleetMind to MCP servers 3. Reload VS Code ### Cline (VS Code) **Setup:** 1. Install Cline extension 2. Configure MCP server 3. Start using tools ### Custom Applications **Any application supporting MCP protocol can integrate!** --- ## Known Issues & Limitations ### 1. Prompts Deferred **Issue:** FastMCP prompt API changed in v2.13.0 **Status:** Prompts commented out, tools fully functional **Impact:** Low - prompts are optional, tools work perfectly **Resolution:** Will add once API confirmed ### 2. Dependency Conflicts (Expected) **Issue:** Some packages have version conflicts with Gradio **Status:** Warnings only, no functional impact **Impact:** None - Gradio being removed **Resolution:** Clean install recommended ### 3. Windows Path Issues **Issue:** Windows pip sometimes has permission errors **Status:** Resolved using `--user` flag **Impact:** Installation only **Resolution:** Use `pip install --user` --- ## Next Steps ### Immediate (Post-Migration) 1. ✅ Test server with Claude Desktop 2. ✅ Create sample orders/drivers 3. ✅ Verify all 18 tools work 4. ✅ Test resources load correctly 5. ✅ Archive old code to `archive/` ### Short-Term (This Week) 1. Add comprehensive unit tests 2. Add integration tests 3. Set up CI/CD pipeline 4. Publish to GitHub 5. Create video tutorial ### Medium-Term (This Month) 1. Add prompt templates (once API confirmed) 2. Add assignment optimization algorithm 3. Add route optimization for multi-stop deliveries 4. Create mobile app MCP client 5. Add real-time tracking via WebSocket ### Long-Term (This Quarter) 1. Add analytics dashboard 2. Add driver app integration 3. Add customer tracking portal 4. Scale to handle 10,000+ orders/day 5.
