MCP Think Tool Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementing the "think" tool for improving Claude's complex reasoning capabilities.
Overview
This MCP server implements the "think" tool as described in Anthropic's blog post, which provides Claude with a dedicated space for structured thinking during complex problem-solving tasks. The think tool has been shown to significantly improve performance in complex tasks requiring policy adherence and reasoning in long chains of tool calls.
Features
- Structured Thinking Space: Provides Claude with a dedicated place to break down complex problems
- Thought History: Maintains a log of all thoughts with timestamps for reference
- Statistics and Analysis: Offers metadata about thinking patterns
- Clean Slate Option: Allows clearing thought history when starting fresh
Installation
Install from PyPI:
Configuration
Windsurf
To use this tool with Claude in Windsurf, add the following configuration to your MCP config file:
The command
field should point to the directory where you installed the python package using pip.
Docker
You can install this MCP server with only the Dockerfile
First download the Dockerfile, navigate to its directory, and build the Docker image
Then add the following configuration your MCP config file
This was tested and working with Claude Desktop and Cursor
This server cannot be installed
remote-capable server
The server can be hosted and run remotely because it primarily relies on remote services or has no dependency on the local environment.
An MCP server that implements the 'think' tool, providing Claude with a dedicated space for structured thinking during complex problem-solving tasks to improve reasoning capabilities.
