Developers share tips for optimizing Claude Code and MCP server testing

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Developers are sharing techniques to optimize their use of Anthropic's Claude Code and Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools. One method involves using tmux to manage multiple Claude Code sessions, with advice on setting up worktrees and configurations to avoid conflicts and improve efficiency. Another approach addresses the difficulties of testing MCP servers by introducing QAmcp, an open-source CLI tool that allows for direct, automated testing of MCP servers from the terminal, bypassing the need to restart Claude Desktop repeatedly.
