Clean Slice MCP Server

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives AI coding agents access to the CleanSlice architecture documentation. Connect it to Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible client so the AI knows how to build apps using CleanSlice conventions. Its README documents 4 tools, including get-started, list-categories, search. It is available as a remote MCP endpoint.

Teams that want a hosted documentation endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Clean Slice

Claude Code

claude mcp add cleanslice-mcp --transport http https://mcp.cleanslice.org/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cleanslice-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.cleanslice.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
