Contexture is a Python framework for exposing a large application capability
graph to agents without placing every tool and instruction in the model's
context at once. You declare Roles, Skills, and Tools; Contexture compiles an
immutable graph and serves a small, fixed MCP gateway that discloses only the
branch an agent chooses.

The same application runtime can back explicit REST routes for human
interfaces. Contexture is a Controller layer: it does not contain an agent
loop, call a model, or replace your business services.

- Python 3.11–3.14
- MCP stdio and Streamable HTTP

## Install

With [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/):

```bash
uv tool install contexture-mcp
contexture --version
```

Or add it to a Python project:

```bash
uv add contexture-mcp
# or: python -m pip install contexture-mcp
```

To pin this release, request `contexture-mcp==1.0.0`.

## Five-minute application

```bash
contexture new hello-context
cd hello-context
uv sync
uv run contexture check
```

The authoring model is deliberately small:

```python
from contexture import Contexture, Role, Skill, Tool

class CheckStatus(Tool):
    def __init__(self) -> None:
        super().__init__(
            name="check-status",
            description="Return the status of one service.",
            read_only=True,
        )

    async def invoke(self, service: str) -> dict[str, str]:
        return {"service": service, "status": "ready"}

class Diagnose(Skill):
    def __init__(self) -> None:
        super().__init__(
            name="diagnose",
            description="Diagnose an unhealthy service…
