Sdd MCP

Learn Spec-Driven Development, then use it on real projects. One rule: no code until you approve a written spec. A script checks that rule every time you run it, and prints exactly what it looked at. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting automation tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

Claude Code

claude mcp add juanklagos-spec-driven-development-templ -- npx -y @juanklagos/sdd-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "juanklagos-spec-driven-development-templ": {

      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@juanklagos/sdd-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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