required_env_var

MCP tool from Hooks MCP by scosman

This is a tool parameter expected to exist as an environment variable. The server will fail to start if the environment is missing this var.

How to use it

Project documentation lists required_env_var for the Hooks MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
