Shannon MCP

# Shannon MCP - Claude Code MCP Server A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for Claude Code, built using an innovative multi-agent collaborative system. ## Overview Shannon MCP is a Python-based MCP server that provides programmatic management of Claude Code CLI operations. This project replicates and extends the functionality found in the Claude Desktop application, exposing all Claude Code interactions through standardized MCP tools. ## Multi-Agent Architecture This project employs a revolutionary approach: **26 specialized AI agents** working collaboratively to implement the entire MCP server specification. Each agent has deep expertise in specific domains and works together through shared memory and orchestration systems. ### System Architecture ``` ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ ORCHESTRATION LAYER │ │ ┌─────────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌─────────────────┐ │ │ │ Build │ │ Agent │ │ Shared │ │ │ │ Orchestrator │ │ Progress │ │ Memory │ │ │ │ │ │ Tracker │ │ Context │ │ │ └────────┬────────┘ └──────┬───────┘ └────────┬────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └───────────────────┴────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────┼───────────────────────────────────┘ │ ┌──────────────────────────────┼───────────────────────────────────┐ │ AGENT LAYER │ │ │ │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Core Architecture │ │ │ │ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ │ │ │ │ │Architecture│ │SDK Expert│ │Python MCP│ │Functional│ │ │ │ │ │ Agent │ │ │ │ Expert │ │ Server │ │ │ │ │ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Infrastructure │ │ │ │ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ │ │ │ │ │ Database │ │Streaming │ │ JSONL │ │ Process │ │ │ │ │ │ Storage │ │Concurrency│ │Streaming │ │Management│ │ │ │ │ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Specialized Agents │ │ │ │ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ │ │ │ │ │ Security │ │ Testing │ │ DevOps │ │Analytics │ │ │ │ │ │Validation│ │ Quality │ │Deployment│ │Monitoring│ │ │ │ │ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ │ │ │ │ + 14 more agents... │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ ┌──────────────────────────────┼───────────────────────────────────┐ │ IMPLEMENTATION LAYER │ │ │ │ ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ MCP Server Components │ │ │ │ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ │ │ │ │ │ Binary │ │ Session │ │Checkpoint│ │ Hooks │ │ │ │ │ │ Manager │ │ Manager │ │ System │ │Framework │ │ │ │ │ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` ### Agent Categories #### 1. Core Architecture Agents (4) - **Architecture Agent**: System design and architectural decisions - **Claude Code SDK Expert**: Deep knowledge of Claude Code CLI and SDK - **Python MCP Server Expert**: MCP protocol implementation specialist - **Functional MCP Server**: Business logic and feature implementation #### 2. Infrastructure Agents (7) - **Database Storage**: SQLite optimization and content-addressable storage - **Streaming Concurrency**: Async patterns and stream processing - **JSONL Streaming**: Real-time JSONL parsing and handling - **Process Management**: System process monitoring - **Filesystem Monitor**: Real-time file system change detection - **Platform Compatibility**: Cross-platform support - **Storage Algorithms**: Content-addressable storage optimization #### 3. Quality & Security Agents (6) - **Security Validation**: Input validation and security implementation - **Testing Quality**: Comprehensive test implementation - **Error Handling**: Error recovery and user-friendly messages - **Performance Optimizer**: Performance profiling and optimization - **Documentation**: Technical documentation and examples - **DevOps Deployment**: CI/CD and deployment automation #### 4.

Orchestration Layer The orchestration layer coordinates all agent activities through specialized commands: - **`/mcp-build-orchestrator`**: Master command that distributes tasks to agents - **`/mcp-agent-progress`**: Tracks real-time progress of all agents - **`/mcp-shared-memory`**: Enables knowledge sharing between agents - **`/mcp-agent-context`**: Manages persistent context for each agent ### 2. Agent Collaboration Agents collaborate through several mechanisms: ``` ┌─────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────┐ │ Agent A │ │ Shared Memory │ │ Agent B │ │ │────▶│ │◀────│ │ │ Discovers │ │ Stores Pattern │ │ Uses Pattern │ │ Pattern │ │ │ │ │ └─────────────────┘ └─────────────────┘ └─────────────────┘ │ ▼ ┌─────────────────────┐ │ Knowledge Graph │ │ Semantic Search │ │ Pattern Evolution │ └─────────────────────┘ ``` ### 3.
