# Context Injection MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that automatically injects development framework context into Claude conversations.
## Overview
This MCP server integrates with Claude Desktop to automatically inject your development framework context into conversations when you start discussing new projects or development tasks. It ensures Claude follows your established patterns and workflows without having to manually provide this context each time.
The server also supports referencing your Knowledge Graph to ensure Claude leverages your stored development frameworks, patterns, and workflows when responding.
## Features
- **Automatic Context Injection**: Detects development-related conversations and automatically injects your framework context.
- **Keyword Detection**: Customize keywords that trigger context injection.
- **Solo Developer Framework**: Includes a predefined Solo Developer Framework with workflows and best practices.
- **Knowledge Graph References**: Add references to your Knowledge Graph to leverage your stored development knowledge.
- **CLI Tools**: Simple command-line interface for setup and operation.
## Framework Included
The default context includes:
1. **Solo Developer Workflow**: A 9-step process for efficient solo development
2. **AI Collaboration Framework**: A structured approach for working with AI assistants
3. **Short Prompt Development**: Pattern for generating implementations from brief instructions
## Installation
1. Clone the repository
2. Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```
3. Build the project:
```bash
npm run build
```
## Usage
### Setup
Initialize the project with default configuration and context files:
```bash
npm run setup
```
This creates:
- `config.json`: Server configuration
- `context.json`: Development context for injection
### Starting the Server
```bash
npm run start
```
Or with a custom config file:
```bash
npm run start -- -c path/to/config.json
```
### Creating a Custom Context
```bash
npm run create-context -- -o path/to/output.json
```
### Configuring Knowledge Graph References
View current configuration:
```bash
npm run -- config --show
```
Enable Knowledge Graph references:
```bash
npm run -- config --kg-reference
```
Disable Knowledge Graph references:
```bash
npm run -- config --no-kg-reference
```
Customize Knowledge Graph reference text:
```bash
npm run -- config --kg-text "Please reference my Knowledge Graph for our team's development patterns."
```
## Integration with Claude Desktop
To use this MCP server with Claude Desktop:
1. Open your Claude Desktop configuration
2. Add the following to your MCP servers configuration:
```json
"context-injection": {
"command": "node",
"args": [
"/path/to/mcp-instruction-injection/dist/index.js",
"start"
]
}
```
## Claude Desktop Integration
### Overview
This MCP Context Injection service can be integrated with Claude Desktop to automatically inject contextual information into your conversations with Claude. Integration uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) which allows Claude to communicate with external tools.
### Setup Instructions
1. First, make sure you have the latest version of Claude Desktop installed
- Download from [Anthropic's website](https://www.anthropic.com/claude)
- Ensure it's updated to the latest version
2. Configure Claude Desktop to use this MCP server:
**Windows:**
- Open your Claude Desktop configuration file at:
```
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
```
- If the file doesn't exist, create it
- Add the following configuration (adjust paths to match your installation):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"context-injection": {
"command": "node",
"args": [
"C:\\apps\\mcp-instruction-injection\\dist\\cli.js",
"mcp-start",
"--config",
"C:\\apps\\mcp-instruction-injection\\config.json"
]
}
}
}
```
**MacOS:**
- Open your Claude Desktop configuration file at:
```
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
```
- If the file doesn't exist, create it
- Add the following configuration (adjust paths to match your installation):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"context-injection": {
"command": "node",
"args": [
"/path/to/mcp-instruction-injection/dist/cli.js",
"mcp-start",
"--config",
"/path/to/mcp-instruction-injection/config.json"
]
}
}
}
```
3. Save the configuration file and restart Claude Desktop
4. Verify the integration is working:
- Open Claude Desktop
- Look for the hammer icon in the interface that indicates available tools
- The context injection tool should appear in the list
### Troubleshooting
If you're having issues with the integration:
1. **Tool not appearing in Claude Desktop:**
- Ensure the configuration file is properly set up with the correct paths
- Restart Claude Desktop completely
- Check the context injection server logs for any errors
2. **JSON parsing errors:**
- Make sure you're using the `mcp-start` command, not the regular `start` command
- The MCP protocol requires proper JSON-RPC messaging through stdin/stdout
3. **Port conflicts:**
- The MCP adapter doesn't use HTTP ports as it communicates through stdin/stdout
- If you see port conflict errors, it means you're using the wrong mode
4. **Request timeouts:**
- Check your internet connection
- Ensure the context service can access any external resources it needs
For detailed debugging, run Claude Desktop from the command line to see error messages.
## Knowledge Graph Usage
This server adds a reference to your Knowledge Graph in the injected context, prompting Claude to access your stored development frameworks, patterns, and workflows stored there. The Knowledge Graph itself should be managed separately.
You can customize the reference text using the `--kg-text` config parameter.
## Configuration
The `config.json` file allows you to customize:
- `port`: The port the server runs on (default: 3000)
- `contextPath`: Path to the context file
- `autoInject`: Whether to automatically inject on all messages
- `triggerKeywords`: Words that trigger injection when autoInject is false
- `knowledgeGraphReference`: Whether to include Knowledge Graph reference
- `knowledgeGraphReferenceText`: Text to include when referencing Knowledge Graph
