-# ArgoCD MCP Server
+# Argo CD MCP Server
 
-A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for ArgoCD, enabling seamless integration with Visual Studio Code through both stdio and SSE (Server-Sent Events) transport protocols.
+An implementation of [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server for [Argo CD](https://argo-cd.readthedocs.io/en/stable/), enabling AI assistants to interact with your Argo CD applications through natural language. This server allows for seamless integration with Visual Studio Code and other MCP clients through both stdio and Server-Sent Events (SSE) transport protocols.
 
 ## Features
 
-- Integration with ArgoCD API
-- Support for both stdio and SSE transport modes
+- **Transport Protocols**: Supports both stdio and SSE transport modes for flexible integration with different clients
+- **Complete Argo CD API Integration**: Provides comprehensive access to Argo CD resources and operations
+- **AI Assistant Ready**: Pre-configured tools for AI assistants to interact with Argo CD in natural language
 
-## Development
+## Installation
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js (v18 or higher recommended)
+- pnpm package manager (for development)
+- Argo CD instance with API access
+
+### Usage with VSCode
+
+1. Create a `.vscode/mcp.json` file in your project:
+   ```json
+   {
+       "inputs": [
+           {
+               "id": "argocd-base-url",
+               "type": "promptString",
+               "description": "Enter the ArgoCD base URL",
+               "password": false
+           },
+           {
+               "id": "argocd-api-token",
+               "type": "promptString",
+               "description": "Enter the ArgoCD API token",
+               "password": true
+           }
+       ],
+       "servers": {
+           "argocd-mcp-server-stdio": {
+               "type": "stdio",
+               "command": "npx",
+               "args": [
+                   "argocd-mcp-server",
+                   "stdio"
+               ],
+               "env": {
+                   "ARGOCD_BASE_URL": "${input:argocd-base-url}",
+                   "ARGOCD_API_TOKEN": "${input:argocd-api-token}"
+               }
+           }
+       }
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. Start a conversation with an AI assistant in VS Code that supports MCP.
+
+### Usage with Claude Desktop
+
+1. Create a `claude_desktop_config.json` configuration file:
+   ```json
+   {
+     "mcpServers": {
+       "argocd-mcp": {
+         "command": "npx",
+         "args": ["argocd-mcp-server", "stdio"],
+         "env": {
+           "ARGOCD_BASE_URL": "https://your-argocd-server.com",
+           "ARGOCD_API_TOKEN": "your_argocd_token"
+         }
+       }
+     }
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. Configure Claude Desktop to use this configuration file in settings.
+
