thinker-mcp

MCP server for the thinker-ci platform. Exposes tickets, CI/CD pipelines, project-management data, and AI-agent sessions as MCP tools and resources so that Claude Code (or any other MCP-capable client) can interact with the platform directly from the assistant.

thinker-console is the central Django application that owns projects, pipelines, runs, PM objects (epics, stories, tasks, sprints, milestones), and user/tenant data.

thinker-agent is a lightweight FastAPI service that manages stateful LLM sessions. It proxies requests to Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and AWS Bedrock.

thinker-blueprint is a git repository of Markdown files that serves as the project's file-system ticketing system. The tickets/ tree is readable and writable by thinker-mcp without going through an API.

Using with Claude Code

Add to your project's .claude.json (or ~/.claude.json for global access):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "thinker": {
      "command": "thinker-mcp",
      "env": {
        "THINKER_CONSOLE_URL": "https://console.thinker.ci",
        "THINKER_CONSOLE_TOKEN": "your-token-here",
        "THINKER_AGENT_URL": "https://agent.thinker.ci",
        "THINKER_AGENT_TOKEN": "your-agent-token-here",
        "THINKER_BLUEPRINT_PATH": "/home/you/thinker-blueprint"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or use a .env file in your working directory instead of inline env keys.

Restart Claude Code after editing the config. Run /mcp to verify the server is connected and tools are listed.


Using with other MCP clients

Any client that supports the MCP stdio transport can connect by spawning:

thinker-mcp

The server reads STDIN and writes STDOUT using the JSON-RPC framing defined by the MCP protocol. Set the environment variables above before launching.
