Hi, nice project! Found it on Awesome MCP Servers, by the way.

There's a minor issue in the README install instructions that might trip up people unfamiliar with JSON syntax. I believe a set of curly braces is missing in the configuration code. The code should be:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-installer": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@anaisbetts/mcp-installer"]
    }
  }
}

Without the enclosing curly braces, on restarting Claude Desktop, the user will get an error:

Could not load app settings: There was an error reading or parsing claude_desktop_config.json: SyntaxError: Unexpected non-whitespace character after JSON at position 12 (line 1 column 13)

Here we are in Mar 2025 and the readme is still leading people into an initial install error. I guess it works on their machine?
