### Description (declared)

# Guild MCP Server

AI Guild workflow pack tools via Model Context Protocol (JSON-RPC 2.0 over stdio).

Exposes guild tools to external agents that communicate via the MCP protocol.

## Tools Exposed

| Tool | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `guild_search` | Search for guild workflow packs by keyword |
| `guild_pull` | Fetch, validate, and store a pack locally |
| `guild_try` | Preview a pack without saving it |
| `guild_apply` | Execute a pack with phase tracking (start/checkpoint/complete) |
| `guild_publish` | Publish a pack or feedback to the guild repo |
| `guild_keygen` | Generate Ed25519 signing key for agent authentication |
| `guild_sign` | Sign a content hash with Ed25519 private key |

## Installation

### From source

```bash
cd /root/hermes-workspace/guild-mcp-package
pip install -e .
```

### Dependencies

- Python 3.10+
- `pyyaml>=6.0`
- `pynacl>=1.5.0` (optional, for key generation/signing)

## MCP Client Configuration

### Claude Code

Add to your `.claude/settings.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "guild": {
      "command": "guild-mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### Other MCP Clients

Configure your MCP client to spawn `guild-mcp` as a subprocess:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "guild": {
      "command": "guild-mcp",
      "args": []
    }
  }
}
```

## CLI Usage

### Start the server (stdio mode)

```bash
guild-mcp
```

The server reads JSON-RPC requests from stdin and writes responses to stdout.

### Python client library

```python
from guild_mcp.client import GuildMCPClient

# Using context manager
with GuildMCPClient() as client:
    # Search for packs
    result = client.call_tool("guild_search", {"query": "debugging"})
    print(result)

    # Pull a pack
    result = client.call_tool("guild_pull", {"uri": "guild://hermes/systematic-debugging"})

    # Apply a pack
    result = client.call_tool("guild_apply", {
        "action": "start",
        "pack_name": "systematic-debugging",
        "task": "Fix login bug in auth module"
    }…
