The culmination of multiple turns with Claude Desktop and MCP Servers for Sequential-Thinking, Desktop-Commander.

To understand this implementation and the problems it overcomes, refer to DEVTOOLS.md and README.md.

The files here are in a flat hierarchy, but their proper locations in a NEXT.js project are shown in __previewjs__README.md (which ultimately lands in the __previewjs__ folder.) DEVTOOLS.md can be placed anywhere in the project, but the root seems most useful.

DISCLAIMER

Standard disclaimer. This is a solution that worked for me. NO IMPLIED WARRANTY OR SUITABILITY TO PURPOSE. SUPPLIED AS-IS. Yada-yada (we've all seen this verbiage before).

Claude MCP - with NVM

As documented by Jonathan Gastón Löwenstern (hereafter, JGL), loading Claude Desktop MCP servers while using Node Version Manager (NVM) can be fraught, and there is little assistance in the community. Thankfully, Jonathon describes and solves the problems.

My modification is the ability to configure and use an NVM alias for use with Claude MCPs, without hardcoding the node version.

Caveats: This is tested and known to work on MacOS Monterey with ZSH. I have not tried other flavors of MacOS, Linux, or shells.

The Strategy

Situation

There are plenty of references for generating and using SSH keys on MacOS. Google for answers and they're everywhere. What is less obvious is how to use multiple SSH keys, especially for the same host, e.g. GitHub. I had multiple SSH keys and a ~/.ssh/config file, but certain of the credentials weren't being found.

Solution

The nuggets of goodness I found describe how to properly use ~/.ssh/config - (here, here, here, here... +many more). The key is actually using the resulting Host aliases!

Go figure, huh? 🤦

Some Tools

SSH client: ZOC ($)
SD cards: SanDisk 8G or > (16 - 32G preferred)

The Links and Steps

Install

Import the accompanying insomnia_salesforceAPI.json into Insomnia to create a workspace with sample requests that,

get a bearer token using Salesforce built-in Oauth password workflow
make REST API requests referencing the bearer token

Setup / Customize

Environment

The environment variables are stored in MyOrg folder.

Summary

If the prescribed method of configuring Sourcetree using Jetbrains' command line scripts fails, here is an alternative configuration:

Diff

Diff Command: open -W -n -b "com.jetbrains.intellij" --args
Diff Arguments: diff "$LOCAL" "$PWD/$REMOTE"

Merge

Merge Command: open -W -n -b "com.jetbrains.intellij" --args
Merge Arguments: merge "$PWD/$LOCAL" "$PWD/$REMOTE" "$PWD/$BASE" "$PWD/$MERGED"

Scenario

You're using ui-router to manage Angular 1.x routing states. You have a parent state that should always navigate to a child state, but without relying on ui-router-extras like $deepStateRedirect. This is to avoid deep linking into the child state. Some logins need to operate this way, for instance, so the Terms of Service acknowledgement cannot be skipped.

Configuration

This is an example ui-router state hierarchy that defines a series of states used for login pages.

$stateProvider
  .state('login', {
 url: '/login',

	#!/bin/bash

	set -e
	set -o pipefail

	unset fetch_git_branch
	fetch_git_branch=`git name-rev --refs=heads/* --name-only $1 \| grep -oE '^[^~]+'`

	echo fetching... $fetch_git_branch

	// Assumes jwt-client has been loaded to define JWT global
	(function expireJWT() {
	JWT.defaults = {key: 'jwt', tokenPrefix: '', storage: window.localStorage, padding: false};
	decodedJWT = JWT.read(JWT.get());
	decodedJWT.claim.exp = (Date.now() / 1000) - 1;
	JWT.keep(decodedJWT);
	})();
