## Overview

`@jsonbored/opennextjs-mcp` is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI tools (like Cursor AI, Claude Desktop) to interact with your OpenNext.js Cloudflare projects locally. It provides programmatic access to project configuration, validation, deployment, and diagnostics through a standardized MCP interface.

### What is MCP?

[Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) is an open protocol that enables AI assistants to securely access external data sources and tools. This MCP server exposes your OpenNext.js project to AI tools, allowing them to:

- 📊 Query project status and configuration
- ✅ Validate project setup
- 🔍 Diagnose issues and suggest fixes
- 📖 Read configuration files
- 🚀 Assist with deployment
- 💡 Provide setup and troubleshooting guidance

### Key Features

- 🔧 **7 Tools** - Comprehensive project interaction capabilities
- 📚 **4 Resources** - Read project configuration files
- 💬 **3 Prompts** - Structured guidance templates
- 🔒 **Secure** - Runs locally via stdio (no network required)
- ⚡ **Fast** - Direct file system access
- 🎯 **Type-Safe** - Full TypeScript with Zod validation

## Installation

### Automatic Setup (Recommended)

The easiest way to set up the MCP server is using the CLI:

```bash
opennextjs-cli mcp setup
```

This automatically:
- Detects your MCP configuration file
- Adds the MCP server configuration
- Verifies the setup
- Provides restart instructions

### Manual Installation

#### 1. Install the Package

```bash
npm install -g @jsonbored/opennextjs-mcp
# or
pnpm add -g @jsonbored/opennextjs-mcp
```

#### 2. Configure MCP Client

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "opennextjs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@jsonbored/opennextjs-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}
```

**For Claude Desktop (macOS):**

Add to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:

## How It Works

### Architecture

```
AI Tool (Cursor/Claude Desktop)
    ↓
MCP Client
    ↓
MCP Server (@jsonbored/opennextjs-mcp)
    ↓
@jsonbored/opennextjs-cli/utils (shared utilities)
    ↓
OpenNext.js Project (local filesystem)
```

### Communication Flow

1. **AI Tool** requests information or action
2. **MCP Client** routes request to MCP server
3. **MCP Server** reads project files or executes tools
4. **MCP Server** returns data to MCP client
5. **AI Tool** receives information and provides assistance

### Stdio Transport

The MCP server uses stdio (standard input/output) transport, meaning:
- ✅ Runs locally (no network required)
- ✅ Secure (no external connections)
- ✅ Fast (direct file system access)
- ✅ Works offline

### Project Detection

The MCP server automatically detects the project directory from the current working directory when invoked by the MCP client. It looks for:

- `package.json` with Next.js dependency
- `wrangler.toml` or `open-next.config.ts` (optional, for OpenNext.js projects)

**Monorepo Support:**
- Automatically detects monorepo structure
- Finds Next.js projects within workspaces
- Works from any directory within monorepo

## Use Cases

### 1. Configuration Queries

```
User: "What's my current worker name?"
AI: [Calls get_project_status]
    → Extracts worker name
    → Answers: "Your worker name is 'my-app'"
```

### 2. Validation Assistance

```
User: "Is my configuration correct?"
AI: [Calls validate_configuration]
    → Reviews errors and warnings
    → Suggests fixes with documentation links
    → Provides step-by-step fix instructions
```

### 3. Troubleshooting

```
User: "Why is my deployment failing?"
AI: [Calls check_health]
    → [Reads wrangler.toml]
    → [Reads open-next.config.ts]
    → Analyzes configuration
    → Provides solutions
```

### 4. Setup Guidance

```
User: "Help me set up OpenNext.js"
AI: [Uses setup-opennextjs-project prompt]
    → Guides through setup process
    → Validates each step
    → Provides next steps
```

### 5. Configuration Updates

```
User: "Change my caching strategy to r2"
AI: [Calls update_configuration with cachingStrategy="r2"]
    → Updates wrangler.toml
    → Updates open-next.config.ts
    → Confirms: "Caching strategy updated to r2"
```

### 6. File Reading

```
User: "Show me my wrangler.toml"
AI: [Reads opennextjs://config/wrangler.toml]
    → Displays file content
    → Can analyze and suggest improvements
```

## Requirements

- **OpenNext.js Project** - Must be in an OpenNext.js Cloudflare project directory
- **MCP-Compatible AI Tool** - Cursor, Claude Desktop, or other MCP clients
- **@jsonbored/opennextjs-cli** - Automatically installed as dependency

## Configuration

### MCP Client Configuration

The MCP server is configured in your MCP client's configuration file:

**Claude Desktop (macOS):** `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`  
**Claude Desktop (Windows):** `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`  
**Claude Desktop (Linux):** `~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`

**Configuration Format:**
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "opennextjs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@jsonbored/opennextjs-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}
```

### Project Detection

The MCP server automatically detects the project directory from the current working directory when invoked by the MCP client. It looks for:

- `package.json` with Next.js dependency
- `wrangler.toml` or `open-next.config.ts` (optional, for OpenNext.js projects)

**Monorepo Support:**
- Automatically detects monorepo structure
- Finds Next.js projects within workspaces
- Works from any directory within monorepo

## Development

pnpm type-check
```

### Lint

```bash
pnpm lint
```

### Test

- **zod** - Schema validation

## Testing

The MCP package includes comprehensive tests:

- **28 tests** covering:
  - Server initialization
  - All 7 tools
  - All 4 resources
  - Registration functions

**Test Structure:**
- `src/__tests__/mcp-server.test.ts` - Server tests
- `src/__tests__/tools/` - Tool tests
- `src/__tests__/resources/` - Resource tests

**All tests use real file system operations** (no mocks).

See [MCP_TESTING.md](../../MCP_TESTING.md) for detailed testing documentation.

## Troubleshooting

### MCP Server Not Starting

1. Verify Node.js version: `node --version` (must be 18+)
2. Check package installation: `npm list -g @jsonbored/opennextjs-mcp`
3. Test manually: `npx @jsonbored/opennextjs-mcp@latest`
4. Check MCP configuration file syntax (must be valid JSON)

### AI Tool Not Recognizing Server

1. Verify MCP configuration file location
2. Check JSON syntax in configuration
3. Restart AI tool completely
4. Check AI tool logs for errors
5. Verify `npx` is available in PATH

### Project Not Detected

1. Ensure you're in a Next.js project directory
2. Verify `package.json` exists
3. Check that `next` is in dependencies
4. In monorepos, ensure you're in the correct workspace

### Tools Not Working

1. Verify project has OpenNext.js configured
2. Check that `wrangler.toml` exists (for some tools)
3. Ensure required dependencies are installed
4. Check that `@jsonbored/opennextjs-cli` is installed (dependency)

### Resources Return Errors

1. **"wrangler.toml not found"** - Run `opennextjs-cli add` to create it
2. **"open-next.config.ts not found"** - Run `opennextjs-cli add` to create it
3. **"package.json not found"** - Ensure you're in a Node.js project directory
