How to install hydra-nano

Install steps differ per project, so follow the README in the hydra-nano repository. Most MCP servers start with a single command (npx -y <package>, uvx <package> or a Docker image) that you add to your client's config. The install guide shows where that goes in Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor and VS Code.
