Install TGlider

1. Install

Requires Node.js 24 or later, with npm. Run this in your terminal. The command installs the executable on your machine.

npm install --global tglider@latest

Install the Pi adapter once:

pi install npm:pi-mcp-adapter

Then confirm that the executable starts:

tglider --version

Future packages will expire 90 days after release. Existing versions retain their original expiry. Keep the installed product updated. Update instructions →

Example configuration. Enter your project path before you use it.

Merge this entry into the file below. Keep existing settings and other servers. Replace an existing entry with this name instead of duplicating it.

.mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tglider": {
      "command": "tglider",
      "args": [
        "--workspace",
        "/path/to/MyApp",
        "--default-timeout",
        "30m"
      ],
      "cwd": "/path/to/MyApp",
      "requestTimeoutMs": 1800000
    }
  }
}

Pi needs pi-mcp-adapter. This shared project file is read by the adapter; .pi/mcp.json holds Pi-specific overrides.

3. Verify

Restart Pi from the project root. Open /mcp. The adapter connects lazily when you request a server tool.

Use TGlider to check server_status. Confirm that my selected workspace is loaded. Then find one symbol in that workspace. Do not edit files.

The status names your workspace. The symbol result points to one of its source files.
