It helps agents understand your project's standards, follow development workflows, and access relevant information through a flexible content management system.\n\n## Key Features\n\n- **Content Management** - Organise documents, instructions and prompts by category and collection\n- **Template Support** - Dynamic content with Mustache/Chevron templates\n- **Multiple Transports** - STDIO, HTTP, and HTTPS modes\n- **Feature Flags** - Project-specific and global configuration\n- **Workflow Management** - Structured development phase tracking\n- **Profile System** - Pre-configured setups for common scenarios\n- **Docker Support** - Containerised deployment with SSL\n- **OpenSpec Integration** - Spec-driven development workflow\n\n## Quick Start\n\nmcp-guide is run using your AI Agent's MCP configuration, and not usually run directly, at least in stdio transport mode.\nIn stdio mode, standard input and output are used to communicate with the MCP so the agent needs to control both in order\nto operate.\nIn http mode, however, the server provides web server (http) transport, and this may be started in standalone mode, not\nnecessarily by the agent directly (although typically it does).\n\nThe configurations below detail configuration with some cli agents, but almost all of them will be similar.\n\n### Configure with AI Agents\n\n#### JSON configuration\n\nThese blocks can be used as is and inserted into the agent's configuration.\nThe stdio mode is a straightforward configuration, although it requires the uv tool to be installed.\n\n##### Stdio\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"mcp-guide\": {\n      \"command\": \"uvx\",\n      \"args\": [\"mcp-guide\"]\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\nIf the \"mcpServers\" block already exists, add the \"mcp-guide\" block at the end, ensuring that the previously last item, if any, has a terminating comma.\n\n#### Kiro-CLI\n\nAdd the above JSON block to `~/.kiro/settings/mcp.json`.\n\n#### Claude Code\n\nAdd the above JSON block to `~/.claude/settings.json`.\n\n#### GitHub Copilot CLI\n\nAdd this JSON block to `~/.config/.copilot/mcp.json`.\n\nOther clients will offer similar configuration, some also\n\nSee the [Installation Guide](docs/user/installation.md) for more detail in use with various clients, use with docker and using the http/sse transport mode.\n\n## Content Organisation\n\nmcp-guide organises content using **frontmatter** (optional YAML metadata at the start of documents) to define document properties and behaviour.\n\nContent is classified into three types via the `type:` field in frontmatter:\n\n  - **user/information** - Content displayed to users\n  - **agent/information** - Context for AI agents\n  - **agent/instruction** - Directives for agent behaviour\n\nContent is organised using **categories** (file patterns and directories) and **collections** (groups of categories). Collections act as \"macros\" to provide targeted context for specific tasks or purposes.\n\nSee [Content Management](docs/user/content-management.md) for details.\n\n## Feature Flags\n\nFeature flags control behaviour, capabilities and special features and may be set globally or per project:\n\n- **workflow** - Enable workflow phase tracking\n- **openspec** - Enable OpenSpec integration\n- **content-style** - Output format (None, plain, mime)\n\nSee [Feature Flags](docs/user/feature-flags.md) for more information.\n\n## Documentation\n\n- **[Documentation Index](docs/index.md)** - Documentation overview\n- **[Getting Started](docs/user/getting-started.md)** - First-time setup and basic concepts\n- **[Changelog](CHANGELOG.md)** - Release notes and version history\n\n## Links\n\n- **Documentation**: [deeprave.github.io/mcp-guide](https://deeprave.github.io/mcp-guide/latest/)\n- **Issues**: [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/deeprave/mcp-guide/issues)\n- **MCP Protocol**: [modelcontextprotocol.io](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/)\n\n## License\n\nMIT License - See [LICENSE.md](LICENSE.md) for details.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdeeprave%2Fmcp-guide","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdeeprave%2Fmcp-guide","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdeeprave%2Fmcp-guide/lists"}
