Overview
What is AI Dev Toolkit - MCP Server?
A pre‑alpha Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that combines file system tools, an AI Librarian for persistent code comprehension, project scaffolding, a structured Think Tool, and future context compression. It is designed to enhance AI assistants like Claude by giving them direct access to development workflows on the user’s local machine.
How to use AI Dev Toolkit - MCP Server?
Clone the repository, create a Python virtual environment, install dependencies from requirements.txt, then start the server with python src/server.py. Connect Claude Desktop by either running connect_to_claude.bat (Windows, administrator) or by manually adding a server in Settings > MCP Servers with name “AI Dev Toolkit” and URL http://localhost:8000. Once connected, invoke tools in Claude by typing @AI Dev Toolkit.
