[Bug]: Error when running php artisan mcp:test-tool — "There are no commands defined in the 'mcp' namespace"

[evecimar]

What happened?

Hello!

After trying to install the package, I'm encountering an issue when running the command:

php artisan mcp:test-tool
I get the following error:
{"message":"There are no commands defined in the \"mcp\" namespace.","context":{"exception":{"class":"Symfony\\Component\\Console\\Exception\\NamespaceNotFoundException","message":"There are no commands defined in the \"mcp\" namespace.","code":0,"file":"/var/www/app/vendor/symfony/console/Application.php:669"}},"level":400,"level_name":"ERROR","channel":"local","datetime":"2025-04-26T13:40:21.173975-03:00","extra":{}}}

ERROR  There are no commands defined in the "mcp" namespace.

Additionally, when trying to run the publish command:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\LaravelMcpServerServiceProvider"


INFO  No publishable resources for tag [].

It seems like the command is not being registered properly, and the mcp namespace cannot be found.
I'd appreciate any help or advice on how to resolve this issue or if any additional configuration is needed.

How to reproduce the bug

composer require opgginc/laravel-mcp-server
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\LaravelMcpServerServiceProvider
php artisan make:mcp-tool MyCustomTool

Package Version

1.0.1

PHP Version

8.2.20

Laravel Version

10.10

Which operating systems does this happen with?

Linux

Notes

No response

Show me the console log when you run the composer require. It's not installed yet on your project. Also show me your composer.json.

Did you turn off auto-discovery of providers?

[evecimar]

No, I didn't

[evecimar]

I found an issue related to the configuration file in the laravel-mcp-server package.

In the file:
src/LaravelMcpServerServiceProvider.php, inside the configurePackage method, you have:

$package->name('laravel-mcp-server');
This setting makes Laravel expect a configuration file named config/laravel-mcp-server.php.

However, the actual file provided in the package is named config/mcp-server.php.

Because of this mismatch, when running:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="OPGG\LaravelMcpServer\LaravelMcpServerServiceProvider"
the output is:

INFO No publishable resources for tag [].
How to fix:
Option 1: Rename the file from config/mcp-server.php to config/laravel-mcp-server.php.

Option 2: Update the service provider to explicitly reference the correct file:

$package->hasConfigFile('mcp-server');
Just letting you know in case you'd like to fix it in a future release!

Thanks again for your work on the package!

[kargnas]

Thank you for figuring out! I’ll fix it soon and patch.
