Ruv Swarm MCP Server

What if intelligence could be ephemeral, composable, and surgically precise? Welcome to ruv-FANN, a comprehensive neural intelligence framework that reimagines how we build, deploy, and orchestrate artificial intelligence. This repository contains three groundbreaking projects that work together to deliver unprecedented performance in neural computing, forecasting, and multi-agent orchestration.

People connecting AI & ML tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Rust.

01 · Install Ruv Swarm

Claude Code

claude mcp add ruvnet-ruv-fann -- npx -y ruv-swarm

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ruvnet-ruv-fann": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "ruv-swarm"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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