IANA: vnd.faf+yaml DOI: Context paper

Home: faf-mcp.vercel.app

The MCP you didn't realise you needed, or wanted but didn't know who to ask, is here. Building on 62,000+ downloads across the FAF ecosystem, we bring you faf-mcp to cure your syncing pain and fuel your chosen AI with optimized context, on-demand.

CI npm version License: MIT project.faf


Define once. Sync everywhere.

You maintain .cursorrules. Your teammate uses AGENTS.md. Someone on the team just switched to Gemini. Every AI tool wants its own context file — and they all say the same thing in different formats.

faf-mcp is the dedicated MCP server for Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, VS Code, and every non-Claude platform. One .faf file in your repo, synced to every format your team needs.

Three Ways to Deploy

Door

Method

Best For

Hosted

mcpaas.live

Zero-install, point any MCP client to the URL

Self-Deploy

Deploy to Vercel

Your own instance, full control

Local

npx faf-mcp

IDE integration via stdio transport

Hosted (mcpaas.live)

Point your MCP client to https://mcpaas.live/sse — no install, no config, no maintenance. Served from 300+ Cloudflare edges with sub-ms cold starts via 2.7KB Zig-WASM engine.

Self-Deploy (Vercel)

Deploy your own MCP server on Vercel in one click. Once deployed, your server exposes:

  • /health — Health check

  • /info — Server metadata + tool list

  • /sse — MCP Server-Sent Events transport

Cloud Sync

Share your FAF context globally via mcpaas.live:

Tool

Purpose

faf_cloud_publish

Upload to cloud, get shareable URL

faf_cloud_fetch

Pull context from cloud

faf_cloud_list

List available souls

faf_cloud_search

Search across souls

faf_cloud_share

Generate share links

Example Workflow:

# Upload your project.faf
faf_cloud_publish { soul_name: "my-project" }
→ https://mcpaas.live/souls/my-project

# Anyone can fetch it
faf_cloud_fetch { soul_name: "my-project" }
→ Context merged into local project.faf

Zero-install sharing - Recipients need no MCP setup. Served from 300+ Cloudflare edges with <1ms cold starts via 2.7KB Zig-WASM engine.


Eternal Bi-Sync

Your .faf file and your platform context files stay synchronized in milliseconds.

project.faf  ←── 8ms ──→  .cursorrules / AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md / GEMINI.md
                    Single source of truth
  • Update either side → both stay aligned

  • --all flag syncs to all four formats at once

  • Zero manual maintenance

  • Works across teams, branches, sessions

AI assistants forget. They drift. Every new session, AI starts guessing again. Bi-sync means context never goes stale.

use>faf | Prompt Pattern

Start every prompt with "Use FAF" to invoke MCP tools:

Use FAF to initialize my project
Use FAF to score my AI-readiness
Use FAF to sync my context
Use FAF to enhance my project

Works on all platforms — stops web search, forces tool usage.
