Start a PRA MCP Server

Launches an MCP server that exposes all PRA analytical tools via the Model Context Protocol. Once running, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any MCP-compatible client can call PRA functions (Monte Carlo simulation, EVM, Bayesian risk, learning curves, DSM, etc.) as native tools.

Usage

pra_mcp_server()

Value

Called for its side effect (starts the MCP server process). Does not return under normal operation.

Details

The server communicates over stdio by default, which is the standard transport for local MCP servers. It reuses the same tool definitions from pra_tools(), so any tool updates are automatically reflected.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Start the server from an R session
pra_mcp_server()

# Or launch directly from the terminal (for use in Claude Code / Desktop):
# Rscript -e "PRA::pra_mcp_server()"
} # }
