install etw-mcp on Claude Desktop

Requires the runtime declared in the upstream repo — check the README before running. Claude Desktop only speaks stdio locally; HTTP servers are wrapped via npx mcp-remote automatically. Paste the config below, then follow the reload step to register etw-mcp.

paste into
macos: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "etw-trace-analyzer": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--no-project",
        "--with",
        "https://github.com/nijosmsft/etw-mcp/releases/download/v0.8.5/etw_mcp-0.8.5-py3-none-any.whl",
        "python",
        "-m",
        "etw_analyzer.server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "_NT_SYMBOL_PATH": "srv*C:\\symbols*https://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols"
      }
    }
