Dev Team MCP — Autonomous AI Software Development Team

Submit a ticket → get production-ready code.

An autonomous MCP server that runs a full software development pipeline: Planner → Coder → Tester → Reviewer → Delivery

Runs on port 8002 alongside:

  • DevOps MCP (:8000) — Docker, K8s, AWS, Git

  • Dev Agent MCP (:8001) — Code generation in 18 languages

Each agent uses:

  • LLM (Ollama / OpenAI / Anthropic) for reasoning

  • Dev Agent :8001 for high-quality code generation and reviews

  • DevOps MCP :8000 for git operations and deployments

Quick Start

1. Install

cd ~/dev-team-mcp
make install

2. Configure

cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env — choose LLM_PROVIDER (default: ollama)

3. Run

# Start this server
make dev        # Dev server on :8002 with auto-reload

# Or start all three MCP servers at once
make start-all

4. Verify

curl http://localhost:8002/health | jq

How to Use

Submit a ticket (async)

curl -X POST http://localhost:8002/ticket \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "title": "Add JWT authentication to FastAPI app",
    "description": "Add JWT-based auth with login endpoint, token refresh, and protected routes. Use python-jose.",
    "language": "python",
    "framework": "fastapi",
    "priority": "high",
    "labels": ["feature", "security"]
  }'

Response:

{
  "ticket_id": "a1b2c3d4e5f6",
  "status": "pending",
  "message": "Ticket accepted. Pipeline started: Planner -> Coder -> Tester -> Reviewer. Poll GET /ticket/a1b2c3d4e5f6 for status."
}

Poll for status

curl http://localhost:8002/ticket/a1b2c3d4e5f6 | jq
{
  "ticket_id": "a1b2c3d4e5f6",
  "status": "done",
  "output_path": "/home/user/dev-team-mcp/workspace/add-jwt-auth-a1b2c3d4e5f6",
  "review_score": 88,
  "plan_summary": "Implement JWT authentication..."
}

Get all generated files

curl http://localhost:8002/ticket/a1b2c3d4e5f6/artifacts | jq

Get a specific file

curl http://localhost:8002/ticket/a1b2c3d4e5f6/artifacts/auth/jwt.py | jq .content

Blocking / sync mode (for small tasks)

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"title": "Hello world script", "description": "Python script that prints hello world and current time"}'

Pipeline Stages

1. Planner Agent

  • Reads the ticket and produces a structured JSON plan

  • Chooses the minimal viable tech stack

  • Breaks work into numbered steps with file targets

  • Flags security concerns (OWASP Top-10)

  • Defines test strategy and CI/CD approach

2. Coder Agent

  • Generates production-ready code for every file in the plan

  • Uses Dev Agent :8001 when available (falls back to direct LLM)

  • Applies OWASP mitigations (input validation, parameterised queries, no hardcoded secrets)

  • Auto-retries with alternative approach on failure

3. Tester Agent

  • Generates unit + integration tests for every source file

  • Runs tests via the language's native test runner

  • On failure: asks LLM to fix the implementation and re-runs (loop)

  • Tracks coverage percentage

4. Reviewer Agent

  • Full security audit (uses Dev Agent :8001 + LLM bundle review)

  • Performance analysis

  • Documentation completeness check

  • Production readiness checklist (12 criteria)

  • Auto-fixes medium/low issues

  • Approves (score ≥ 75) or rejects with detailed feedback

Delivery

  • All files written to workspace/<slug>-<ticket_id>/

  • Git repository initialised with commit history

  • DELIVERY.md — full handover document

  • production-ready-<id> git tag applied when approved
