Julien MCP Jina

MCP Jina AI Installer

This skill installs the Jina AI MCP server into the current project.

Installation Procedure

When the user asks to install Jina MCP:

1. Check for existing .mcp.json in the project root
2. Merge configuration - Add this server to mcpServers:

{
  "jina": {
    "command": "cmd",
    "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@smithery/cli@latest", "run", "jina-ai-mcp-server", "--key", "${JINA_API_KEY}"],
    "env": {
      "JINA_API_KEY": "${JINA_API_KEY}"
    }
  }
}

3. If .mcp.json doesn't exist, create it with the full structure:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jina": {
      "command": "cmd",
      "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@smithery/cli@latest", "run", "jina-ai-mcp-server", "--key", "${JINA_API_KEY}"],
      "env": {
        "JINA_API_KEY": "${JINA_API_KEY}"
      }
    }

}
