-```bash
-export SLACK_MCP_XOXC_TOKEN=xoxc-...
-export SLACK_MCP_XOXD_TOKEN=xoxd-...
+You can configure the MCP server using command line arguments and environment variables.
 
-docker pull ghcr.io/korotovsky/slack-mcp-server:latest

+#### Using npx
 
-#### 2.2. Docker Compose
+If you have npm installed, this is the fastest way to get started with `slack-mcp-server` on Claude Desktop.
 
-```bash
-wget -O docker-compose.yml https://github.com/korotovsky/slack-mcp-server/releases/latest/download/docker-compose.yml
-wget -O .env https://github.com/korotovsky/slack-mcp-server/releases/latest/download/.env.dist
-nano .env # Edit .env file with your tokens from step 1 of the setup guide
-docker-compose up -d
+Open your `claude_desktop_config.json` and add the mcp server to the list of `mcpServers`:
+``` json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "slack": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": [

-#### 2.2.1 TLS and Exposing to the Internet
-
-There are several reasons why you might need to setup HTTPS for your SSE.
- - `mcp-remote` is capable to handle only https schemes;
- - it is generally a good practice to use TLS for any service exposed to the internet;

-You could use `ngrok`:
