### Description (declared)

# Hephaestus: Complete Anvil MCP Server

![Python Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/python-3.13+-blue.svg)
![Licence](https://img.shields.io/badge/licence-MIT-green.svg)
![Status](https://img.shields.io/badge/status-in%20development-orange.svg)

The comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for complete Anvil development coverage - from fundamental operations to advanced modern architecture patterns.

## Quick Start

Hephaestus provides intelligent tools for every aspect of Anvil development:

- **Modern Apps**: Material 3 + Reactive + Official Routing + Layouts + Model Classes
- **Legacy Apps**: Comprehensive support with guided modernisation paths
- **All Operations**: Data tables, authentication, forms, deployment, and beyond

### Installation

#### Preferred Method: uvx (Multi-Session Support)

For users who need multiple concurrent sessions or the latest version:

```bash
# Install uvx if you don't have it
pip install uvx

# Run Hephaestus MCP server
uvx hephaestus-mcp-server
```

**Why uvx?** Unlike global installation, uvx creates isolated environments that support multiple concurrent sessions without conflicts.

#### Alternative: Global Installation (Single Session Only)

```bash
pip install hephaestus-mcp-server
hephaestus-mcp-server
```

> **Note**: Global installation only supports single sessions and may cause conflicts with multiple concurrent MCP connections.

### MCP Client Configuration

Add Hephaestus to your MCP client configuration:

#### OpenCode
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hephaestus": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["hephaestus-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}
```

#### Claude Desktop
Add to `claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hephaestus": {
      "command": "uvx", 
      "args": ["hephaestus-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}
```

#### Global Installation Alternative
If using global installation:
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hephaestus": {
      "command": "hephaestus-mcp-server"
    }
  }
}
```
