Provides AI-powered assistance for iOS developers using the FrameLayoutKit framework, including code generation for various layout types, Auto Layout conversion, code validation, and migration guidance for UIKit projects.
FrameLayoutKit MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for FrameLayoutKit, providing AI-powered assistance for iOS developers using the FrameLayoutKit framework. This server helps generate Swift UIKit code using FrameLayoutKit's intuitive syntax, convert existing Auto Layout code, validate layouts, and provide migration guidance.
Features
π Code Generation
Generate FrameLayoutKit code for all layout types:
FrameLayout - Single view container with padding and alignment
VStackLayout/HStackLayout - Vertical/horizontal stacks
ZStackLayout - Overlapping views
DoubleFrameLayout - Two-view layouts with distribution control
GridFrameLayout - Multi-row/column grid layouts
ScrollStackView - Scrollable stacks
FlowFrameLayout - Wrapping flow layouts
π Auto Layout Conversion
Convert existing UIKit Auto Layout code to FrameLayoutKit:
NSLayoutConstraint conversion
UIStackView migration
Layout anchor transformation
Preserves code structure and comments
β Code Validation
Validate FrameLayoutKit code for:
Syntax correctness
Semantic validity
Best practices
Performance optimization suggestions
π Migration Assistance
Generate comprehensive migration guides:
Project-wide analysis
File-by-file recommendations
Effort estimation
Step-by-step migration strategy

Generated Swift code:
Convert Auto Layout to FrameLayoutKit
Validate FrameLayoutKit Code
FrameLayoutKit Syntax Verification
The MCP server correctly implements FrameLayoutKit's syntax patterns:
β Operator Usage
+operator for adding views to layouts<+and+>operators for DoubleFrameLayoutChainable method syntax
β Layout Properties
Correct alignment enums (
.top,.center,.bottom,.fill,.fit)Distribution options per layout type
Proper padding/spacing application
β View Wrapping
All views automatically wrapped in FrameLayout instances
Individual item configuration support
Correct frame calculation delegation
β Layout Hierarchies
Proper nesting of layout types
Correct parent-child relationships
Internal stack management for Grid and Flow layouts
Architecture
The server is built with:
Node.js with ES modules
@modelcontextprotocol/sdk for MCP implementation
Zod for schema validation
Modular class structure for each tool
Key Components
FrameLayoutGenerator - Generates FrameLayoutKit code
AutoLayoutConverter - Converts Auto Layout to FrameLayoutKit
FrameLayoutValidator - Validates syntax and semantics
MigrationAnalyzer - Analyzes projects for migration
