 The inspector runs both an MCP Inspector (MCPI) client UI (default port 6274) and an MCP Proxy (MCPP) server (default port 6277). Open the MCPI client UI in your browser to use the inspector. (These ports are derived from the T9 dialpad mapping of MCPI and MCPP respectively, as a mnemonic). You can customize the ports if needed:

+### CLI Mode
+
+CLI mode enables programmatic interaction with MCP servers from the command line, ideal for scripting, automation, and integration with coding assistants. This creates an efficient feedback loop for MCP server development.
+
+```bash
+npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli node build/index.js
+```
+
+The CLI mode supports most operations across tools, resources, and prompts. A few examples:
+
+```bash
+# Basic usage
+npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli node build/index.js
+
+# With config file
+npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli --config path/to/config.json --server myserver
+
+# List available tools
+npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli node build/index.js --method tools/list
+
+# Call a specific tool
+npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli node build/index.js --method tools/call --tool-name mytool --tool-arg key=value --tool-arg another=value2
+
+# List available resources
+npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli node build/index.js --method resources/list
+
+# List available prompts
+npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli node build/index.js --method prompts/list
+
+# Connect to a remote MCP server
+npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli https://my-mcp-server.example.com
+
+# Call a tool on a remote server
+npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli https://my-mcp-server.example.com --method tools/call --tool-name remotetool --tool-arg param=value
