 ## 🚀 Getting Started
 
-### Installation
+The servers in this repository can be used directly with `npx`. For example:
 
-```bash
+```sh
-# Install all servers globally
+npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-memory
-npm install -g @modelcontextprotocol/servers
-
-# Or install individual servers
-npm install -g @modelcontextprotocol/server-github
-npm install -g @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem
-# etc...
 ```
 
-### Usage
+This will start the [Memory](src/memory) server. However, this isn't very useful on its own, and should instead be configured into an MCP client. For example, here's the Claude Desktop configuration to use the above server:
 
-Each server can be run directly from the command line:
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "memory": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-memory"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
 
-```bash
+Additional examples might look like:
-mcp-server-github
+
-mcp-server-filesystem ~/allowed/path
+```json
-mcp-server-postgres "postgresql://localhost/mydb"
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "filesystem": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/path/to/allowed/files"]
+    },
