# mcp-use - Doramagic AI Context Pack > Purpose: pre-work context for the user's host AI. This pack does not prove that the project has been installed, run, or validated. ## Project - canonical_name: `mcp-use/mcp-use` - capability: The fullstack MCP framework to develop MCP Apps for ChatGPT / Claude & MCP Servers for AI Agents. - expected_user_outcome: The fullstack MCP framework to develop MCP Apps for ChatGPT / Claude & MCP Servers for AI Agents. ## Operating Boundaries - Do not claim that the project has been installed, run, called through an API, or used on local files unless separate evidence proves it. - Project facts must come from repo evidence, Claim Graph, or explicit source references. - When a capability is not verified, mark it as unverified instead of completing it as fact. - publish_status: `publishable` - blocking_gaps: none --- ## Doramagic Context Augmentation The following sections strengthen the repository context for a host AI. Human Manual data is a reading route, and pitfall notes become operating constraints. ## Human Manual Outline Usage rule: this is only a reading route and salience signal, not factual authority. Concrete claims must still return to repo evidence or Claim Graph. Host AI hard rules: - Do not treat page titles, section order, summaries, or importance values as factual project evidence. - When explaining the Human Manual outline, state that it is only a reading route or salience signal. - Capability, installation, compatibility, runtime state, and risk claims must cite repo evidence, source paths, or Claim Graph. - **Framework Overview and Architecture**: importance `high` - source_paths: README.md, libraries/typescript/package.json, libraries/python/pyproject.toml, libraries/typescript/packages/mcp-use/src/server/mcp-server.ts, libraries/python/mcp_use/server/server.py - **Building MCP Servers and Widgets (MCP Apps)**: importance `high` - source_paths: libraries/typescript/packages/mcp-use/src/server/index.ts, libraries/typescript/packages/mcp-use/src/server/tools/tool-registration.ts, libraries/typescript/packages/mcp-use/src/server/resources/index.ts, libraries/typescript/packages/mcp-use/src/server/widgets/mount-widgets-dev.ts, libraries/typescript/packages/mcp-use/src/react/useWidget.ts - **MCP Client, Agents, and LLM Adapters**: importance `high` - source_paths: libraries/typescript/packages/mcp-use/src/client.ts, libraries/typescript/packages/mcp-use/src/agents/mcp_agent.ts, libraries/typescript/packages/mcp-use/src/managers/server_manager.ts, libraries/typescript/packages/mcp-use/src/adapters/base.ts, libraries/python/mcp_use/client/client.py - **Inspector, CLI, Authentication, and Deployment**: importance `high` - source_paths: libraries/typescript/packages/inspector/src/client/App.tsx, libraries/typescript/packages/inspector/src/server/server.ts, libraries/typescript/packages/cli/src/index.ts, libraries/typescript/packages/cli/src/commands/deploy.ts, libraries/typescript/packages/cli/src/commands/servers.ts ## Repo Inspection Evidence - repo_clone_verified: true - repo_inspection_verified: true - repo_commit: `385e9fca8cdd783b4d7f2d7539b2441ef3ce6f27` - inspected_files: `README.md`, `docs/generate_docs.py`, `docs/docs.json`, `docs/README.md`, `docs/context7.json`, `docs/CLAUDE.md`, `docs/snippets/snippet-intro.mdx`, `docs/snippets/youtube-embed.mdx`, `docs/home/index.mdx`, `docs/home/templates.mdx`, `docs/home/mcp101.mdx`, `docs/inspector/cli.mdx`, `docs/inspector/rpc-logging.mdx`, `docs/inspector/command-palette.mdx`, `docs/inspector/index.mdx`, `docs/inspector/connection-settings.mdx`, `docs/inspector/changelog.mdx`, `docs/inspector/debugging-chatgpt-apps.mdx`, `docs/inspector/integration.mdx`, `docs/inspector/development.mdx` Host AI hard rules: - Without repo_clone_verified=true, do not claim that the source code has been read. - Without repo_inspection_verified=true, do not write README, docs, or package-file conclusions as facts. - Without quick_start_verified=true, do not claim that the Quick Start path has run successfully. ## Doramagic Pitfall Constraints These rules come from Doramagic discovery, validation, or compilation findings. The host AI must treat them as operating constraints, not background notes. ### Constraint 1: Installation risk requires verification - Trigger: Project evidence flags a installation risk. Review the linked source before relying on this workflow. - Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment. - Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user. - Evidence: community_evidence:github | https://github.com/mcp-use/mcp-use/issues/1727 - Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it. ### Constraint 2: Installation risk requires verification - Trigger: Project evidence flags a installation risk.
