ai-factory-extension-shadcn-mcp

An ai-factory extension that bundles the shadcn/ui MCP server for AI coding agents — tools to install and manage shadcn/ui components directly from the agent.

Quick Start

# from a local directory
ai-factory extension add ./ai-factory-extension-shadcn-mcp

# or from a git repo
ai-factory extension add https://github.com/dealenx/ai-factory-extension-shadcn-mcp.git

ai-factory merges the MCP server configs into every agent that supports MCP (Claude Code, Cline, etc.).

    "shadcn": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["shadcn@latest", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}
